Quotes

Jason W. Schaver

  • [When asked "Are you like the character you played in "The Truth About Average Guys"?] I get asked this a lot (mainly from women I'm interested in dating). "Troy" is me if I drank a lot. He's not a bad guy, but he has no tact whatsoever. I am probably more like "Jason" than I am "Troy," but I didn't think I had the chops to play "Jason" so I decided to play "Troy" at the last minute.
  • [Asked what lessons did you learn while making making "The Truth About Average Guys"?] I definitely learned that I need to find balance. It's okay to be focused and driven, but not at the expense of those closest to you. That is definitely something I will be more aware of in future relationships. Sometimes you have to take a step back and say "it's just a movie, it can wait".
  • Honestly, if you've seen enough movies it's not really that hard to write one, especially if it's a movie you'd like to see. "The Truth About Average Guys" is a movie I would go see if someone else had made it
  • I got a lot smarter once I realized I didn't know shit.
  • I'm indie because I'm poor, not because I think it's some sort of badge of honor. A filmmaker that acts like they choose to be indie is lying.
  • A script isn't finished until it's made into a movie.
