I love movies. I mean, I really, really love movies.

I want it to be able to hold up in 30 years' time. So, I'm really thinking about everything.

You know, the best thing you can say about a horror film is, 'Don't see it.'

I have the infinite galaxy from '2001 as my screensaver - so if I space out while I'm writing and it goes to screensaver, I can just stare off into the stars.

'Eraserhead' is a weird, horrible nightmare, and it doesn't narratively make sense. Stuff's happening, but you honestly feel like you're in a nightmare, and it has such disturbing imagery that it stays with you forever once you've seen it.

I think filmmakers, in general... There are some awesome, really great filmmakers - but on the whole, filmmakers, actors, I think they are the biggest bunch of whiny, over-paid babies on the planet.

When I was filming the death scene [in Inglourious Basterds], and I'm killing somebody, I had to work myself up.
