Growing up, a film was an action film or it was a comedy or it was romantic, but you don't really see such stark lines between genres nowadays.
I feel like I've done a bunch of period stuff and then a bunch of romantic comedies.
I don't know about the romantic comedy route, although never say never.
I think romantic comedy, when done right, is my favorite genre. It's just a genre that's very human.
I'm sorry, but I can't make a movie with the blonde from 'ER' who is starring in every single bad romantic comedy.
I regard romantic comedies as a subgenre of sci-fi, in which the world operates according to different rules than my regular human world.
I personally don't like to go see romantic comedies. But people do want to see them, and they seem to want to see me in them.
Science fiction and comedy are generally a pretty bumpy mix.
Breaking records is not something you expect to be doing. That's like a sports thing, it's not usually a comedy and writing thing.
I love making comedy. I never stopped loving it. I will continue to love it and I can't believe that I get to do it.
I totally love to act. I don't care if it's a musical, a comedy. I just like to work and interact with other people.
My parents are desperate, they keep saying: 'Please stop doing these angsty roles; make it easier for us.' So, yeah, I'd love to do some comedy.
The 'Muppets' were a very big part of my childhood, and 'Flight of the Conchords' definitely has elements of the 'Muppets' in it, specifically the way we mixed music and comedy.
The Monkees was a straight sitcom, we used the same plots that were on the other situation comedies at the time. So the music wasn't threatening, we weren't threatening.
When I was doing comedy in New York, before I was in movies, I was never known as the deadpan actress. I was just a comedienne.
The comedy community is very friendly right now. I think that's why you see all the synergy and people doing each other's movies.
When I was younger, I always did movies that teenagers would watch, not adults. I did 'Crazy/Beautiful' or comedies like 'Bring It On.'
I always have considered Michael Keaton to be a phenomenal actor because he navigates drama and comedy.
I started getting really interested in comedy when I was in middle school.
With every movie, I try to do something different, whether it's action, comedy or drama.
On American TV, there just aren't a lot of female leads in comedy, especially at the peak of all the Judd Apatow stuff.
