You Set The Tone On The Set

I Think That 'hangover Ii' Is As Funny As 'the Hangover I,' Honest To God, But I Think That It's A Little Bit Darker, And The Stakes Are A Little Bit Higher.

My Movies Before Tend To Be Just Funny. But It Wasn't A Conscious Thing I Was Looking For At All.

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 Was Raised By My Mom. She Taught Me How To Be A Gentleman; Nobody In The Movies Taught Me. I Think People Are Raised By Their Parents. If You're Raised By Movies, It's A Whole Other Set Of Problems. I Don't Think It's As Simple As Me Saying Movies Are Meant To Entertain, But I Certainly Don't Feel Moral Responsibility In Putting This Out In The World And Being Like, "ok, This Is Going To Affect How Guys Make Decisions Because They See Some Of My Films Or Whatever." I Just Don't.

Comedy Is So Subjective. You Could Be In A Room With 400 People Laughing At A Joke And You Could Just Not Think It's Funny. You're Just Sitting There Like, 'am I In The Twilight Zone? Why Is Everyone Laughing?' It's Such A Personal Thing. People Have Such A Personal Visceral Response To Comedy.
