Just making a good movie is hard to do.

There are two phases to a movie. First you shoot the movie, and then you make the movie. Generally, post-production is longer than filming.

We've seen so many films now, that you have to be on par with the best films that have preceded you. You just can't make any movie and it will be good

Comedy has a responsibility to be a voice of society, so within that, there's always going to be those that talk about those subjects and things that are going on in the world.

A comedian, or any artist, needs their time to develop what they are doing. There has to be some respect for the art form and when it's allowed to be seen.

I put heavy emphasis on the characters.

You never really know until you put the movie in front of an audience. I am a big advocate of screenings, which are getting harder and harder to do nowadays.
