Martin ShortThe thing in comedy is that once you start worrying about something not succeeding, you're frozen. There's no verdict on anything. You can make ยกThree Amigos!, and some people will at the time say, "Oh, that's too silly." Then five years later, silly is hip. Now it's considered art. I never comment on anything I do, because if I say anything negative about X film, or X TV show, or X project, people who saw it and loved it go, "Well, am I an idiot?"
