#Trademark
1Tongue-in-cheek and witty approach in his documentaries.
2His horseshoe moustache
#Quote
1There are all these stereotypical views of what 'Comic-Con' is about - like the sweaty, smelly guy who lives in his parents' basement. Well, you still have the guy who lives in his parents' basement, but you're also getting the blossom of geek love because female attendance keeps rising.
2My girlfriend [Alexandra] and I have since split up, my work being one of the contributing factors...
3Stuff can make you feel good, but you have to do something deeper to make you feel whole. For me, it's making movies with a great team who feel as fulfilled as I do, and spending time with my family. And for my family it's Mane and Tail Shampoo ..all the way.
4[on 'POM Presents: The Greatest Movie Ever Sold' which deals with product placement] If he were alive today, who would Jesus have as a corporate sponsor? Jesus would definitely be sponsored by Birkenstock. And let's face it, Birkenstock would fit his image of being a natural Earth-loving son... But of course, I prefer Merrells.
5[Responding to an observation about his light-hearted approach to the search for Osama bin Lauden] Nobody likes to be poked with a stick. But everybody likes to be tickled with a feather.
6[Commenting on "Super Size Me"] "As one family member told me, it's simply a really good bad idea. I guess our timing was perfect. And that's really exciting."
