John Goodman's pretty dark - I love John Goodman.

Reality television hasn't killed documentaries, because there are so many great documentaries still being made, but it certainly has changed the landscape.

Directors tend to be more underrated than overrated because it's a quiet job and people don't really understand it.

My dog's a gentleman.

My movies before tend to be just funny. But it wasn't a conscious thing I was looking for at all.

When you work on a movie or a TV show, you're a family, so if something that's a two-minute thing in the movie is causing a rift in the family, you also have to think about at what point do you fight this, and at what point is this rift worth having in this very small, very tight group of people who are just there to make something great and funny.

I make decisions to do movies based on the cast. I'd just been working with Zach Galifianakis on 'The Hangover', and I was thinking, I've got to find something to do with this guy immediately.
