I'm a laugher and a lover of comedy.

I don't have any regrets.

Before I did 'Rush Hour,' I was a big fan of Jackie Chan movies and I had seen all of them.

I want people to see my movies. My talent, my sensibilities are what people want to see in the movies... While I have the talent to make the kind of movies people want to see I want to continue to do that, keep making big pictures and make what I love. I’m really just making the films I want to see. There’s not a strategy.

Movies are the biggest export in the world, the biggest American export. It influences people all over the world.

Producing is making films without having to work sometimes. It's still making films, but it's a different job.

I'd want to marry Cate Blanchett, date Kate Bosworth, and spend the weekend with Elisha Cuthbert.
