More quotes by Jonah Hill
Comedies are doing well because I think people want to laugh and not think about everything for a little bit.
Jonah Hill
I assume everything I do in life is gonna be a failure, and then if it turns up roses, then I'm psyched.
Jonah Hill
I like when you can have a conversation with people and it's not just stock questions.
Jonah Hill
I really care about this stuff, I care about movies, and you just have to be strong and don't be stupid freedom of choice is a big responsibility, and I'm lucky enough not to have to just take any movie to pay the rent, so there's no need to be greedy.
Jonah Hill
I mostly like documentaries, so I always think things that happened in real life are so astounding that why would you make a movie about something fake.
Jonah Hill
My heroes are Bill Murray and Dustin Hoffman. Those are the two actors that both do comedies and dramas, seamlessly. Also John C. Reilly and Philip Seymour Hoffman. They're all just great actors, neither comedic nor dramatic. They're just great actors.
Jonah Hill
It's just hard when you're someone who's like hurting a lot of people or deceiving people who trust you, not to bring some of that home with you or inside of you.
Jonah Hill
It's always better to shock people and change people's expectations than to give them exactly what they think you can do.
Jonah Hill
Luckily with animation, they give you a lot more leeway than a live-action show.
Jonah Hill
When someone who is known as a comedic actor goes to drama, it often doesn't work out, because they really just chose wrong, I think - or maybe they're just not good actors, I don't know.
Jonah Hill
I always say I want to eventually shift my career to directing and writing.
Jonah Hill
I don't like to say mean things about people's hard work.
Jonah Hill
The comedy really comes from how badly you want these characters to succeed and with a comedy that's often hard.
Jonah Hill
I've learned through experience of playing different characters, some of whom were jerks, that when you play a character who is pretentious or obnoxious, in any way, it's important to knock them down a peg.
Jonah Hill
I mean, I find things that happened in real life to be the funniest - things that you observe instead of crazy abstract things, you know.
Jonah Hill
I am a filmmaker fanatic. I have never been star-struck by an actor once in my entire life.
Jonah Hill
I have other tastes besides comedy. I love comedy. I adore it, but I love dramatic movies just as much.
Jonah Hill
I've never been into just really silly stuff.
Jonah Hill
The great thing about 'Allen Gregory' is that we try to make it really questionable that the things he says have happened, have really happened. We like that ambiguity.
Jonah Hill
I like playing characters that, you know, a couple could go see the movie and one person could love him and one person could hate him.
