Definitely River Phoenix is somebody that I thought, ‘This guy is very cool.’ I wanted to be like him when I was a kid.

My sister and I said, Dad, are you doing to do anything about that? And he mentioned treatments other people sent him that he’d been working on. So we thought it would be kind of cool to give these guys a real script.

They use all of the music that I did in the ’50s, ’60s and the ’70s behind people like Tupac and LL Cool J. I’m into all that stuff.

I’m a guy who likes to watch something cool, creepy and suspenseful and there is no show to watch as an adult that would scare me at for even four seconds.

I’m a geeky toy collector, and to have toys of your own characters is unbelievably cool.

I just saw the movie for the first time in its entirely last night. It’s really cool when you’re in with an audience that’s so tuned in and plugged in to what’s going on.

I am working on a dress sock line of funky, colorful, cool designs.

We had a huge audience, we sold truckloads of albums. If we do something that’s cool, people will listen to it. If we don’t, we would be selling people short.

Do you want to be an actor, or do you want to be a celebrity? I made that decision when I went to Juilliard. I wanted to be an actor. So, if I get the opportunity to be an actor and do some cool, fun and interesting projects, I’m going to do that.
