Comedy is all about the pause.
I have a lot of respect for actors who do comedy. They do it naturally.
My greatest regret as a writer is that I've never been able to include as many jokes as I'd like.
I'm fascinated by comedy.
Anytime there's originality and comedy combined, it's very potent for people who love comedy.
I'd love to do a really broad comedy at some point.
I love a lot of comedy actors and actresses like Kristen Wiig and Tina Fey and all those women who are really brilliant and funny.
Comedy is very effortless.
Comedy can be fun no matter what you're playing. It always has the potential to be a blast.
We make movies that crack us up and hope that they crack up other people, too.
My dad loved comedians, especially George Jessel, and he loved Henny Youngman and Buddy Hackett.
I watched 'Ghostbusters' from the age of four. It's my favorite movie, still. Bill Murray's, like, the weirdest straight man that you've ever seen. He's convinced that he's the normal one, even though he's definitely not.
I love doing comedy, and I don't get a chance to much. I get to play lots of serious people, and killers, and people with a lot of... sheriffs. Good people and bad people, but lots of drama, and to get a chance to be genuinely silly is a great treat for me.
I think drama and comedy are pretty much all the same, and the issue is whether or not you have a sense of humor.
No, I don't know why Bobby and Peter Farrelly bothered with a 'Three Stooges' movie, either. But if they're anything like some men I know, their love for Moe, Larry, and Curly (and an assortment of fourth bananas) is deep, abiding, and unembarrassable. In other words: How could the Farrellys not?
My heroes were Gene Wilder, Steve Martin, and Martin Short.
It is fun to see a comedy in which every single joke hasn't been packed into the trailer.
Mean comedy is not really something that I personally gravitate towards or something that I do.
You know, I think British comedy is very smart comedy. You don't get too much dumb comedy over here. Or at least I haven't seen it. If I'm wrong about that, I apologize to all the dumb comedy makers over here.
Let me make something clear: I can't do anything in particular to make others laugh. I do what is necessary for a character. The body language of the character may make others laugh.
I have wit in my work and a sense of humor, but I do not use irony in any way.
I think Flip Wilson is a brillant comedian.
Comedy is so hard; it's so much harder than drama. The pacing of it, the energy of it.
I started being a comedy fan when I was, I'm going to guess, like 5 or 6 years old.
Comedy is a very rough beat. It's no holds barred, as it should be.
