"I'm so proud of this movie. It's, like, the first movie that really kind of examines what a relationship is like between a guy and his dealer. It's almost like a love story." James Franco responds to being awarded High Times' Stoner of the Year for Pineapple Express [WENN via Starpulse]

"They've killed people, they've hurt people, they've crippled people, they've done all kinds of crazy things. You'd have to show that for real and I think there was a little bit of reticence about doing that ultimately." —writer-director Larry Charles on why his biographical film about Mötley Crüe might be too dangerous to make [ComingSoon]

"[It's] pretty much exactly the same … except [DiCaprio] can drink legally now and he's no longer a virgin." Russell Crowe on working with Leonardo DiCaprio after a decade [Extra via Us]

"Thor, at his best, has always had a classical bent to the character in terms of his history, the way he speaks, and the often Shakespearean intrigues and dramas that surround him. That kind of dialogue and character needs the hand of someone who comes from a theatrical/classically trained background in order for it not to sound forced or artificial." —comic-book writer J. Michael Straczynski on why Kenneth Branagh is one of the few directors capable of bringing Thor's greatness to the big screen [Splashpage/MTV]

"The name of a Bond film is not about anything. Live And Let Die? Octopussy? What does it mean? It means very little." Daniel Craig admits that Quantum of Solace is nonsense [Sun UK]
