Paul Feig Want Quotations

What I don't like is when I see stuff that I know has had a lot of improv done or is playing around where there's no purpose to the scene other than to just be funny. What you don't want is funny scene, funny scene, funny scene, and now here's the epiphany scene and then the movie's over.

You want a happy ending, but not such a ridiculous happy ending that it doesn't mean anything to anybody.

What you want is the thing that critics love and audiences love, but that's the hardest thing to do.

I'm not a painter who's saying, "I want people to see my work when I die; it will be this and that." That's not satisfying to me.

I don't want to do anything to revisit Freaks and Geeks that isn't awesome.

One of the many things I want to do is dig us out of that hole so that guys, in particular, can go: "Oh, yeah. Those people are really funny. I've seen that person. It's a woman. They are funny."
