The BBC say we need more working-class comedies, which is rubbish. We need funny comedies; it doesn't matter where they come from.
I would say 80% of the scripts I get are dramas and not comedies or romantic comedies, which is funny because that's what I do every week.
I think people like comedies and I think concept driven comedies seem to be working when it's a clear concept and you deliver funny stuff.
I'm proud of everything I've done. If it's comedy, it's 'cause I think it's funny. If it's a drama, it's impactful. I'm leaning towards dramas now because I wrapped a couple comedies in a row. I don't like watching myself, but it's easier on me when I don't have to carry a lot of the comedy. But I enjoy making comedies but dramas come more naturally.
I actually love Scorsese comedies. He's an underrated comedy director. I think his comedies are some of the best comedies ever made.
I love gritty dramas, 'Queen Sugar,' 'True Detective' - stuff like that, but I also love quippy comedies - those multi-cam comedies with incredibly talented and funny casts with perfect comedic timing.
We need comedies in the world! We need to laugh, it's all so hard.
My favorite movies are all romantic comedies. I love the romantic comedies. I'd still have to say Pretty Woman. I still think that it's one of the best ever.
Unfortunately, I was making comedies in my 20s, but other people didn't realize they were comedies.
There's not many good comedies to watch - you know, comedies that make you glad you watched them.
In a business that has exploited and ignored our people I have only found dead-ends. We need romantic comedies, gross-out and mockery comedies, horror and thrillers, teen movies and love-stories. All these and more will be a positive step towards the future of Native Americans in the world and film industry; an industry that that offers us not only the chance to play the parts of heroes, love interests and warriors, but also of villains, dorks and dangerous, brokenhearted products of circumstance.
I've been in very few flat-out comedies. But I feel like I've always made comedies.
A lot of Christmas episodes of comedies are comedies trying to be dramas.
With comedies, I like to be a producer, because comedies can get corny and go off track real fast.
I will never say never, but I will say never to doing the more typical romantic comedies. You know, unless I'm getting audited and I'm on the street and I desperately need some dough and that's the only thing that I'm getting.
I don't see myself doing any comedies. I like comedies as much as anyone else; I just don't really have a desire to do them.
I think the kick to doing comedy is just to get in a film with really funny people and let them do their jobs. I find that in most comedies, I'm not the funny one, which works out great.
