What I Do Feel Is That 'up

When I Look At 'napoleon Dynamite”s Style I'm Reminded Of How I Spoke When I Was An Eight-year-old Boy. It Was Just Like Capturing The Essence Of, 'duh!' It Was Just Like The Stuff That I Would Say When I Was Like Eight, Nine, Ten Years Old.

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.

I Remember When I Was Like 19 Years Old And I Started A Desk Calendar Company To Pay For My First Short Film, Just So I Could Say One Day That My Daddy Didn't Pay For My First Short Film. And I Really Established Myself In The Film Festival World.

I Hate Movies That Tell People What To Think. I'm Proud That Democrats Thought 'thank You For Smoking' Was Their Film And Republicans Thought It Was Theirs. I'm Proud That Pro-choice People Thought 'juno' Was Their Film And Pro-life People Thought It Was Theirs.

Things Like Facebook Have Made You Feel As Though You're Connected To Everybody. You've Got A Thousand Friends On Facebook, But You Don't Actually Talk To Anybody. You're Not Close To Anybody.
