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
Anyone in the comedy world knows that Horatio Sanz and Chris Parnell are two of the funniest guys around.
Adam McKay
Most of what's tricky about comedy is the perception of it and the audience's expectation.
Adam McKay
Creative freedom is a huge carrot.
Adam McKay
“Firewall” seems both scary and protective at the same time. And how often does that happen within one word besides “military” and “government?”
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
