I like doing character movies. I like doing movies about personal situations; that's what I love about dealing with things.

I put so much pop culture in my movies because we speak about pop culture all the time. But, for some reason, movies exist in a world where there's no pop culture.

In the movies I've done for Sony, they've never given me quadrant specific notes ever. They say "Keep making it. Just make the movie you want to do." Especially in a comedy because comedy is so tone specific.

I try not to read the Internet because it's mostly just a sea of hatred.

I never go to the monitor. I just look at the camera monitor and my favorite part of all of the directing, except for the writing and editing of it, is right when we're rolling and they do lines and I'll say "Try this, try this, try this."

There are not that many roles in comedies that are completely driven by a young actress.

You go through your career and you find people and cast who you love and you go through and keep them and you never want to let them go because you have a great repertory with them.
