A Good Year For Me Is When

I Always Say To People When I'm Trying To Get Something Going, Bringing On Other Producers Or Other Directors, "you Can Think Of 95 Reasons Why Not To Make A Movie. You've Got To Address Why You Want To Make The Movie And Get It Done. Just Do It." I Tend To Live By That Rule.

The Time It Would Take Me To Write A Screenplay It Would Take Me The Time To Make Two Films. I Would Rather Make The Movies And I'm A Better Moviemaker Than I A Would Be Writer.

There's Nothing Really Original. Alien Was A B-movie. Five Directors Passed On It Before Me. Because I Was Into Heavy Metal, I Read It, And Thought, "wow, I Want To Do This." I Was On A Plane To Hollywood In 22 Hours. It Was A B-movie And Was Elevated To An A-plus Movie By Sheer Good Taste.

In My View, The Only Way To See A Film Remains The Way The Filmmaker Intended: Inside A Large Movie Theater With Great Sound And Pristine Picture.

That's A Heavy Word, But Picking Up A Newspaper Every Day, How Can You Not Despair At What's Happening In The World, And How We're Represented As Human Beings? The Disappointments And Corruption Are Dismaying At Every Level. And The Biggest Source Of Evil Is Of Course Religion... Everyone Are Tearing Each Other Apart In The Name Of Their Personal God. And The Irony Is, By Definition, They're Probably Worshipping The Same God.
