It has been said that I make chick flicks. This is not a compliment.

The truth is, that what women have to do is not work for less money. They have to walk away.

Because all the movies that we tell ourselves we can't make - ballets, westerns, dramas, everything that are the hardest things to make - those are the movies that are not only winning awards which is fantastic, but also those movies that are commercial. We won't see a fascinating season like this for a while.

Brands should think of themselves not as storytellers but storybuilders. We plant seeds of content and let our community build on it.

Comic book characters are characters who wear costumes. They're not necessarily different than other characters. The trend I think that you're seeing are comic book movies, at least the ones that Marvel makes, don't have comic book stories. They have dramatic human stories.

Richard Donner made great movies. Seminal movies. The Academy, though, and we have to be careful here, should recognize popular films. Popular films are what make it all work. There was a time when popular movies were commercial movies, and they were good movies, and they had to be good movies. There was no segregation between good independent films and popular movies.

I always wanted to make movies no matter what. It's true. No matter how I was getting to do it, that's what I wanted to do.
