It feels like when I write, it's intuitive. This is true of Frances, and it's true of this [The Funniest Movie Of The Summer].
I don't want to go to just watch big huge summer movies that everybody predicts is going to be the big huge summer movie and that are all the sort of blow-them-up movies or whatever you want to call them. I think there are a lot of other people out there, too, that want an alternative.
I rarely see one of the 'summer blockbuster' movies. I'd like to see a stronger focus on smaller, smarter movies.
You usually find me writing what I like to think of as intelligent summer action and genre films.
There's all these summer blockbusters out there, but nobody's talking about them... they're talking about 'Sharknado.' It's amazing!
Summer movie idea: take all the sequels that are out right now, and make movies about their backstories.
I mean, movies are all geared to be basically under 25, and they're all tentpoles, explosions, excitement and all that - they take advantage of the big screen, which is great.
You know, every time a summer movie comes out, people think they're gonna get rich off of the merchandise.
With 2 movies opening this summer, I have no relaxing time at all. Whatever I have is spent in a drunken stupor.
It's a fallacy, long rebuffed by science, that humans use only about 10% of their brainpower. But it is true about most summer movies. Pouring their wizardry into special effects and well-choreographed fights, warm-weather action films rarely challenge the viewer with grand notions or beautifully baffling imagery.
