She was razzing me on the set, ... 'This movie will bring you up in the world - no more little independents for you.'

I like doing the action and the romantic comedy stuff.

It was a bunch of young girls, ... They were standing in close proximity. I said, 'Hi. How are you?' One of them asked (he puts on a high girly voice), 'Are you Matt from 13 Going on 30 ?' They were nice and everything. But I usually like to be low-key and private.

Sometimes I catch her looking at me a bit more amorously than usual. It certainly is the type of thing that doesn't hurt a love life. She keeps me in check when 13-year-old girls come running up to me.

I can't just 'Jim Carrey' something like that, ... I don't have that kind of genius. So I went and hired a clown and we did isolating exercises, where one part of your body does one thing and another part does something else. And then, at 2 in the morning, after working on it for hours, I was lying down, and I thought, 'Oh my God, I've got it now!'

You get sick and s- goes wrong and you're bonked - you don't know where you're going to end up, how it's gonna turn out, ... That sort of thing changes you, the way you live your life. It teaches you to take less and less for granted.

The differences between us as actors, Reese and I, seem to play out between us in our parts, ... I come from doing a lot of theater and I like rehearsals, while Reese jumps straight in. We're unlikely romantic leads that work well together.

It's not my favorite genre, generally, ... But I want to do it. I wanted to try my hand at it, because I was hearing around town, people saying that I couldn't do it. 'Mark Ruffalo can't do comedy. Mark Ruffalo can't be a romantic lead.' And so I was like, 'Those are fighting words, my friend.'
