You can't dictate if a character's going to come off as sympathetic to an audience. I just tried to play it as honest as possible.

I love the rush of being creative. I really think I live for it.

At the core of these movies, Saw One and Saw Two, it's a very real situation. A guy cheats on his wife and didn't value what he had. It's the same thing in my story. Being a dad and playing someone whose last words to his son were 'go to hell'. I say to my son, the last thing I say is 'I love you'.

I try to ground most of my characters in reality somehow. That's kind of what I bring to the table.

The food in Europe is pretty disappointing. I like fried chicken. But other than that Europe is great.

I don't sleep very much. I really like to work, though. I feel like a kid in a candy store.

I was also a fan of the first one Saw movie. I knew there was a danger in doing the sequel, especially like this. They have such a core audience for the Saw movies. The fans of the movie actually demanded a sequel. They were on the internet going crazy. I don't even go on the internet. I don't even know how all this stuff happens. But they wanted it and one the one hand that's good, because you know there's an audience.
