I think 'manager' is a stupid word.

I'll be honest - I never saw myself making a ninja movie, never entertained the idea. I think ninja films can be quite cheesy unless you do them in feudal Japan.
- Others

In the film industry, we tend to pick up where others have left off, and I'd like to think the influences I picked up from Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, Sylvester Stallone and Jean-Claude Van Damme are visible in my work.

I think most of my tastes were British, as far as comedy went, when I was growing up.
- Animal

- Nov 07, 2020
I think it's all the same animal for me. There are actors who sing, and there are actors who direct, and I also improvise. That's one thing I do as part of my acting. I don't really separate the two.

'Baymax' is quite different. I think when Don Hall found the title and didn't know it, he researched and saw great potential in the relationship between a boy and a robot.
- Future

I never looked at my future as comedy. Even at Second City, I always thought of it as acting. I knew I was going to be an actor, financially, emotionally, egotistically. I still don't think I'm in comedy.
- Learning

I think the longer a sitcom is on the air, by necessity, the dumber the characters have to get: otherwise, they would be learning and growing, and they won't be funny, so they have to get more and more extremely whatever they are.
- Days

I look back on our productivity in the 'Mr. Show' days, and think, 'We probably could have worked harder.'
- Know

- Nov 07, 2020
I very rarely came across rude or disrespectful people. I don't know how I slipped by all of them, but I honestly can't think of one experience off the top of my head that was like that. I'm sure they're there, but I'd have to think really hard to recall them.

If I'm racist, don't think I would have directed shows like 'The Parkers' and 'The Wayans Brothers' or worked 41 episodes with Victoria Rowell on 'Diagnosis: Murder.'
- Creativity

- Nov 07, 2020
I don't think that a company should own a studio and the network, and program for their own network. It hurts the creativity - it is not a level playing field.

What I don't like is when people feel like they can box an artist into who they think an artist should be.

First of all, I don't think that America is truly prepared for a biological or a chemical attack. However, we are moving in the right direction.
