10	->''...on classic Hollywood “screwball” comedies, comedy musicals, and Shakespearean comedy, almost everyone may display a formidable line in quick-witted repartee and wordplay, enabling anyone to play the joker when the plot permits; this is a convention of the form, and doesn’t imply that the participants are all ''really'' clever and quick-witted, any more than someone who gets an aria in an opera has to be thought of as a professional-grade singer (with their own orchestra) within the setting.''

13	->[[Creator/JossWhedon Whedon, Joss]] (n.) — Ginger feminist Shakespeare-nerd creator of nobly canceled TV shows turned [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Marvel Movieverse]] auteur. In [[Film/TheAvengers2012 Avengers]], directed action scenes that could have been made by literally anybody, but also reimagined the superhero team as a Helicarrier full of sarcastic misfit divas, making the film [[CreatorThumbprint identifiably his own]]; no other director of a Marvel movie has pulled that trick off nearly as well.

16	->'''righteousbookworm:''' I want to express my appreciation for your writing style, particularly the Literature/InCryptid books. It tends to go "Snark, snark, something terrible that makes stupid sense, snark snark, achingly beautiful prose that makes me have to put the book down to savor the line, snark, line that makes me want to cry, scene that makes hyperventilate with laughter, achingly beautiful prose, bit that makes my heart leap into my throat, snark, snark." It's amazing that you manage this across multiple everythings.

20	->''People forget to put beauty into a film. There’s a lot of snark, there’s a lot of sarcasm, there’s a lot of cutesy jokes in movies. There’s a lot of people playing things off as if they’re super cool and therefore diluting the sense of stakes, the sense of jeopardy. I go straight at just being earnest. If there’s jeopardy, it’s real. People could die. And if you like what you see, let’s just hang out for a bit. Let’s not rush through this because of artificial concepts like ‘plot.’ It sounds dumb but it works.''
21	-->--'''Creator/JamesCameron''' during [[https://www.thewrap.com/james-cameron-avatar-2-hangout-scenes-way-of-water/ an interview with The Wrap]] on the lengthy 'Hangout' Sequences in ''Film/AvatarTheWayOfWater''
