An interesting article on Friedberg and Seltzer

It includes an interview with them. And I'd like to highlight this section:

“Goodfellas was amazing to us,” Friedberg said. “I remember one day we said it could be funny if there was a spoof movie where, ‘Funny how? Like I’m a clown? I’m here to amuse you?’ — and then you cut to the guy and he’s wearing full clown makeup.”
