So Much Of Literary Sci-fi Is About Creating Worlds That Are Rich And Detailed And Make Sense At A Social Level. We'll Create A World For People And Then Later Present A Narrative In That World.

I've Tried Not To Get Sucked Into The Hollywood Hierarchy System. Personally, I Don't Like It When People Are Deferential To Me Because I'm An Established Filmmaker. It's A Blue-collar Sensibility.

I Try To Live With Honor, Even If It Costs Me Millions Of Dollars And Takes A Long Time. It's Very Unusual In Hollywood. Few People Are Trustworthy - A Handshake Means Nothing To Them. They Feel They're Required To Keep An Agreement With You Only If You're Successful Or They Need You.

I Love It When I Have A Nightmare To Me That Means I Got My Money's Worth Out Of That Eight Hours

I'm A Curious Guy. I Can't Turn Away From An Investigative Story, When It Comes To The Forensic Analysis. I've Done 33 Dives, To The Titanic Wreck Site. I've Spent Over 50 Hours Piloting Robotic Vehicles At That Wreck Trying To Piece Together What Happened During The Disaster. How The Ship Broke Up, Comparing The Historical Record With The Forensic Record. Documentaries Are Kind Of My New Life. I Love Documentary Filmmaking.
