Economically, It’s More Expensive To Make Movies.

I Think For Most People, The Audience Probably Couldn't Tell The Difference, But I Know They [shots Of Visual Effects] Can Be Better. And The People Working Know They Can Be More Precise. I'm Still Doing Another Round Of Sound Mixing And Color Timing, Pretty Technical Stuff. I Think The Movie [life Of Pi] Is Really Presentable, Nothing Was Left Out That Would Take You Out Of The Movie. I Just Need To Perfect The Job And I Still Have Two Weeks To Go [to Deliver Final Cut To Fox].

Even The Favorite Reviews, The Audience Response Is The Movie Is Too Slow, Deliberately Slow. But For The Chinese Audience, The Biggest Complaint Is It Happens Too Quick. I Think The Historical Background That Build Into Our Genes Is Different. American People Has Never Been Occupied. The Deep Sadness And Sentimentality, The Cultural Background That Relates To Melodrama That We Relate To And Grow Up With, The Propaganda, I Didn't Imagine The Difference Is So Big. It's A Very Interesting Cultural Phenomenon.

I Try To Be A Partygoer. But At Some Point I Don't Know Why I'm Doing It And Fall Back. I've Been Using Repression, The Struggle Between Behaving As A Social Animal. You're Seeking To Be Honest With Your Free Will, Less Conflict. I Think That's An Important Subject With Me. That's Who I Am, How I Was Brought Up. I Think I Use That A Lot. I Mistrust Everything I Think. Things You Think You Can Trust, Believe In, Or Hang On To, Changes. That's The Essence Of Life.

Economically, It’s More Expensive To Make Movies. I Hope Digital Movies Change That.

I Look At American Movies, The Big Muscles, And Try To Apply That To Chinese Film-making.
