More quotes by Vin Diesel
The video game culture was an important thing to keep alive in the film because we're in a new era right now. The idea that kids can play video games like Grand Theft Auto or any video game is amazing. The video games are one step before a whole other virtual universe.
Vin Diesel
I can't go white, Indian, Asian, Latin. For me, in my existence, if I'm anything, I'm inclusive of everyone, and we are just one, and I hope that global harmony is in all of us.
Vin Diesel
The whole year I was in LA I got into telemarketing and learned how to make money. Five years later that skill helped me make my first film.
Vin Diesel
It's very rewarding to see the movie, and it's very rewarding to make the movie, but playing the character [Riddick] is sometimes a lot more difficult than other characters because it takes so much preparation to get into that character.
Vin Diesel
My gut feeling about sequels is that they should be premeditated: You should try to write a trilogy first or at least sketch out a trilogy if you have any faith in your film.
Vin Diesel
Any film that you see is never just the director. If it's a film that you love, it's not so easy to say, Oh it's directed by this person - that means everything that person directs is going be wonderful.
Vin Diesel
You make movies for the people. If critics happen to like them too, well, that's a home run.
Vin Diesel
Riddick is an antihero. He's the quintessential antihero. We all know how much I love antiheroes. It takes you 45 minutes in the movie just for Riddick to understand the word heroism, let alone for anyone to hope that he can be heroic.
Vin Diesel
I'm a New Yorker. I always have issues with trust - you adopt it from being a New Yorker.
Vin Diesel
I've turned down twentysomething million dollars for movies.
Vin Diesel
My mom used to say that I became a fighter and a scrapper and a tough guy to protect who I am at my core.
Vin Diesel
With age, you get to a place where you don't want to knock people out. You just want to give people a hug.
Vin Diesel
Vin Diesel had to hire a babysitter.
Vin Diesel
Film is my hobby, so I will work well through the night to develop films, whatever film I'm doing or dream projects I have.
Vin Diesel
IT don't matter if you win by an inch or a milewinning is winning!!
Vin Diesel
Video games are one step before a whole other virtual universe.
Vin Diesel
If it's an amazing role, I'll do anything.
Vin Diesel
Choosing the car you drive is like choosing your wardrobe, maybe even more important.
Vin Diesel
I don't think a lot of actors talk about it, but there's usually a process where you essentially purge yourself of the character that you played prior to the movie.
Vin Diesel
The majority of the filmmaking process is in pre-production. The more you've planned out the more freedom there is on set to find new stuff, to play around, find new jokes and let the actors kind of breathe - but it needs to come from a place where it's completely structured.
