    1. > “I don’t have much interest in those kinds of roles. With the Green Goblin, I didn’t feel like getting up at 4am for five or six hours of makeup. And with ‘Mission: Impossible III,’ I didn’t want to be the guy trying to kill Tom Cruise. If you’re the bad guy in a big movie like that, audiences remember it forever. I prefer to keep things looser and less predictable.”

      “It’s not because I’m a massive dickhead that I don’t do big roles, it’s because I’m too cool”

      Why does Billy Bob Thornton look like the lead singer for an indie band that does sea shanties?

      He clearly knows how much shit Malcolm McDowell got for killing Captain Kirk.

      On one hand, someone casting Billy Bob Thornton as Norman Osborne is absolutely unhinged.

      On the other, its really easy for me to imagine him shouting “Parker!” with thick and convincing disdain.

    6. I think it would have been fun to see him opposite Cruise. Both actors tend to really dig into their roles.
