When I was a little kid, I used to say, I would rather host the Oscars than win an Oscar. To me, that seemed like the more appealing, fun gig.

More quotes by Seth Rogen
It always seems crazy to tell people what to expect. That never works! So, I don't know what to say, other than that they can expect me.
Seth Rogen
I'd moved to L.A., and everyone's actors here and writers, they were like super emotional and super in touch with their feelings, and it seemed like every two weeks one of my friend just coming to me and, like, you hurt my feelings the other day, dude.
Seth Rogen
I mean, where I come from, 'communism' is not a terrible word.
Seth Rogen
Those are the movies that we [with Evan Goldberg] always wanted to make. Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, the kind of movies where violence and comedy and characters kind of work together really well.
Seth Rogen
If there was any drug that was to symbolize the people that ate our heroes, it seems like bath salts was a good idea. It's also a drug that, I think, is still funny to a lot of people.
Seth Rogen
I've never really had a real job. When I was young doing stand-up, I'd get 50 bucks a week here or 100 bucks a week there. You know, sometimes for headlining one of the rooms, or MC-ing, or something like that. So yeah, I've never had like a normal job.
Seth Rogen
I think people do get better as the movies go on sometimes, and I'm always happy that we're shooting out of order, so it's kind of scattered throughout the movie, and there isn't like a clear build in everyone finding their characters.
Seth Rogen
It's the weirdest thing. Evan [Goldberg] was just telling me how weird it is that we won't be working on Sausage Party, to which I said, Hopefully, we'll be working on Sausage Party 2. It was almost ten years ago when we came up with the idea.
Seth Rogen
My mom drives me crazy sometimes, but I have a good relationship with her.
Seth Rogen
I liked actions movies. Jean-Claude Van Damme was a major influence on me at that point in my life.
Seth Rogen
We really wanted it to be an action movie. Those are the movies that we love. We're big fans of like Shane Black movies, when we were younger - me and Evan [Goldberg].
Seth Rogen
I guess it's a kind of a goal for any actor to be the lead of a movie. Not for ego reasons, but because it is creatively the biggest challenge.
Seth Rogen
Honestly, it's really hard improvising and it's really stressful and humiliating at times. You're taking really big swings that potentially are eating up a lot of people's time and resources at set in your attempt to discover something funny.
Seth Rogen
If you ask most high schoolers who Bruce Lee is, they will say that it someone they sit next to in English class.
Seth Rogen
I think around that time I met David [Gordon Green] or, well, we all met at Superbad and Judd [Apatow] said, 'I'm thinking about having him direct [ Knocked Up].' Sounded like a good idea.
Seth Rogen
I don't think all of my ideas are good. It's almost easier when people are critical of you because it helps with the quality control.
Seth Rogen
We just kind of wanted to play with these iconic moments of action. There's a really small one that always makes me laugh really hard, where there's a big shootout at the end, and the moment my gun runs out of bullets, I turn and there's just another gun sitting there, and I'm, like, oh, nice.
Seth Rogen
I don't make the best movies in the world, but at times, I do feel like I'm adding something to the cinematic community.
Seth Rogen
I knew I just loved comedy, and I think it was my parents who initially brought up the notion of me trying to do stand-up. I think I actually tried writing jokes just at home, just kind of sitting around. But it seemed like a very real way to step into the world of comedy.
Seth Rogen
They [Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg] thought of this brilliant pot, or whatever, movie [Pineapple Express], an action movie and I guess they figured in a small role for a blonde. And they say that I did my part well. I added tears to the movie.
