I've always been shocked and waiting-for-the-other-shoe-to-drop that a girl would ever talk to me, let alone want to marry me. They always seem to hold the power to me, and from my mother to my wife to my daughter, every time I try to really figure them out, and think I've got them pegged, I pay for it.

I mean, frankly, I'm not speaking as a representative of Disney or Pixar, I'm speaking as just myself as a filmmaker: I don't go into anything that often thinking about a sequel.

I almost feel like it's an obligation to not further the status quo if you become somebody with influence and exposure.

I'm also a huge cinephile, and I have witnessed that to honor the book literally word-for-word never makes a good movie.

If you don't think a film looks good then that is just a reflection of how bad the artist was that was using the paint that is really good.

I'm a family man, I have kids, and I go to the movies. And I'm just going to make the kind of movie I want to see.

The best stories infuse wonder.
