Line 12 ⟶ 13:
Popularly believed to be dumb (most likely due to his [[Bill and Teds Excellent Adventure|breakout role]] and shyness in interviews), he is actually ridiculously well-read and contemplative. He often talks about the philosophical meaning he sees in his characters, even the silly ones. He's also famous as an incredibly [[Nice Guy]] and purportedly one of the most normal, well-adjusted people in Hollywood. How far this is based on fact, only his friends can say, but one possible translation of his first name is "[[Awesome McCoolname|The Coolness]]", so...
Also seems incapable of making a movie without saying "whoa" at least once. See above quote.
Line 24 ⟶ 23:
He frequently wagers [[SNL|eleventy billion dollars]].
