I like to approach comedy from character, to have the stakes for the individuals in the story be very high.

The best movies are rooted in reality.

I love the unexpected and I think that's why documentary is an attractive genre to me because you don't know where it's going to go, so I tend to involve that as much as possible in the production process.

I'm a bit of a hacker fanatic and know a fair bit about that industry and cyber crime and cyber warfare.

Some of the best ideas come sort of out of nowhere and when you're not expecting it.

People who can't afford their mortgages and have to renegotiate with the bank or something gets repossessed after you worked your whole life. You follow the rules and you do the right thing and you still get screwed. That's what I think a lot of Americans are.

I think that having comedy where people talk the way they really talk, when you talk with your friends and whatever, it's really, it's important. Or else you're making stuff that's a little bit watered down and irrelevant.
