We’ve been blessed with an incredible team behind us – Scott Borchetta and everybody at Dot Records. They’re not afraid of taking chances, and we aren’t either, so it is the dream team we’ve got behind us.
I got a lot of inspiration and encouragement from my friend and ultra-runner Scott Jurek.
I’ve always been a massive fan of Killian Scott and Tom Vaughan-Lawlor anyways, so to get to work with them was absolutely a bonus.
The visual team of ‘Blade Runner’ – one of the last big fantasy movies to be made without much computer graphics finery – worked directly for Scott, who sketched each of his prolific ideas on paper (they were called ‘Ridley-grams’).
Thankfully, I found a doctor at Presbyterian Hospital in New York, Scott Hammer, who diagnosed my chronic fatigue as the Epstein-Barr virus, and the medication I took either helped jump-start my immune system or made the virus dormant. I was very lucky.
Movie directors who have filmed F. Scott Fitzgerald’s ‘The Great Gatsby’ believe it’s a big book looming inside a small one, and they aren’t altogether wrong.
I actually do like scary movies. I used to hate scary movies. You know, when I was young, I saw ‘The Changeling,’ with George C. Scott, which I think is the scariest movie ever made. After I saw that, I swore I would never see a horror film again. Then I started making them.
I toured with Skrillex, did an HBO commercial with Diplo. In the hip hop movement, I was the first artist Travis Scott ever featured with before he blew up. I had the songs with Chris Brown and Tyga. I’ve worked with some of the biggest artists in the world.
‘Island of the Blue Dolphins’ by Scott O’Dell had a huge impact on me.
Brian Johnson is the reason I became a Bon Scott fan.
The one thing about working with Scott Coker – I’ve never heard a bad thing about Scott Coker. And that means a lot, especially in our sport.
Why was the amendment, expressly declaring the right of the people to exclude slavery, voted down? Plainly enough now, the adoption of it would have spoiled the niche for the Dred Scott decision.
Ridley Scott is a cinematic master and a great man. It was a real honour working with him on ‘Prometheus.’
I have this horrible weakness. I fall in love with my characters. ‘Suspect’ started as a one-shot, but I just love Maggie so much, and I love Maggie and Scott and what they have going.
A coach I had in Spain, Scott Roth, he used to call me Zinger. He would yell at me all the time, ‘Zinger!’ It’s just stuck in my head that I don’t like that name.
Kris Commons and Scott Brown are key players for Celtic.
I heard Smokey Robinson was singing one of my songs on the radio the other day. Being in the presence of Mavis Staples, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott – Stevie Wonder joined me on stage recently. That blows me away.
When it comes to ’90s R&B, I grew up on a lot of Aaliyah and Destiny’s Child, Missy Elliott, Usher, Jill Scott. Whatever my mom was playing in the house is what I was listening to.
Ridley Scott’s ‘Prometheus’ is a magnificent science-fiction film, all the more intriguing because it raises questions about the origin of human life and doesn’t have the answers.
The brilliance of Adam Scott is that he is so damn funny in a straight man role.
I read for ‘Reservoir Dogs,’ and it got down to me and Buscemi, and Quentin couldn’t make up his mind. I really wanted that part, but Buscemi is great in that. I also got really close on ‘Gladiator,’ but Ridley Scott decided on Russell Crowe, who’s perfect in it.
We haven’t sat down with Scott and Caroline and said, Now you realize that there’s X amount of pounds of thrust. And this can happen and that can happen.
I’m a huge sports guy, so getting messages from guys I grew up watching and following – Scott Van Pelt, Chris Paul, Charles Barkley, Adam Schefter – was really special.
I trained with a guy by the name of Scott Casey. He actually worked with WWE back in the day, but he didn’t become a big star. What I want to teach is what he taught me: that the smallest things are what people are really looking for.
Tony Scott, Walter Hill, Michael Mann – I’m a big action fan, full stop. And even though Michael Mann is the more celebrated film-maker than Tony Scott, I love them both in different ways.
Watch out for guys like Scott Piercy and Danny Willett. They both play really good on fast, fast greens.
My breakthrough as a reader was when I discovered the European adventure story writers – Alexander Dumas, Robert Louis Stevenson, Sir Walter Scott, to name a few.
I have always been a huge fan of Ridley Scott and certainly when I was a kid. ‘Alien’, ‘Blade Runner’ just blew me away because they created these extraordinary worlds that were just completely immersive. I was also an enormous Stanley Kubrick fan for similar reasons.
My father was a very strong male figure to me as a child. He was very dashing, had a wonderful sense of humor and was romantically handsome in the Scott Fitzgerald genre.
‘Scott and Bailey’ was very much forensically interested in the ins and outs of the way they went about cracking a case from the point of something happening to how they managed to arrest someone.
Travis Scott is definitely a big inspiration. Lil Wayne was a big one. Lil Wayne, 50 Cent. Those were my two, like, big ones growing up. Then I got into Mac Miller, Wiz Khalifa phase.
My biggest style inspirations come from the ’90s. I’m really inspired by TLC, Janet Jackson, and designers like Jeremy Scott. I’m hugely inspired by Club Kids from New York back in the ’90s. I’m inspired by the drag queen scene. Combat boots and the torn off jeans and a baggy shirt – I love that look.
I don’t think there’s anything cliche feminine about Jane Austen. And, anyway, her earliest champions were Sir Walter Scott and the Prince Regent.
I got to be good friends with Scott Hamilton.
The one that I’ve always wanted – and I have Scott Rudin in my way blocking it – is ‘Blood Meridian,’ which Cormac McCarthy has offered to adapt into a screenplay.
To my three sons, Peter, Scott, and Alexander who pulled me from the 18th Century and back into the present on a regular basis and therefore made me a better person, thank you. And to my wife, who sits at the table there. Who is right about almost everything.
Most recently we’ve been working in concert situations rather than clubs. because there aren’t too many rooms there like Ronnie Scott’s, that are pure music rooms, where people come specifically to listen to music.
You have to know what you’re doing, you have to be experienced. You can’t just say, ‘I’m an actress in ‘Scott & Bailey,’ I’m going to write an episode.’
We all contribute to The National, and it’s like a familiar family. Matt is dad, Brian’s like the dark horse uncle, Scott’s the long-suffering mum, and Aaron and I are the bratty twins.
I’m heavily involved in the creative with choreographer Christopher Scott. I go to rehearsals with ‘Glee’ and then practice with LXD till about midnight.
Scott Ritter is a very well-known archetype of a certain U.S. military officer. Very hard talking, very ambitious, zealous, and completely consumed with carrying out his mission. He’s a guy who, throughout his career, I would say, did not break rules, but he worked around road blocks.
I think, ‘Scott Pilgrim,’ it was something where the general audience didn’t necessarily understand straight away what it was.
Architectural kitsch is most common in the commercial pop vernacular – typified by the Big Duck of 1931 in Flanders, New York, a Long Island roadside poultry stand resembling a duck, which Venturi and Scott Brown made a cult object through their writings.
West Orange, where I grew up, is the hometown of Ian Ziering from ‘Beverly Hills, 90210,’ Scott Wolf from ‘Party of Five,’ David Cassidy from the ‘Partridge Family,’ and Mike Pitt of ‘Boardwalk Empire’ and ‘Dawson’s Creek.’
The tune ‘All My Friends,’ we recorded because our friend who wrote the song, Scott Boyer, passed way, and Gregg Allman had passed and he had recorded the song on his first solo record.
Look I can’t get into the minds of people who made decisions to support us or support anybody else. But I can tell you that Scott Lively, a lot of what he says and a lot of what he believes doesn’t belong in public discourse.
One night I went over to get some dope from some Hollywood tough guy. After I left, my son Scott, who was only fifteen, went over with a baseball bat to kill him. I was laughing out of one eye and crying out of the other. I thought, Who am I kidding?
I am honored to have been chosen by Gov. Scott to serve Floridians as their lieutenant governor.
What does my performance have to do with Russell Crowe’s? Nothing. If I play Gladiator and we all play Gladiator with Ridley Scott in the same amount of time, maybe we have a chance to see who did it best.
A presidential candidate changing churches is hardly unusual. Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, and Rand Paul have all aligned themselves with different faiths throughout their lives.
Before I was married to Martin and became a King, I was a proud Scott, shaped by my mother’s discernment and my father’s strength.
I don’t think Amber taped Scott or testified for money, but the opportunity certainly presented itself. It makes me a bit uncomfortable, but at least she never sold the story before trial to the tabloids.
