Period costume films are fun to discover, but theyre not relatable. Its more, Wow, thats cool – did it really look like that back then? Whereas with a comedy, youre like, Yeah, thats me, thats my friends. No matter what, I want people to relate. – Paul Feig
Im kind of a failure. I mean, Ill be honest. Im successful in that Im getting to work on great stuff, but I think Im a failure in all the personal stuff that is most important to me. – Paul Feig
I love funny people, and when Im with funny people, or people who are amusing in their weirdness, I love it. Because that to me is funny, as opposed to someone who stops and says, Hey let me tell you a joke. – Paul Feig
What I dont like is when I see stuff that I know has had a lot of improv done or is playing around where theres no purpose to the scene other than to just be funny. What you dont want is funny scene, funny scene, funny scene, and now heres the epiphany scene and then the movies over. – Paul Feig
