ComingSoon Editor-in-Chief Tyler Treese spoke with America: The Motion Picture director Matt Thompson about his lengthy animation career, directing his first feature film, keeping Archer feeling fresh, and his friendship with Killer Mike.
Tyler Treese: I was wondering what really attracted you to Dave Callaham’s script and how you got involved with this project?
Matt Thompson: I was the last of meme right now, but it is a family that we’ve been together for this long. I cherish each and every one of them and they make me better. They make us all better. We’re better together, stronger. I think that’s the essential message of the movie too, which is we’re better if we listen to everybody, we’re better. If we’ve listened to immigrants, people of color, men and women alike, and the company I felt that we built we all try to keep that in line too.
You’ve been able to do stuff like Dicktown and America: The Motion Picture, while still keeping Archer running. It’s such an institution at this point. Doing these other projects, does that kind of remotivate you and kind of keep the creative juices going for something as long-running as Archer?
It does and because it keeps it going for all of us, because even the people that are on Archer get to look at other projects and make comments on those. Then the other people that are working on Dicktown, like you mentioned, or Hit-Monkey, or one of the other shows get to see something else too and get the comments on that. So it kind of keeps us all sharper as to where jokes land, what stories we should be telling, because we all kind of look at the things that we’re all collectively making and are able to use other parts of our brain. Because at some point you don’t want to just be telling the same story over and over. You have to get outside yourself creatively. That’s again, the great blessing of having so many people who have trusted me for so long to work for us for so long.
