I'm not a huge comic book fan, but I'm a closet fan of certain Marvel heroes, two of those being Iron Man, and the other being Guardians of the Galaxy, which I'm looking forward to.

Comedy is a meritocracy. If you are funny, you are there. If you are not, you are out.

I don't think it's a mistake to put every great idea into the first movie, because I've always said there won't be a second movie if you go 'we'll hold back these ideas for another one.

When we bring the filmmaker, we bring somebody to help us elevate the material with those things, to help us do something different with all of those resources at their disposal.

Filmmakers are anxious about what other people are working on.

We have audiences that seem to be embracing whether they've heard of the characters or not.

I love female heroes too and would love to bring many more to the big screen in the future.

Let's use that to make as interesting and different and unique a story as possible and not just stay with the same thing.' And this movie is certainly the embodiment of that.

...a tall, gaunt man with small narrow eyes set deep in his skull like two old sisters trying to spy out of the windows of their house without being noticed themselves.

One day, of course, no one will remember what I remember.

If you don’t think about it, it’s right.

You look like a boy who has eaten the fruit of the tree of knowledge and doesn't like the taste.

Poetry is a dividend from what you know and what you are.

Automatic simply means that you can?t repair it yourself.

My major hobby is teasing people who take themselves and the quality of their knowledge too seriously and those who don't have the guts to sometimes say: I don't know.

Man's chief delusion is his conviction that there are causes other than his own state of consciousness.

Everybody says Steve McManaman played on the left for me in Euro 96 but he never played on the left. The one time he did play on the left was against Switzerland.

People always think I hate doing interviews. I don't. I wouldn't do them if I didn't like them.
