People always want the stars of movies to fall in love with one another.

Having been dumped so many times in my life, I thought I could sympathize with Bellas character.

The reason I make movies now has a lot to do with having seen Star Wars when I was seven years old. That's the formative movie-going experience of my life.

The Internet is a fantastic, strange place where you can write an open letter and be reasonably assured that people are going to read it.

I try to put out fires when bizarre rumors get started.

I think it's so incredibly special to be able to try to recapitulate that feeling I had when I was sitting in that theater, as a 7-year-old. It's an extraordinary job. I'm incredibly lucky.

I am a surfer, though quite a poor one.
