I Like The Idea Of R-rated Franchises.

You Have The Power To Pause Stuff And You Have The Power To Go To The Bathroom. You Can Do Whatever You Want In Your Own Home. It's A Much More Relaxed Thing. It's More Like A Book, It Seems To Me. That's Kind Of The Way I Watch Movies.

I Learned Just To Be A Belligerent Asshole, Which Was Really: "you Have To Get What You Need To Get Out Of It." You Have To Fight For Things You Believe In, And You Have To Be Smart About How You Position It So That You Don't Just Become White Noise.

Directing Ain't About Drawing A Neat Little Picture And Showing It To The Cameraman. I Didn't Want To Go To Film School. I Didn't Know What The Point Was. The Fact Is, You Don't Know What Directing Is Until The Sun Is Setting And You've Got To Get Five Shots And You're Only Going To Get Two.
