More quotes by Adam McKay
Every time a congressman or pundit says its 'class warfare' to increase taxes on the wealthy, it's a massive lie.
Adam McKay
I think American culture had just become so disengaged from the process of government, and we'd been so fuzzed out by our pop culture around us, that I don't think people really saw this guy for what he was.
Adam McKay
All we have is our vote. But it's powerful.
Adam McKay
Old man with an old phone. That's never not funny.
Adam McKay
I've gotten like five laughs in movies, just off guy hugs.
Adam McKay
Anyone in the comedy world knows that Horatio Sanz and Chris Parnell are two of the funniest guys around.
Adam McKay
The easiest time to be funny is during a fairly serious situation. That way you can break the ice.
Adam McKay
There's nothing the people love more than a Federal Reserve joke.
Adam McKay
I could see how people get addicted to animation, and I understand why it's so great for comedy. You can do whatever you want and it just happens.
Adam McKay
The idea of 24-hour news, if you really step back, is pretty insane. Just even saying '24-hour news' almost has satire laced in it.
Adam McKay
It so happens that America, according to all the polls that are out there, is pretty progressive. So you're not going to see messages that support Ayn Randian individualism at the cost of the whole, because most people don't agree with that.
Adam McKay
'Blazing Saddles' is one of the funniest movies ever made.
Adam McKay
Hollywood has to appeal to the broadest audience, and when it comes to most social and economic issues, America is progressive. Because of that, the messages that are in Hollywood movies tend to be, for instance, pro-environment.
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
There are so many shoot-'em-up, action, jingoistic TV shows and movies that are made every year. I think the final line is that Hollywood is populist.
Adam McKay
The only way that Hollywood ever skews toward liberal is because part of what we make out of Hollywood involves writers, actors, directors, musicians, set designers, and photographers. In general, people like that are going to be more progressive, more open minded, a little more altruistic.
Adam McKay
Normally when it hits two and a half, three hours, the audience gets exhausted and start yawning.
Adam McKay
White-collar crime has been marketed - billions of dollars have been put in to have us be bored by it.
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 don't think there's ever been a moment in history where that, as an artistic message, has played very well, because people in their hearts know that's terrible and a lie.
Adam McKay
