When I'm shooting, really the audience I'm thinking the hardest about is that first test screening audience who I want to like the film and that first opening weekend audience.

The success of the second 'Austin Powers' caught us by surprise a little bit. We had decided not to do even a second one, unless the audience wanted it and we could do something better.

I figure if it's turns out well the film will have its own momentum and will carry into the video release. So it's hard to really picture the DVD version when I'm in production.

I'm not one of these directors, so far, that wants to have a whole separate director's cut of these things. So far they've turned out to be kind of the length that they wanted to be.

I learn so much from watching films like that with commentary and then when you get to hear another filmmaker talk about their films it's a really great experience.

I think sequels should be earned and we won't do it unless the script is better than the first one.

They say there are about 12 million illegal immigrants in this country. But if you ask a Native American, that number is more like 300 million.

I've been immersed in it too long. My spirit is wobbly and my mind is confused. The hurt has become too great.

It is evident that an acquaintance with natural laws means no less than an acquaintance with the mind of God therein expressed.

They'll never be able to forget us.

Utah sells itself to Fortune 500 companies as a noncasino state where employers don't have to be concerned about absenteeism and other problems associated with gambling

I assure you, princess, if you saw the real me, you’d run for cover. (Zarek) Only if I knew you’d be waiting under that cover for me. (Astrid)

You have to be kind of clued into them, they are a world of their own, and most people find them disappointing because the best short stories are not constructed like novels.

There's a huge wave of anti-establishment feeling. There's an enormous amount of anger. And it's collapsing governments and political movements across the world right now.
