John Hamburg

One of the most enjoyable interviews I've done. Awesome job, @alfaforeman. Truly hard to believe it's been 20 years since this movie came out. indiewire.com/features/inter…

@remelraks Wow, congratulations! Finishing a first draft is a big deal. Not sure how I inspired you, but whatever it takes to get it done, that's the important thing!

Draft 1 of my first screenplay is complete currently going through for corrections notes and rewrites. Shoutout to @johnhamburg for inspiring me to wrote my first screenplay, a romcom.

@WPeckny Thanks so much, Walter. Not sure about a sequel, but I agree with you that those actors had amazing chemistry. That's what happens when you cast genius talents in all the roles...

@johnhamburg Really think you should make a I Love You Man sequel, call it something else, but all the characters had really great chemistry.

@RHodgeLaw Phil was always my only choice to play Sandy Lyle. I did write it with him in mind and do not know what I would have done had he not said yes!

@gatell_lisa I love this. So glad your mom is getting some laughs from our movie! Thank you for sharing, Lisa and best to your and your mom.

@johnhamburg I've just discovered "Along Came Polly", along with my 89-year-old bedridden mother who watches it over and over again. We laugh every time. Now that's funny!She used to watch "Downton Abbey" repetitively.

@nico_appleby Thx so much, Nicole!

This piece really touched me. As a comedy writer/director, I make movies to entertain audiences (certainly not critics 😬) so when this gentleman tagged me on Twitter, I felt compelled to share it. Thx for sending this my way, Kris!

@stevenallen40 Thx, Steven! Making that movie was a dream experience from beginning to end.

@TheIndustry13 Thx so much! Any fan of SAFE MEN is a friend for life... I've been loving watching Steve Zahn's amazing performance on THE WHITE LOTUS and remembering how much fun I had working with him so early in both of our careers...

@johnhamburg Randomly remembering how awesome SAFE MEN is. That is all.

@melissamonetxxx @JohnFetterman I'm a huge fan of @JohnFetterman. I'm in!

In light of recent bizarre, unhinged requests on official letterhead from Pennsylvania electeds, my office formally requested Paul Rudd to re-enact scenes from “I Love You, Man” with me.

@WatrCoolrPod Sure

@johnhamburg Awesome! Can I DM to work something out schedule wise?

@johnhamburg wanna talk about Zoolander on a podcast? :)

@AITAF @jonhuertas This is so cool! I'm so appreciative that @jonhuertas is a fan of our movie (and more importantly, thanks to Jon and everyone else attending this event for their service). Let me know if I can help in any way. -JH

@daviddrum22 I do love "When Harry Met Sally" which Ephron wrote, and I LOVE YOU, MAN was most certainly structured as a romantic comedy between friends, so that movie and other rom-coms were an influence on the structure...

@johnhamburg Is I LOVE YOU, MAN a satire of upper middle class men (the fencing, the investing/real estate speculation, Favreau's piano, Rush) or an earnest attempt at a sort of raunchy Nora Ephron-esque romance for upper middle class men? Like the movie, just curious. Take care.

@daviddrum22 Hi David. Interesting question. I never thought about it as either of these things. To me it was just a story of an average man -- whose taste was more refined and a bit different from what society might traditionally deem "macho".

@PromQueenMusic Happy almost 40th... and so glad you're a "Safe Men" fan! This is such a thoughtful question -- hmmm... I guess renting it on iTunes or Amazon would do the trick...
