One of the biggest changes for me on a practical level of shooting the film was having a second unit.

Life and career kind of catches up with you.

I want to do my Blade Runner, which is like a future Berlin film, which is like a thriller, but it's much deeper characters, I think.

I think I was brought up with games and I don't think that they're just Pac-Man or Space Invaders. I think we've moved on, I think that there are stories being told and worlds being explored.

Every film I try and make it the way I see it in my head, and it really just depends on the script and the people I'm working with or whatever interests me at that particular time.

I want to have the illegitimate child of independent film making and the budget to make it. That's my aspiration.

Sometimes there's a disjoint between what works on the page and what works with visual story telling.

I played lots of games and I was a fan of gaming, so I was always looking for new games.

Fantasy films tend to skew towards what Tolkien fantasy was, which is that the humans, the Hobbits and the cute creatures are the good guys, and everything that's ugly are the bad guys.

I think that idea of being far away from the people that you love is something that everyone can relate to.

I'm a cruel man to myself.

Capitalism: let live who can afford to, not simply who wishes to. Life has a price and it belongs only to those who can pay it.

My hobbies are run-on sentences.

If people don't believe the source, then we aren't going to change their minds. We just won't.

I married the man of my dreams in 1998.

Living more intensely, more lovingly, with more camaraderie, that is in itself resistance.

Most of us choose our companions and surroundings to reflect ourselves.

There were ten dancers - four guys and six girls - including me, on the Beyonce tour. Sometimes we would go out with her, to events. She was really normal - just like everybody else!

Once you start thinking more about where you want to be than about making the best product, you're screwed.

While the mind sees only boundaries, Love knows the secret way there.
