I think by now if people hire me, they know I'm going to improvise. I'm an improviser by trade.

'Guardians of the Galaxy' is tongue-in-cheek and has a sense of humor about itself. But it's nothing like 'Deadpool.' 'Deadpool' is this super-bizarre thing. The best thing about it is that it's R-rated.

From T. J. Miller

I don't get along much with myself.

From T. J. Miller

Mike Judge usually receives underwhelming acclaim for his movies when they come out; it takes a while for people to catch up.

From T. J. Miller

Sometimes, things need to be so understated on film that I don't even see them as funny, which isn't my favorite style, comedically. When I watch film comedy, I like people that are a little bit more alive on the screen and wound up. I like volatility and unpredictability and other long words like those.

From T. J. Miller

Russell Brand is lovely, even though he's a weirdo.

From T. J. Miller

From T. J. Miller

Hollywood is the only thing more ridiculous than Silicon Valley. There's nowhere else where it's stranger.

From T. J. Miller

From T. J. Miller
