More quotes by Judd Apatow
It seems like magic is something kids start really young.
Judd Apatow
It's so funny, all the similarities that we have [with David Copperfield] of being obsessed young people and finding a way to be around the people doing what we want to do.
Judd Apatow
I love the Lonely Island. I wish there was more Lonely Island movies.
Judd Apatow
I'm making a movie about relationships, and I'm surrounded by guys scared of talking to girls.
Judd Apatow
I'm always begging people like James Brooks and Cameron Crowe to come to screenings, to see what they make of it, and they're always ridiculously helpful. They also keep me brave enough to commit to what I'm trying to do. They can be great cheerleaders for risk-taking.
Judd Apatow
I literally cannot remember one joke.
Judd Apatow
The only thing worse than a crappy TV show which Paddy Chayevsky couldn't have conceived in his worst nightmare is two megacorps fighting over who thought of the crappy show first.
Judd Apatow
If everyone is mature, there is no comedy.
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
Back in the old days, everyone was shocked if a band had a sponsor for their tour. Now, Bob Dylan can do a commercial for Victoria's Secret and people don't really blink the Beatles' songs are in all sorts of commercials these days and it doesn't seem to offend anybody. The times are changing.
Judd Apatow
You have to write a lot of scripts to get any scripts that are worth making.
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 was listening to Tommy Chong talking about how he feels like there is like a creative flow happening and how certain people just know how to hook into the pipe. He played music with Jimi Hendrix and felt that he was personally connected to some higher intelligence or creativity.
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
I remember the review from Michael Wilmington in Chicago, and Gene Siskel wrote really smart reviews where I thought, Oh, they totally get what we're attempting to do.
Judd Apatow
It would be so irresponsible not to speak up. I don't know what I would do in my home and in my life if I didn't rant a little bit and as thoughtfully as I can with some humor.
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
I always thought that Seth [Rogen] was a fun, caustic, bombastic, sweet, underdog-type of person that I would root for the way you used to root for Bill Murray or John Candy in Stripes. Seth had something that very few people you encounter have: he had a writer's mind and he had his own comic point of view.
Judd Apatow
I've come to believe that the simpler the title, the better. Whenever I try to get cute with it, it seems to be a problem but if it's just The 40-Year-Old Virgin, people seem to know what they're in for.
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.
