It's all about escapism. That's essentially what all movies are about. It's a vicarious thrill.

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

There's such an awkwardness to most heterosexual male relationships. You see women who are friends, and they kiss each other good-bye, and they're just so much warmer with each other. But there's this thing with guys where, even between best friends, there's a standoffishness.

You know, if I started worrying about what the critics think, I'd never make another comedy. You couldn't pick a less funny group than critics - you couldn't find a more bitter group of people!

I'm not worried about young people seeing an opportunity and taking advantage of it.

I take it very seriously, music. I think it's one of the tools that a director has with which to kind of paint. The right music can sometimes do five pages of scripted dialogue.

I feel like movies when they work they'll find an audience.
