Famous Quotes & Sayings

Max Landis

Superman, when he's fighting you, isn't like Batman. He also isn't like Spider-man, who will bully you and make fun of his villains. Why do you think Spider-man's villains all hate him so much? Maybe because as he breaks their bones he's mocking them! Batman's villains are all insane! Superman, when he goes after someone, is essentially not trying to beat them. He's trying to save them from themselves.

When I was about 16, I did a Neil LaBute play called A Gaggle of Saints from a collection of plays called Bash - very violent story about a young Mormon who goes to Central Park with his friend and beats up a gay guy.

I feel like I owe it to the readers to try to pull back the veil and give them the honest version of what's going on. But it's not more fun.

It's us," Stephen said. "Oh, thank God," said a voice. Callum emerged from behind the Dumpster.
