The only thing that I demand of the audience is that they listen to what I'm saying. Other than that, they owe me nothing. They don't owe me a thing.

I feel like what I owe my audience is what I'm most passionate about.

I have the audience I deserve. Or at least I have the audience that represents the kind of people that I like.

I'm proudest of the fact that I fell in step with an audience taste level that I knew how to judge and maybe deliver for, and consistently.

I feel like I share a great relationship with my audience where they trust my judgment and choice of films and sense of comedy.

You can't second-guess your audience. You can only do what you think is right. If you do that, your audience will appreciate you.

I think if you find that you're making a judgment on the character, than your audience will make a judgment on the character.

I don't substitute anybody else's judgment for my own.

You have to understand that you are not making the film for yourself; you're making it for the audience. If I am asking my audiences to buy tickets, I owe them the worth of their money, and I owe them entertainment.
