The rules are very important in a horror movie.

I am a great believer in found families and I'm not a great believer in blood.

Try taking a stand on just one leg. You need to see both sides.

You know what? I was wrong. You are an idiot. My life happens to, on occasion, suck beyond the telling of it. Sometimes more than I can handle.

I'd rather make a show 100 people need to see, than a show that 1000 people want to see.

There's a reason Tony Stark makes fun of 'Thor,' and mentions 'Shakespeare' in the park in 'The Avengers.' It's great to play high drama and comedy alongside a modern story.

What 'Scream' was great at was presenting ironic detachment and then making you actually care about the people that were having it, and juxtaposing it with their situation, all in the service of making a great horror movie. It was fresh.
