I think the feeling was that ‘Venture Brothers’ really has something to sell in terms of a feature. ‘Aqua Teen’ is an element minute cartoon, and its very subversive and non sequitur and weird. We were writing the one show where we were constantly like, ‘God, I wish we had another hour to tell this story.’ It seemed like a natural fit. – Christopher McCulloch
‘Snowpiercer’ is a little bit more experimental, I think, and crafted for a slightly different audience. ‘The Giver’ is more about teen angst. – Marco Beltrami

In my teen years leading up to the Olympics, I loved having the excuse to skip out on parties because of skating. Partying wasn’t my thing anyway. Mostly I hung out with other skaters. We were all buddies, so it’s not like I missed out on socializing. I was really enjoying myself. – Dorothy Hamill
I’m pretty sure this is it for the teen movie thing. It’s so frustrating to read when you get to page 20 and you’re like, Oy! It’s the same thing again! – Marla Sokoloff

I think doing ‘Teen Wolf’ is just giving me a really great opportunity to possibly get other jobs and show what I can do. – Colton Haynes
