I thought a great line in the What Just Happened movie said, "We're just the mayonnaise."

Even back in the '90s, I shot certain things on something that wasn't digital then, but it was on VHS with a smaller camera and we would up it to film.

They're intimidating the networks and levying these fines, so the networks are not sure of what they can or can't do.

I think when Sarah Palin opened her mouth and started talking, the more she talked, the less appealing she became.

Producers - we always think, "Well, producers are very powerful," but producers don't really have the power. It's the appearance they might, but they don't. Even the actors don't. Even the studio heads don't, because they're beholden to this corporation and what the corporation wants. So no one really has the power, and everybody's trying to get through the day, and everybody's nervous and desperate.

You have a movie and it proves itself and then certain things happen.

I don't know that you can do it as a satire. I mean, the business is crazy enough as it is. It's like doing Wag The Dog - we took a thing that was almost completely absurd on one level, and then ultimately those things came about.
