I Have Hope. I Have No Expectations.

If You Need To Get In Physical Shape For A Film And You Have To Maintain That For Six Months, At The Start Of The Film, I Was Never Able To Do It.

Quite Often On A Movie Like Total Recall You Have This Training Period Of Two Or Three Months Where, Like On The First 'underworld' I Was Doing Gymnastics And Trampolining And All This Stuff Which I Don't Do In The Movie Necessarily, But Mentally It Helps. You Come Home And You Go: 'well, I've Done All That. I Must Be An Action Star Now!' So It Helps You Focus A Little Bit And Gets You Fit.

The Sea Always Offers Up Incredible Stories Of Survivors' Fortitude. Myths Of A Lot Of Countries Have Variations On That.

I Think That Is What You Want To Do As A Cinemagoer - To Experience Something Fully. Some Things Don't Let You Experience Them Fully. It May Be Your Own Preordained Prejudice Where You Can't Experience Them Fully. But When You Come Out Of The Cinema Having Felt, Thought, And Experienced Your Way Through Two Hours, That Is A Really Cool Thing.

I Love The Grandiosity, How Sweepingly Entertaining Films Can Be. And I Think There's A Place For Films That Pry More Into The Human Condition.
