More quotes by Simon Pegg
One thing that irritates me is when people kind of make assumptions.
Simon Pegg
When you're a student and you just want some money to feel like you're an adult, you'll pretty much do anything within reason.
Simon Pegg
You grow up watching certain films or admiring certain filmmakers, and to write a love letter to one and have them validate it, it's extraordinary.
Simon Pegg
Being a geek is extremely liberating
Simon Pegg
If I was a supervillain, I think I'd probably ban all smoking and drinking. That's exactly what I'd do: I'd remove all the cigarettes and alcohol from the world. That would piss so many people off. That's worse than, like, murdering puppies. For some people.
Simon Pegg
A movie is a creative process from its conception, through its writing, to its execution, to the editing. I think with the best films there is some kind of contribution from one person all the way through that. The best films are made by people who write, direct, and edit, so there's continuity.
Simon Pegg
Happiness is where you start from rather than where you go. God, I sound like Yoda.

Nira Park, who is my longtime producer and friend - I've know her since we did Spaced, the TV show - she gave me this script the last day of filming The World's End. She said, Take a look at this. It's filming in London next year, and you might like to look at Jack. I trust Nira implicitly.

I like to work in films, but I'd love to work in the technical side of film. I'd love to work with, say, Greg Nicotero [The Walking Dead] in kind of, like, special makeup effects. I'd probably say, Good with clay and latex. Although I don't know what kind of job that'd get me.

Rory is very established in England, which you are seeing right now with Bond. But his father Roy Kinnear was a very, very beloved comedy actor here in the UK. And Rory actually even looks a bit like his dad. And so it makes a lot of sense to me that Rory has such good comic chops because it's in his blood. He's very, very funny as Sean.
Simon Pegg
As a kid, I was a huge fan of movies and acting. My mom was in the sort of community theater, and I always hung around down there, and I was a massive fan of everything I'm kind of involved in now. But fairly ordinary and cheeky.
Simon Pegg
That's always important to us, is being truthful. Not guessing, not making any assumptions. Just coming at it with knowledge.
Simon Pegg
American audiences tend to be more expressive than British ones.
Simon Pegg
Also, if you watch the film once, there are lots of things that you won't get because there are punch lines in the first act, the setup to which isn't until the second act.
Simon Pegg
If I did a TV show, it would have to be in North London because I'm a bit of a homebody, and my work takes me away from home enough. But yeah absolutely. Television has never been more exciting than it is now.
Simon Pegg
We don't watch the film anymore because we've seen it so many times, so we'll introduce it, walk out and we'll come back in right about when I wake up in the morning and walk over to the shop and everything's changed.
Simon Pegg
Now there's a whole generation of filmmakers who grew up making their own films with video cameras, and have dined entirely on a diet of popular culture. It's been reflected in a lot of their work. It's self-reflective, it's quite knowing, but it's very literate.
Simon Pegg
The worst and the best that the internet ever did was give everybody a voice.
Simon Pegg
I used to lie in bed in my flat and imagine what would happen if there was a zombie attack.
Simon Pegg
The simple fact is that what you see on the screen is pretty much real.
