clockwork either movies saw scares totally
I saw 'A Clockwork Orange' when I was 11. When you watch 'Clockwork Orange' at 11, it either totally scares you from watching movies, or you want to become a filmmaker. I was the latter.
collect dvds movies
I collect movies. So I have all those in binders. I don't have the DVDs out. I put them in binders.
animated hard line movies
The whole thing with animated movies is that it's very hard to get out of your head because it's very moving through each line systematically.
great mexico movies shot
Las Vegas, New Mexico has had a lot of great movies shot there.
anderson filmmaker moved paul thomas
I moved out to L.A. to be a filmmaker or director. I didn't even think about doing comedy or even acting. I wanted to be like Paul Thomas Anderson or Wes Anderson, but I wasn't going to a lot of comedy.
forget move original
When you move to L.A. or New York, it's easy to get a little lost and forget your original goal.
family life mostly moved since
My life is different since I moved back to L.A. from New York, mostly because I have a family and I don't go out.
I was at Second City L.A., going through the conservatory, and I graduated in 2004 and I got 'SNL' in 2005.
good liked trains
I really liked John Candy in 'Planes, Trains & Automobiles.' He was so good in that movie.
actual definitely great group heard saying
In the U.S., it's like, you start with a great script, and then on set - not everybody, but definitely in the Apatow group - you go off, and you're improvising on camera. So while you're on camera, you're saying things that no one else has ever heard before during the actual take.
far
As far as post-'SNL' career, whatever kind of comes my way that looks interesting, I'll do it, you know?
compare learn people quickly trouble
You learn quickly at 'SNL' you get in trouble if you compare yourself to other people, where they're at, or what other people had done before you.
people telling
You know what, I remember being on my T-ball team and telling people about 'Platoon.'
comedy love people terms
I'm never going to say, 'Well, I'm never going to do comedy again.' I love comedies, and it's what people know me for, so I love doing it... I don't really think about it in terms of 'Well, I should do this because it's comedy or drama.'
