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
At the end of the day the question comes, what are you doing for the world? You have to try to do something thats going to add something positive. – 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
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
Some of the writers I admire who seem very, very funny and very emotional to me can develop a closeness with the reader without giving too much of themselves away. Lorrie Moore comes to mind, as does David Sedaris. When they write, the reader thinks that theyre being trusted as a friend. – Sloane Crosley
