Famous quotes by Keenen Ivory Wayans:

"As a parent, I think it's important for kids to have a source of entertainment that deals with life in positive and comedic ways."

"Pryor started it all. He made the blueprint for the progressive thinking of black comedians, unlocking that irreverent style."

"We see Oakland as a sleeping giant. It's a place to get in early before everybody else recognizes its potential."

"We see it as a sort of mini version of Universal Studios -- a production facility that also is an entertainment destination."

"Hopefully we will have it together by next season, even if we have to put Marlon behind the wheel,"

"Slot machines are like crack for old people."

"I like to have fun and be funny, but I'm much more of a thinker."

"I'm not on all the time. I like to have fun and be funny, but I'm much more of a thinker."

"It's rare that you cut out something that is really good. You screen all of it, and when the audience doesn't respond, you cut out whatever is holding the story down."

"You do what it takes. It was on me to deliver."

"There are two phases to a movie. First you shoot the movie, and then you make the movie. Generally, post-production is longer than filming."

"I go through a whole process with the actors first, building and creating characters, then I encourage them to sort of live in that character when they're in the screen."

"I think a lot comes from having the experience of doing stand-up comedy. It allows you to figure out the psychology of an audience; what things are funny and not."

"It's the teenage and university crowd, so we give them lots of sex jokes and gross humour."

"We've seen so many films now, that you have to be on par with the best films that have preceded you. You just can't make any movie and it will be good."

"We do nods to Charlie's Angels and Mission Impossible because they are popular with our fan base."

"I prefer the smaller budget versus the bigger budget because the mentality that goes along with big budget filmmaking doesn't really suit me; the mind-set that money is the answer."

"In rare instances you have to give up what you thought was a great scene."

"We felt like we had done as much as you can do with the slasher genre. We were trying to find the next group of scary movies that were ripe for parody."
