Billy Crystal knows how to make people laugh. He's got 30 years on stage... there's no telling him what's funny.

[Asked if he thought his sardonic tale of two embezzlers who run into violently funny complications one Christmas Eve in Kansas is] too intelligent for American audiences, ... what studio marketers call the 'first tier.' There are perhaps 50 theaters in the whole country that represent that audience, and the highest quality and most artistic films really can only survive and thrive in those markets.

I've wrestled with substance abuse. I smoked cigarettes for almost 30 years, pot for 20. I went through a period of cocaine abuse. I gave it all up in the mid-80s.

I feel a big obligation to the audience, almost in a moral sense, to say something useful. If I'm going to spend a year of my life on these things, I want something that I feel that strongly about.

Second City people I knew from the old days-they're the nicest group of people in the world. All the bad blood stuff we read about Saturday Night Live in the early days, this was just the opposite.

I call it the 'Whoever Will Show Up Award.'

The movie Vacation had a whole different ending. They never even got to the amusement park, Wallyworld, at the end of Vacation. The last 20 minutes of the film was entirely different-and bombed so badly that the audience just stopped cold.

A psychologist said to me, there are only two important questions you have to ask yourself. What do you really feel? And, what do you really want? If you can answer those two, you probably can leave your neuroses behind you.

As consultants, they actually delivered to us a fairly detailed scientific proposal that told us they would look for small changes in temperature and air pressure, as well as odors and vapors of different kinds, ... So, all of our equipment design was predicated on the 'what if?' reality.

I used to believe that anything can be funny or anything could be made funny, but I think that was a little more of a cynical, post-collegiate posture. It was a National Lampoon attitude-everything was fair game.

I totally claim that it was us that turned 'slimed' into a verb,

I've never been a big believer in ghosts or the spirit world, and for me, that was part of the point of the movie, ... What the 'Ghostbusters' represented was the triumph of human courage and human ingenuity. People create their own monsters. Our fears come from within us, not outside.

There's kind of this baptism under fire when you direct for the first time. I had directed something in video before I did Caddyshack and that was the only thing I'd done.

No matter what I have to say, I'm still trying to say it in comedic form.

It amazes me how expensive star-driven comedies can be. But the studio wasn't skimping on the production values because they had paid out a lot of money in salaries.

Dan has many interesting sidelines and he's fascinated by the world of paranormal. It's part of his family history, in fact, ... He has relatives he claims were spirit mediums. He also believes in alien visitation and there is some speculation that Dan is an alien. He's so genuinely enthusiastic about the stuff. That's what was on the page when he showed it to us.

I'd written and acted in Stripes, and Murray and Aykroyd had the Saturday Night connection, and Ivan had the Canadian connection to Aykroyd.

I'm not a believer in the pratfall. I don't think it's funny just to have someone fall down.

I'd like to think I'd never do a gratuitous fart joke.

With both Caddyshack and Vacation, it's not like the subjects were serious enough that they engaged my interest for another round. I love the characters, and the actors were great, but I didn't see the need to make another Vacation movie.
