We're all vulnerable, and it's all hackable. If someone wants you and has targeted you, you can be taken down, and that fact is really scary.

I have a healthy amount of humility.

I'm a bit of a hacker fanatic and know a fair bit about that industry and cyber crime and cyber warfare.

I think politicians know how to misrepresent data in order to support a political agenda. Politicians and the people that work for them - I should say - are expert at that.

The best movies are rooted in reality.

I like to approach comedy from character, to have the stakes for the individuals in the story be very high.

I think Melissa McCarthy is a force of nature. She's just incredible. And it's purely her talent that has rocketed her in such little time from a marvelous supporting role in Bridesmaids to being the lead in several films that are coming out this year. She's extraordinary.

When you're making a film all by yourself, that requires you to have quite a bit of a point of view in order for anything to get done.

A favorite film of mine is 'Office Space' and I love 'The Hangover.' That is a really good comedy from character in that film, and that is true of 'Office Space' too.

I discovered shooting and filmmaking around the time all of the software became affordable to anyone with a PC.

There's a dangerous bottom-lining, and super-summarizing that happens in a lot of our press and our media, and sort of our politicians' talking points, that's dangerously simple. I don't know a better way to say it. And there's usually a lot more complicated facts going on than what is quoted and quotable.

There's no longer a monolithic evil empire somewhere, spreading a different philosophy of life. That doesn't exist.

I love the unexpected and I think that's why documentary is an attractive genre to me because you don't know where it's going to go, so I tend to involve that as much as possible in the production process.

I think that having comedy where people talk the way they really talk, when you talk with your friends and whatever, it's really, it's important. Or else you're making stuff that's a little bit watered down and irrelevant.

I'm really interested in stories about identity - who I am now versus who I used to be.

I feel like my own background in improv and doing documentaries makes me really comfortable with a situation where you're letting things unfold and you don't have to be a jerk, stomping his feet, trying to get his way on everything.
