James Gunn

Sort of.

I mean, I went in to meet with him, and then by the end of that meeting, I think he asked me to write the screenplay.

I was doing, like, these sort of monologues.

It was these monologue things downtown New York, and so he kind of knew who I was from that.

Right, okay.

Yeah, the thing is, is that Troma, and I just was able to learn about every single facet of filmmaking.

So yeah, I wrote the screenplay, but I ended up, my credits, I think, are executive producer, but then also associate director.

because I basically ended up directing portions of the film.

That's a sitcom title.

It is.

One of my first jobs was to choreograph a sex scene between two women.

So that was sort of my first.

Yeah, it was horrible.

It's a different job title nowadays.

Well, I was on set every single day.

I directed the actors.

Nobody talked to the actors but me.

Gotcha.

Oh, wow.

It was like I just learned, and I would come home every day from work with the girl I was living in at the time, and I think I found my home.
