Joss Whedon Quotes

If you like dark movies or light movies, 'The Empire Strikes Back' is one of the great movies of all time. It's probably the greatest movie of all time. 'A New Hope' is a superb movie. It's probably the second-greatest movie of all time, but 'The Empire Strikes Back' is better.

I think The Empire Strikes Back had everything.

When I was a kid, 'Star Wars' was it. Like, it's in your DNA. I'm old enough to have seen the original one.

No film critic's going to say it, but 'Madagascar 3' is better than 'The Artist.'

'Grease' is an awesome movie. I wish they'd make a new one, more for our time. The graphics are terrible when you look back on it.

I saw 'A New Hope' on my Vidamax because I came a little late to the party.

Comparing 'Christmas Vacation' to 'It's A Wonderful Life' is the silliest thing. That film starred the greatest movie actor of all time, and the idea that our movie could ever be connected in some fashion to something so brilliant and beautiful always made feel like, 'That's all they had to write about?'

The original release of 'Star Wars' was literally the first movie I remember seeing in a theater. Four years old was probably too young - I recall believing, for some time, that Darth Vader was a robot.

One corollary of the wretchedness of the second trilogy of 'Star Wars' films has been the final, demented sanctification of the first trilogy of films.

I'm not a big fan of prequels to be honest.

I did see 'Zoolander II,' and I thought it was a cool movie, but I liked the first one way more.

I don't think there's an actor in the world who ever expects to get a call from the 'Star Wars' casting director - least of all me.

The special thing about 'Star Wars' is you can come to it and become a fan at any age. It's such an interesting franchise. I wasn't lucky enough to see it as a young kid, and I didn't have any older siblings that loved it and made me want to watch it, too.

A 'Guardians' sequel and a 'Gilmore Girls' reboot right at the same time was really awesome.

When I'm channel surfing, and 'Silence of the Lambs' comes on, I have trouble turning it off. I wouldn't say that about 'Beautiful Mind.' It's a good movie, but I'm much more in awe of what Jonathan Demme did with 'Silence of the Lambs.'
