These movies are like my kids. I just love them to death. Some of them go to Harvard and some of them can barely graduate high school.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Well, the wonderful thing about making movies, oddly enough, is that they're sort of highly motivated graduate studies in one or another field.
I don't know whether everybody likes the films that I do. I know that I love them, and I believe the way that I raise my kids that they will love them, and that's what most important to me.
I loved movies, growing up. They brought me so much joy.
Making movies was a real weird kind of adult experience. In a way it was like MIT, in that it was a great education. The big lesson is, people are people. They're smart, funny, creative people, but they're people.
I have a particular dislike for children's films. I'm way past the novelty aspect.
My kids are old enough now that they can watch that, but I like to do the family movies.
I loved movies ever since I was a kid.
I'm not an especially highbrow person, but I have always loved small, quirky, edgy movies.
When I was in high school, there was 'Superbad' and 'The Girl Next Door' and 'Wedding Crashers' and all these great movies. You hope to be a part of something that's smart, funny and in that Todd Phillips-vein. You want to make something like 'Superbad.' That movie was so good and so funny.
For the most part, I've stayed as far away as possible from high school movies. I just don't find them to be that relatable to everybody? They become like this: 'Look at that period of time. Isn't that interesting?'
