I really love ‘Soapdish.’ I wish ‘Soapdish’ had more of a moment because I felt that that is a really strong, funny movie. Kevin Kline is hilarious in that movie.
People think I’m clever, which is hilarious. I’m like, ‘When did this happen? People used to think I couldn’t string a sentence together.’
To me, those three are the revolutionaries. Richard Pryor was honest, raw. George Carlin was brilliant. He was also deep, fearless. And Sam Kinison was another one who went deeper and he revolutionized the angle of tackling humor with the whole rock star element of yelling and screaming, which was hilarious.
I was obsessed with award shows and made charts and graphs and stuff when I was 7 years old. I found the entertainment business hilarious, ridiculous, and alluring – and my parents supported it, for better or worse.
I graduated high school a year early and moved to Los Angeles to go to acting school, which is hilarious.
For memes, I have an entire iPhone folder of photos that I’ve taken or saved because I find something about them hilarious.
Patrick is vey modest about using the Sir thing and I just inherited it by marriage, so more than anything it’s just kind of a funny little thing that we call one another from time to time. He calls me ‘His Ladyship’, which is just hilarious.
When you’re surrounded by friends and exes, there’s a whole lot of stuff that starts crawling out. But however serious and traumatic those experiences may be to the participant, to the onlooker they’re hilarious.
You have to think outside the box! Can you imagine One Direction and Eminem?! That would be hilarious.
Well, I would definitely give up performing… But I would still sit down in an office and pretend to write with Dawn, even if we never produced anything, because it’s just hilarious. I would miss that.
Love is inconvenient. Love is untidy. Love is relentless, ruthless and rapacious. Done well, it’s hilarious, playful and redemptive.
Tessa’s hilarious. I think it’s one of the things that gets overlooked because she’s always so pulled together, but she has the best sense of humor.
I had that whole banter with the police. My mates used to make up raps about Dad being a policeman, it’s hilarious.
If you play it straight it’s funny – the best comedy is always played straight down the middle. The adjustment is understanding from the screenplay that a moment is hilarious.
Most things at their core are love stories anyway, whether they realize it or not. It’s hilarious, the more seriously a show tries to take itself and detach itself from that, the more that the love story generally tends to come forward.
It’s much easier for the vegan to remain at home and do their own Christmas dinner. That way, you can enjoy your food without someone making some hilarious comment about your stuffed pepper.
The Wodehouse language is so rich and detailed and hilarious.
It’s often hilarious to me that I’m writing about Tonga or some tropical place and there’s a blizzard outside and the cows are on their backs with their hooves in the air.
It’s hilarious to me that by writing an obscene fake children’s book I am mistaken for a parenting expert.
I admire people like Kristen Wiig, who is hilarious but also does a lot of really cool films. I would love to have a career like hers.
When I was 16, I was watching ‘101 Dalmatians,’ and my mom never let me bleach my hair, so I told her I was going to dye my hair like Cruella De Vil; she didn’t believe me. I came home with my hair like this, and she didn’t talk to me for, like, a week. It was really hilarious.
Tinder in the Olympic Village is next level. It’s all athletes! In the mountain village, it’s all athletes. It’s hilarious.
ABC’s intelligently hilarious sitcom ‘Modern Family’ depicts a gay-male marriage in which both partners are refreshingly dimensional, believable human beings. The writers dare to make them flawed and thus fully delineated, but they’re not flawed in the silly, stereotypical ways that once dominated such portrayals.
I was fortunate enough to book a pilot, and we just got picked up for a midseason replacement for ABC. It’s called ‘Romantically Challenged,’ and I’m going to be playing Alyssa Milano’s little sister. The other actor in it is Kyle Bornheimer from ‘Worst Week’ – he’s hilarious.
With ‘Louis Wain,’ it’s a very eccentric film and we had an incredible time. I never thought that me, Sharon Rooney, Andrea Riseborough and Aimee Lou Wood would get to be in the same family. None of us are cat people though, which when you have 20 cats on set is hilarious.
I listen to lots of blues records and some of them are funny. BB King’s ‘How Blue Can You Get’ is hilarious.
‘Chappie’ would be like ‘RoboCop,’ but hilarious. If you mixed ‘Robocop’ with ‘E.T.’ and it was… funny, that’s what it is.
We are quite excited about making ‘Bhootnath 2.’ It is a good franchise and we would definitely like to take it ahead. We would like to make third and fourth installment as well. The basic premise of the film will remain same, the ups and downs and the hilarious moments between Mr. Bachchan and the kid.
My son thinks I’m hilarious, but he’s only 1.
You don’t even have to be a lawyer to be on the Supreme Court, which I think is hilarious.
Working on ‘Parks’ was like heaven because everyone there was just intimidatingly intelligent and funny, and we would have these hilarious debates about really tangential things. It was inspiring because I felt really challenged to be my best.
Normal people with normal problems can be hilarious.
I absolutely loved Tina Fey’s ‘Bossypants’ and didn’t want it to end. It’s hilarious as well as important. Not only did I laugh on every page, but I was nodding along, highlighting and dog-earing like crazy.
When I did ‘Lady in the Water,’ the most exciting thing to me was to get to work with Bob Balaban – I couldn’t leave the guy alone. I drove him crazy. He’s fantastic and a hilarious guy.
Laurence Olivier said in an interview once that when he plays a tragedy he always aims for the funny parts, and the other way around. Because in a comedy you look for what’s serious. I think that’s true. Sometimes things are really funny if you’re absolutely earnest. If you’re really serious, it’s hilarious.
I could party in a cardboard box with people who are funny and don’t care. For me, it’s really about who I surround myself with, so I just try to always be with hilarious people.
Something that’s a hilarious comedy, for someone else might be a drama.
I don’t have the most confidence in the world, and I’d venture to say most women in comedy don’t come from a place of, ‘Oh, I’m fabulous!’ She’s just as nervous as you are. So if you’re trying to score with a funny girl, laugh at her jokes and tell her how hilarious she is.
I think in industries riddled with bias, you tend to hire women only if their previous work is very masculine, which is hilarious given that this is not how male directors are chosen.
I loved being in the film called ‘Carnal Knowledge’ – the one with Jack Nicholson, which was very dark but a really brilliant movie. I loved being in ‘The Ritz.’ ‘The Ritz’ I think is just hilarious. I just saw it again recently and by God, it’s still funny!
My ultimate is Peter Sellers – his ability to go broad and somehow humanize that and be hilarious at the same time. He was just relatable, real at the same time as insane. I find Ricky Gervais absolutely hilarious. Steve Martin is another hero of mine – he’s a genius.
Dublin is really fun, and Irish people are hilarious.
I personally went canvassing door to door in a local race when I was in high school and thought it was kind of hilarious how worked up people got over such small stakes elections.
I love French and English bulldogs. They’re hilarious and adorable.
The cast of ‘Parks & Rec’ is just a group of unbelievably nice, humble, down to earth, hilarious friends.
I’m actually hilarious.
I was lucky enough to grow up in Western Australia and know that the Australian Outback is vast and spell-binding and heart-stoppingly beautiful, and the characters that inhabit it are unique and hilarious and tough and cheeky.
I always enjoy conversation more if there is some substance to it – which is a just incredibly hilarious thing for me to say because for many, many years I was the guy whose only contribution to any conversation was, ‘There was a funny ‘Simpson’s’ joke about that.’
Humour is learned behaviour, and I know exactly why I learned to be funny. I did it from a very early age. My dad was a hilarious man, and the way we interacted was being silly together. It was a way to hold his attention.
If I can surround myself with hilarious people every day, I will always want to go to work.
Dolly Parton is hilarious. Loretta Lynn is hilarious.
