Quote

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.

Besides the fact that I make movies, there's nothing interesting about my life at all, unfortunately.

I love my parents. But I'm almost 28 and it's not fun to be asked, 'What are you doing today? What do you want for dinner? When are you going to be home?' It just makes you feel like a kid. It's this juxtaposition of feeling annoyed and really lucky to have people who love you so much.

In the comedies I've been lucky enough to be a part of a world like Judd Apatow's, where I believe comedy comes from real people.

I always say I want to eventually shift my career to directing and writing.

There are a lot of things going into making a movie. So many things can go wrong. So many people that need to show up and bring their A game. If one thing is out of place, the whole movie can fall apart.

The fact that the Kardashians could be more popular than a show like “Mad Men” is disgusting. It’s a super disgusting part of our culture, but I still find it funny to make a joke about it.

When I first met the world, basically, or introduced myself to people, I was in 'Superbad,' and I feel the same way I felt promoting 'Superbad' in an underdog style that I feel promoting 'Moneyball.'

Comedies are doing well because I think people want to laugh and not think about everything for a little bit.

When you do your comedy and your drama, your acting style doesn't change. If it's a comedy, the situations and the characters might be a little funnier, but you're just trying to be honest.

21 Jump Street is great. I just made that, and produced it and was a writer on it. It's starring myself and Channing Tatum, and maybe some surprise guests.

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.

Be open to other people's ideas. Don't get arrogant about your ideas. Shoot a lot of options so you're not stuck with just one version of something.

I think it's kind of strange when people talk about how hyped-up the movie is. It almost sets you up for a bigger fall.

'Allen Gregory' came about because we wanted an animated show and we were just tossing around some ideas about me playing a 7-year-old. We thought that would be cool, because we couldn't do that in real life.

New Orleans is like the bad-kid island in 'Pinocchio.'

I would never remake something that was like The Godfather. Things that are truly important to me, I could never remake or reboot, or whatever.

The comedy really comes from how badly you want these characters to succeed and with a comedy that's often hard.

When you create something you're free to explore it however you want to do it.

I'm a lifelong Simpsons fanatic and I wanted to create my own animated show, one day.
