I was, like, a brown belt, which is pretty good. I entered a tournament once, and I punched the guy in the throat and got disqualified. I realized - I don't know if you're familiar with "Karate Kid," but the bad guys in that are called Cobra Kai, and they're, like, the evil karate guys. And then when I went to the tournament, I realized that's what we were; we were like the Cobra Kai of the Jewish karate community.
I don't make the best movies in the world, but at times, I do feel like I'm adding something to the cinematic community.
Americans whisper the word Alzheimer's because their government whispers the word Alzheimer's. And although a whisper is better than the silence that the Alzheimer's community has been facing for decades, it's still not enough. It needs to be yelled and screamed to the point that it finally gets the attention and the funding that it deserves and needs.
I've seen a lot of movies get made where no one has control. No one likes it.
People recognise me and come up to me sometimes, but I'm not like George Clooney.
You look at CG sometimes and its terrible. You look at CG sometimes and its great.
I first did standup at a lesbian bar. I didn't know it was a lesbian bar at the time, but the lesbians loved me. I was huge among the lesbians and am to this day. I'm thrilled with the lesbian support.
Luckily, I think, I never really wanted to be famous, I just wanted to make movies.
I'm proud to say that I've never had a normal job. I started doing stand-up when I was in high school, purely as a measure to never get a proper job.
To me all men are boy-men. I don't know any man that's actually mature.
My high school years were exactly like 'Superbad.'
Marriage can be expensive, and if I lose millions then it'll be the best millions I've spent.
With me, I probably work a lot more than people assume I do, but people don't realize how much work goes into writing and producing and making a movie.
There is a certain security in having a great supporting cast.
