They want to let the audience figure things out and let the reaction shot get the laugh.

Will and Tommy Lee are the only actors I've ever worked with where neither of them want to say any lines.

These movies are like my kids. I just love them to death. Some of them go to Harvard and some of them can barely graduate high school.

I play the father in the scene when Will and Tommy go back to Tommy's old apartment. It was a big mistake. I hope not to be in the next movie I direct.
