The only suggestions I get on my plays is to make them more of what they already are, and that's wonderful.

Acting is a weird, kind of alienating job because you're in an isolated place. Even if you're working with a lot of other people, you're kind of alienated. Actors say that a lot, and I kind of find that to be true.

I don't attribute an actor's great success to their own individual performance when it's something as collaborative as a movie.

I write plays instinctively. I don't like writing movie scripts.

Devils don't come from hell beneath us, they come from the sky.

A lot of times the character's experience is not in accordance with the tone of the movie and it's not really my job to account for the tone of the movie. That's the director's job.

In 'Zombieland,' it was such a freewheeling plot it almost didn't matter what the characters were doing scene to scene as long as there was a consistent banter.
