You Know, I'm A Big Comedy Fan.

It Was Always The Most Fun Thing In The World To Think Of A Joke Area And Talk About It With Someone Like Jim Carrey, And Then He Would Get On Stage Fearlessly And Tear The House Down. That's Something I Always Enjoyed. It Also Allowed Me To Not Be Terrified.

Any Music Star Would Be Singing About His Lost Love. A Movie Would Be About A Relatable Incident; It Wasn't An Untouchable Magic Dragon Box. It Was Something That People Could Relate To, And When I Vanished A Girl, It Would Be A Story About A Girl That Left Me, Or A Cutting Into Pieces Would Be A Date With A Magician. I Wouldn't Just Vanish A Girl In A Shower, I Would Do The Shower Scene From Psycho [1960] With A [alfred] Hitchcock Cameo.

I Was Bad At Sports And Picked Last Every Day. I Couldn't Quite Figure Out What My Role Was In The Social Order, So I Decided I Was Interested In Comedy. And What Was Then Interesting Was, Nobody Else Was Interested In It At All. I Didn't Find One Friend Who Was Interested In Comedy Until I Moved To California And Met Other Comedians. And Suddenly I Knew Hundreds Of People Who Knew As Much About Sctv As I Did. But It Took Me 20 Years To Find Those People.

You Can Do Weird Things On Tv - There Are Happy Stories, Sad Stories, Dark Stories. But With A Movie, It Always Has To End Satisfying. Unless You're The Coen Brothers, And It Ends With Somebody Getting Shot In The Head.

Some People Make Movies And Think, "well, I'll Just Keep Asking For More Money If This Isn't Enough." And Then There Are Other People, Like Clint Eastwood, Who Always Come In Under Budget.
