Memory can change the shape of a room; it can change the color of a car. And memories can be distorted. They're just an interpretation, they're not a record, and they're irrelevant if you have the facts. (Leonard Shelby, Memento)

The problem with big films is they snowball very rapidly and you can never pull back. It's a pipeline that needs to be fed.

I've always believed that if you want to really try and make a great film, not a good film, but a great film, you have to take a lot of risks.

I'm taking a bit of a wait-and-see attitude towards 3D.

I think there are advantages to different scales of filmmaking. You wouldn't want to do just one thing.

The film that really struck me was Ridley Scott's Blade Runner. That was a film I watched many, many times and found endlessly fascinating in it's density. I think the density of that film is primarily visual density, atmospheric, sound density, moreso than narrative density.

We all wake up in the morning wanting to live our lives the way we know we should. But we usually don't, in small ways. That's what makes a character like Batman so fascinating. He plays out our conflicts on a much larger scale.
