Quotes

  • Wet and Wild (April 4, 1994)

• I'll put it this way, it's like when you play football and you put on all the gear — the shoes and the pads and the helmet. At first, it's bulky and cumbersome. But then, when you go in the game and you start to play, you don't even know you have it on. Swimming in the suit was like that. Once you get into it, you forget about the suit.
  • Ricou Browning performed swimmingly as movie monster (April 26, 2013)
