I actually thought that the idea of doing a World War II movie in the guise of a spaghetti western would just be an interesting way to tackle it. Just even the way that the spaghetti westerns tackled the history of the Old West, I thought it could be a neat thing to do that with World War II, but just as opposed to using cowboy iconography, using World War II iconography as kind of the jumping-off point.
Ben Affleck, he looked like a little girl! When I saw Ben Affleck and Dave Spade acting like little girls, I said I got this one. I'm all good. I don't have to worry about nothing. ... That part that was in the wall, that was the bomb.

But if you want to talk to me about the movie we just showed and what you thought about it, I'll talk to you all (expletive) night.

If there is only one film you see this year, let this be it.
If there's another level of heaven, that's where I'm at,
I could do it, ... I've actually figured out a way, even though the characters have gotten older, to do it. I just have to have the ambition to write it.
