Adam McKay
The one thing for sure is, I don't ever want to waste a movie. I don't ever want to waste effort.
Adam McKay
I gotta say - if I clicked on a movie interview, and the first part was all about Walt Whitman, I'd love that article.
Adam McKay
In general foreign invested companies who come to America to start a company, to open a manufacturing business or whatnot, they actually provide much higher wages than American companies.
Adam McKay
If all else fails, you can always be a pro.
Adam McKay
I've gotten like five laughs in movies, just off guy hugs.
Adam McKay
There are many aspects to directing that have a romantic place in people's minds.
Adam McKay
White-collar crime has been marketed - billions of dollars have been put in to have us be bored by it.
Adam McKay
You could feel America starting to ease up a little bit on racism, against blacks in certain pockets, and then suddenly The Cosby Show bubbled up and it was the right time for it.
Adam McKay
Any time Chris Nolan wants to call me for advice, he can.
