The director is the only person on the set who has seen the film. Your job as a director is to show up every day and know where everything will fit into the film.

With a suit, even if you're having a nervous breakdown, you still look like you're in charge.

In my years of acting, the one thing I was never able to do convincingly was to laugh on camera. Fake-laugh.

In a perfect world, I'd love to make 90-minute movies, but for me, a movie needs to be as long or short as it can sustain itself.

Katie Dippold, who I wrote the script with, she's very into ghosts and all that. So I go, "Hey, why don't you talk to Katie?"

People are like, "Why are you all dressed up? Did you dress up just for me?" I'm like "No, I dressed up because I'm an adult and I felt like putting on my suit." But I love it. Tom Ford and Ralph Lauren are my two heroes of clothing designers.

There's nothing worse than the sequel that's a letdown from the first movie.
