I'd recommend anyone watch 'Harold and Maude,' 'cause it helps a lot with fear of death.
The biggest thing for me, I hate going to concerts where no-one's moving. Everyone should be dancing and having a good time.
My parents were in high school and college in the '80s, so let's just say I've heard some stuff, man. We listen to a lot of music and watch lots of great films, but the real context they provide from that era is about politics.
I'd love to make a horror movie, that's definitely where I want to be one day.
I'd seen all of John Hughes's movies. All the Spielberg stuff. A bunch of '80s horror, like 'Evil Dead.'
I'd actually love to do more comedy, but what I really wanna do is an indie drama - an intense indie road-trip movie.
My dad would play 'The Blue Album' a lot, the first Weezer album, and that influenced my alternative indie thing and that's kind of how I found tons and most of my favorite bands.
It's intriguing to me, when I see a horror script, or something like that, that's actually original. I think that's why I love 'Stranger Things,' because it's not just horror, it's everything, and when they use horror it's right.
Jason Reitman is an amazing director; he's really amazing with his actors and crew.
I probably saw 'Jaws' when I was 10.
Jonah Hill is super cool.
I love Nirvana, Joy Division, and New Order - older alternative, I guess.
Obviously 'Stranger Things' has given me the launching pad to have creative license for whatever I want, and I love doing the show, but when it comes to music, I want to distance myself as much as possible.
I need time to do whatever I want to do. What happens to an actor that has no life experience? They don't know how to act as a different role. So, that's really important to do.
If I lounge around for too long, I get really bored. I have to be doing something.
Messing up lines is always embarrassing for me.
The aliens from 'Attack the Block' - I thought they were some of the most unique and creative movie monsters I had ever seen. From the jet-black hair to the neon blue teeth.
Pup, who's like the most amazing, they're keeping rock 'n' roll and punk alive.
I guess with a Netflix show, if you're a kid, it's all dependent on how you're raised and if you have access to it.
I learn a new thing every single day about acting, about directing, about producing.
