River Phoenix and I were friends for nine years, and I watched him grow and mature, and I also saw him struggle. I watched him deal with the whole up and down aspects of Hollywood and saw him bounce back, so when he passed away, it was such an enormous shock.

Famous Quotes by Zach Galligan
L.A. is a very strange place. On the surface, it has an innocent appearance, like the stranger with a pleasant face that smiles and shakes your hand. But then you learn it is actually a lot less nice than you think, and there’s a whole deeper, darker level.

Before ‘Gremlins,’ I was a normal person, then within two weeks of the movie coming out, I couldn’t walk into a store without people turning around and staring. It’s exciting and also scary because everyone starts telling you how amazing you are.

I knew a ton of actors and was friends with them, but I never dated actresses. I tried to date ‘normal’ people because the Hollywood dating rule is ‘one star per couple’ because it’s quite a challenge to match the egos of two actors.

What drives that desire to destroy Paris Hilton? What drives that desire to venerate Angelina Jolie? I do understand it, but it still baffles me. It baffles me when people treat me specially and differently because I just want to look at them and go, ‘What are you talking about? I’m just a person.’

Best Quotes on Zach Galligan

Discovering L.A., in particular in the early ’80s, was pretty spectacular; it was fun and carefree, and there was not nearly as much traffic as exists today. It was very much the last gasps of the Beach Boys’ ideal view of L.A.: sun, the beach, cars, blondes, etc.

I think one of the reasons ‘Gremlins’ lasts and some other films don’t is because I don’t think the movie has a whole lot of dated things – sure, the cars, my hair, and few things here and there that date the movie – but it takes place in a sort of every town, in a sorta non-specific time, and that gives the movie a timeless quality.
Zach Galligan
The gremlins are clearly the ones have the most fun in the film, trashing the town, going to the bar, smashing things, etc. It’s all gleeful chaos, which makes the movie fun.

Being on a lunchbox was awesome, and being on a thermos was pretty cool, too.

I was never really acting. I was not taking it seriously. Acting was very much a hobby for me. It wasn’t really until I was finishing college and doing it sporadically that I began to take it seriously.

You have to determine what you are and send the messages out to people, like, ‘Hey, I’m a screenwriter – look at this.’ You can’t sit around, wondering why people aren’t calling and asking about my writing.

If you stop and think about who was in the ‘Lassie’ movies, it’s difficult to think who was in them, apart from Elizabeth Taylor. You remember the dog, not the people! So if you’re going to be in a movie, and it’s called ‘Gremlins’, it’s going to be about Gremlins, and what people are going to remember is the Gremlins.
