In theatre, there`s the director, the writer, and below them the actor. In film, it`s the actors who are most important. That goes against the grain for me. It`s been amazing for me to see the self-confidence of actors who insist on having control, because it`s going to be their faces 20ft high in the posters. I`ve been shocked by film actors - 25 and under - having such confidence and cockiness to rewrite a scene. My background is more about the director being in control. It`s all about yielding. It`s an oddly submissive relationship in which you`re moulded, Pygmalion-style.

It wasn`t the first comic I ever actually READ, but the first comic I remember slapping down hard-earned money for was a `Superman Family` Annual in which the first story featured a married Lois and Superman waking up on a cloud.

Thank you. Thank you all. This is a very, very important award for me. Star Wars, oddly enough, doesn`t really get that many awards. I`m not a big favorite with the critics, but who listens to them? I`m not a big industry favorite either, but of course they are a bunch of studio executives. The most important people for any filmmaker, the reason that I make films, is for you! The audience rules! Thank you. Thank you very much! - while receiving the Best Movie award for Revenge Of The Sith at the Peoples Choice Awards.

I was the 101st Airborne Rangers, ROTC. We trained right there in Ft. Custer. The Sgt. major trained us and this guy was in `Nam and stuff. We were out there working with the National Guard on maneuvers late at night. They showed us everything. We went to the range, shot M-16s, M-60s - did everything but sign up for the Corps. I learned discipline there. Every cadet wanted to outdo the other cadets and be the straightest arrow. My hair was buzz-short. I`d shave my head every morning. We were fanatics. This is probably why I`ve got a lot of muscle memory. It kind of helped me out later in my life. Oddly enough I still wake up five in the morning. When you have someone yelling in your face at five, you learn to get up at 4:59. - On his background and why he is a disciplined person.

But we are at war, and we here at THE DAILY SHOW will do our best to keep you informed of any late-breaking...humor we can find. Of course, our show is obviously at a disadvantage compared to the many news sources that we`re competing with'¦ at a disadvantage in several respects. For one thing, we are fake. They are not. So in terms of credibility we are, well, oddly enough, actually about even. We`re about even.
