In Dire Economic Times, Movies Are Relatively

You Need Others. Too Often People Think That Being Unique Means Being Isolated, And Being A Great Artist Means Coming Up With Genius Ideas Out Of Nowhere. Nothing Could Be Farther From The Truth.

When You Make These Films, They Become Like Your Children. But At A Certain Point, They Don’t Belong To You Anymore; They Belong To The World.

You Cannot Base A Whole Movie On Just The Imagery Alone. It Has To Be The Story And The Characters.

I've Got Disney Blood Running Through My Veins.

It [moviemaking] Is About Entertaining Audiences With Great Characters And Great Stories, You Want To Make People Laugh, You Want To Make People Cry, You Want To Have Great Music That Is Memorable. You Want A Movie That, As Soon As It's Over, You Want To Watch It Again, Just Like That. That's What It Is, Whether It's Live-action, Animation, Hand Drawn, Computer, Special Effects, Puppet Animation, It Doesn't Matter. That's The Goal Of A Filmmaker.
