On the success of the movie:

I wasn’t surprised by the success, I was thankful. Being on tour all over the country, you see all of these people and they say, “We’re going, Tyler. We’re going to support you. We’re going to support you.” And then they go so I was grateful. I knew they were there, but to have them go was a whole ‘nother thing. I was grateful. I was so thankful to God for that to happen.
