More quotes by Judd Apatow
Every time I perform in front of people, no matter how well it goes, the next day, I feel humiliated.
Judd Apatow
I used to tour a little bit with Jim Carrey and help him out on his first Showtime special.
Judd Apatow
The first comedians I became fascinated with were the Marx brothers. I couldn't get enough of them. Later in life, I thought, Well, maybe it's because they were so rebellious and they were just flipping the bird to society and all the rules we're supposed to follow. They were saying that none of it is fair.
Judd Apatow
I'm trying to think if there was ever the Lenny Bruce-y, observational, George Carlin kind of magician: You know what I hate is ... I don't think that ever existed.
Judd Apatow
Some stories feel like they need more time or less time to tell. To not obsessively have to trim or add that final two or three minutes is very helpful, because you can just organically follow how the story feels.
Judd Apatow
When Jim Carrey signed on to star in [The Cable Guy], and then they asked me to produce it, I made a very brief plea to direct - which was rejected really as quickly as anything can be.
Judd Apatow
People talk about universal intelligence ... I'm reticent to believe almost anything, just because my parents weren't religious at all, but that's when I feel it. People talk about being in the flow.
Judd Apatow
I always felt as a kid that I was underappreciated, invisible or weird, but I've always secretly thought people would one day appreciate what is different about me. I'm always putting that message out there.
Judd Apatow
I really think more about being honest and truthful about feelings and how people behave for the movies that I direct, but I also love movies like Zohan and Anchorman, just balls to the wall, how much can you make people laugh in one 90 minute period.
Judd Apatow
Some people are probably saner. They're good performers, and they go about their day. I just get obsessive about it.
Judd Apatow
I used to scream at everybody at the beginning of my career. I'd get really emotional. I'd project all my issues about my parents and safety onto the executives, so every conversation where they gave a note was life or death and you don't love me.
Judd Apatow
Nobody's going to like my next movie because they liked Trainwreck [2015]. It has to work on its own, and that keeps it really scary.
Judd Apatow
The thing that ruined your life makes you good at your work. And then you get rewarded at work, so you don't bother to fix it in your life.
Judd Apatow
A lot of the turning points happen in high school and in college, and it defines a lot of how you see the world and how you decide to defend yourself from the world. Some people - their defense mechanism is, I'm really smart or I'm sexy or I'm the leader. And other people - they hide or they make jokes.
Judd Apatow
Sometimes a story idea will come to me, and suddenly I've figured out the whole thing, and I feel like I'm collaborating with something other than myself.
Judd Apatow
I'm always surprised when you do something very different that people don't get behind you more, because you're always told, Take chances! Stretch! And when you do it, sometimes people get really supportive and excited, but sometimes people go at you because you've tossed out the formula.
Judd Apatow
If you work on network TV, they want to pick your casts, dictate your story and how your show works. It just becomes creativity by committee, which is never good.
Judd Apatow
People are disappearing from movies, and normal human behaviour is disappearing from movies... You are not always fighting a creature in life. That's part of life, it's a pretty big part of life, but it's not all of life.
Judd Apatow
I've come to realize that people connect more when they know you're telling them the truth or some aspect of your story, some mutated version of how you are experiencing this life.
Judd Apatow
The only way you survive on all these services is if you're groundbreaking. There's pressure to be groundbreaking, which is the greatest thing that's ever happened. It's a bizarre aspect of what's happened with all of these subscription services is everyone is trying to outdo each other by doing great things.
