Evan Goldberg Quotations

I went to a Christian all-boys' college one time to pick up my buddies so we could go play baseball, and I just remember walking through the halls, and there's all these crucified Jesuses. It's scary.

Everyone knows that in Hollywood, when you're hot, you've got to run with it. Because eventually they kick you out.

I don't fully understand my wife's emotions - and I'm supposed to write an excellent female character and unravel the secret of women?

I just want to keep going for broke, making bigger and bigger things like 'Lord of the Rings' until they kick me out of Hollywood. I just want to do the biggest thing I can.

The hardcore fanbase of nerds that live on the Internet are not nearly as powerful as I thought they were. They really, really aren't. They also flip-flop like mad.

'Lincoln' was OK; I thought it was a rock-solid eight out of 10, but it shouldn't win all the awards.

I can't wait for them to convert old movies to 3D. I am 100% confident I want them to convert 'Terminator 2' to 3D more than I want anything in the world.

In America it's all, 'I'm gonna make something of myself, leave my tiny town and go to L.A!' Canadians are like, 'I'm gonna make something of myself, go to L.A., and then come right back again to hang out with my buddies!'

As a director, you can't stop a guy if he thinks something's hysterical, because if you do, then he'll get depressed because he thinks he didn't come up with a good joke. So if a guy's going on some run and it's killing him, and he thinks it's hilarious, you gotta do enough so that he thinks you can use it in the movie.

I don't read good reviews. I like to know what percentages are going on. When Sony sends out something saying that people are liking the movie, I like to know that, but I don't actually sit and read the good stuff.

Growing up in Vancouver, it's not like growing up, you know, in Middle America or the middle of Canada or something. It's a very movie town.

I actually barely ever go on the Internet.

I was the - my trendsetting moment was my bar mitzvah had the first, like, temporary tattoo guy.

In the pie chart of my brain growing up, there's a huge slice for 'Ghostbusters.'

The theater remains relevant because of 3D. It makes it an event. You go there, 400 people put on their glasses, and it's just fun.

The thrill of doing visual effects doesn't exist.

I expect to get paid if I do something.

I get a sick joy out of bad reviews. I don't read good reviews.

I got Twitter like two months ago, checked it out a bit more, and I concluded the only thing Twitter I'm interested in following is Nick Stoller.

There's Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 1 and 2, and Ratatouille. It's super surreal. We've been working on this for eight years nonstop. Every week we've had a Sausage Party meeting, and now it won't be on our to-do list anymore. It's like the end of summer camp.

Toy Story 1, 2, and 3, to us, are some of the greatest films ever made, and each is better than the one before it. But if you go to Toy Story 6, they all end up decomposing in a trash heap somewhere.

I'm a blue Powerade man myself.

There's a big song at the beginning [of Sausage Party], and that was really fun to do. It felt like we were living out a dream of being the South Park guys for a minute.

After the song [for sausage Party] was finally done, we didn't have enough time, but we thought it would be fun. It also would've thrown it off a bit, because we really are doing more of an homage to Pixar, and if we filled it with songs, it would've felt more like Disney. And we had an experience, while we were making it, that going too Disney made it too weird.

I cant wait for them to convert old movies to 3D. I am 100% confident I want them to convert Terminator 2 to 3D more than I want anything in the world.

Everyone from Canada and from here contributed [to the Sausage Party] - it truly is, like, every market.

I dont fully understand my wifes emotions - and Im supposed to write an excellent female character and unravel the secret of women?

Im not an Internet person that reads behind-the-scenes stuff. I see a trailer, and if it looks good, then I go. Thats that.
