dinosaurs kids love stage
Kids go through a stage where they love dinosaurs - boy or girl.
clear funny great guy johnson
Jake Johnson wanted to make clear that he was the great American actor, not just the funny guy on 'New Girl.'
I think intensity is one thing, and gore is another.
america informs means particular poke
My wife is French, and so I get to see America through her eyes, which informs a lot of little moments. It means I can poke fun at very particular things about us.

Marketing for a film is tricky because you release stuff without context.
articles call certain fad filmmakers given good massive movies original result
I read certain articles about how all of the new filmmakers are immediately being given massive tentpoles, and there's a lot of original movies that we have now lost as a result of this. I don't want to call it a fad because I think it's a good thing. I think the movies are better as a result.
I prefer to be scared in a way that a 12-year-old would want to be.

Intimacy between humans need not be relegated to independent film. Real characters can exist no matter what the scale of a movie is.

'Intelligent Life' is kind of a companion piece to 'Safety Not Guaranteed.' Internally, it's a sci-fi romantic thriller.

If I can build a coalition of people who are interested in what I have to say and what I'm thinking, I hope they'll come with me if I want to go tell a story that doesn't have dinosaurs in it - which I plan to do.
filmmakers films people relationship
I feel like, on a more macro scale, there's started to be a relationship between filmmakers and people who watch their films - you know, on Twitter and on the Internet.
films good shot slick technology
I feel a lot of films that are shot digitally, even low-budget independent films, they look super slick now. Because the technology is so good that they look too good.
