| Quotes: |
Why comedies can't have as big budgets as action films is a long story, but evidently they can't.
<br />
<hr>
I think we'll all keep pushing each other, which is a great thing.
<br />
<hr>
When I'm shooting, really the audience I'm thinking the hardest about is that first test screening audience who I want to like the film and that first opening weekend audience.
<br />
<hr>
My favorite laser disk ever was the laser disk for The Graduate, which had a commentary track that wasn't even the filmmakers, it was a professor, some film criticism guy who just happen to be this amazing commentator who went off into the whole theory of comedy.
<br />
<hr>
On the other track I got to talk with Jon Poll, my editor, and we go into more detail about the decisions we made in both the production and the post-production. So I hope the combination becomes something worth collecting. |
