I Am An Obsessive Flyer, Myself.

Being The Son Of A Filmmaker, You Are Aware Of A Career As A Director. You Don't Think Of It As Just Movies, But As A Life.

I Laugh A Lot In Horror Films. If I'm Scared In A Horror Film, I Try To Think About What's Scaring Me... Particularly, If It's A Bad Movie, But Something They're Doing Still Works. It's The Same Way I Look At Comedy. I've Always Had An Intellectual View Of Comedy, And What Makes People Laugh, And How Does It Work.

And Over The Course Of The Last Six Years, As I've Directed More Features And Commercials, I've Become Better At Articulating Exactly How I Want The Audience To Feel.

I'm Really Attracted To Authors Who Take On Really Tricky Material With A Very Open Mind And Take A Subject Matter That You Wouldn't Think Would Be A Comedy.

Directing Is A Reactionary Job More Than A Creation Job. The Job Is To React Whether It's Moment One, The First Time You Read The Script Or See An Article Or Read A Book Or Notice Something Happen On The Street And Have An Idea For A Movie, And It Just Continues From There On In. You're Just Reacting To Dialogue, A Performance, An Audition, A Headache, A Piece Of Furniture, A Piece Of Clothing.
