I could do it, ... I've actually figured out a way, even though the characters have gotten older, to do it. I just have to have the ambition to write it.
Tell you what. Next time I do a movie, you can drive me to the set.
Ben Affleck, he looked like a little girl! When I saw Ben Affleck and Dave Spade acting like little girls, I said I got this one. I'm all good. I don't have to worry about nothing. ... That part that was in the wall, that was the bomb.
If there's another level of heaven, that's where I'm at,

If you just love movies enough, you can make a good one.
You name any horrific thing, and I can make a joke out of it.
