Jason Reitman Trademarks

  1. Films typically revolve around characters who are brashly self-confident, but begin to rethink their lives and responsibilities.
  2. Highly subjective narration by the main character
  3. Elaborate opening title sequences in all of his films
  4. Theme of generational gap between older and younger characters (Juno (2007), Up in the Air (2009)).
  5. [Ensemble cast] Frequently works with J.K. Simmons, ‘Sam Elliott’, Jason Bateman.
  6. Comedy films touching on serious subjects (Media spin and the dangers of cigarettes in Thank You for Smoking (2005), teen pregnancy in Juno (2007), economic downturn in Up in the Air (2009)).

Jason Reitman Quotes

  • I like to tell original stories, and the most simplistic argument would be that if you want to tell original stories, tell stories about women.
  • I always refer to a piece of advice my father gave me the night before I started shooting ‘Thank You for Smoking’. He said, ‘Always remember: it’s not your job to be funny. Your barometer for comedy is nowhere as good as your barometer for truth.
  • I don’t want to make films that give you the answer. If there is a message to my films – and I hope there isn’t – it’s to be open-minded.
  • Do you know how many times I get asked if I want to do Ghostbusters 3? Looking at my career so far, I mean if you just looked at my two films, I would make the most boring Ghostbusters movie. It would just be people talking about ghosts, there wouldn’t be any ghost-busting in it.
  • Being the son of a filmmaker, you are aware of a career as a director. You don’t think of it as just movies, but as a life. I couldn’t help but wonder how my life was going to go … One film does not make a career.
