I Find Nice People Kind Of Boring.

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.

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 Think When You Pay Attention To The Shots, You're Aware Of The Fact That There's A Director. Really, It's The Director's Job To Disappear And Allow The Movie To Just Feel.

The First Thing I Say When People Ask What's The Difference [between Doing Tv And Film], Is That Film Has An Ending And Tv Doesn't. When I Write A Film, All I Think About Is Where The Thing Ends And How To Get The Audience There. And In Television, It Can't End. You Need The Audience To Return The Next Week. It Kind Of Shifts The Drive Of The Story. But I Find That More As A Writer Than As A Director.

Directing 'the Office' Is Kind Of Like Someone Going, 'would You Like To Drive My Lamborghini?' And I'm Like 'yes, I Would Like To Drive Your Lamborghini. That Sounds Like Fun.'
