I put heavy emphasis on the characters.

You do what it takes. It was on me to deliver.

It's rare that you cut out something that is really good. You screen all of it, and when the audience doesn't respond, you cut out whatever is holding the story down.

I prefer the smaller budget versus the bigger budget because the mentality that goes along with big budget filmmaking doesn't really suit me; the mind-set that money is the answer.

We do nods to Charlie's Angels and Mission Impossible because they are popular with our fan base.

I'm not on all the time. I like to have fun and be funny, but I'm much more of a thinker.

I always prefer the big laugh. That is always the objective, especially with a film like Scary Movie 2
