The challenge is creating a character that's rich and interesting to warrant following for a number of years.

I don't like television and movies where it's like, "Well, that was entertaining, but when I think back on it, that didn't really make sense and it's empty." That's like junk food, to me.

When I sit down, I find that it's much easier for me to want to consume a movie than to dip back into 20 or 40 or 60 hours of a television series. I think a great movie is really amazing. But, television does give you a larger canvas.

Create a really interesting, complex person that you want to know more about, and take her on a journey that is rich and fulfilling and that has an end that is perfectly fulfilling, and that has an end that is perfect for that character, and the audience will love it.

If my whole game depends on whether you can guess the ending or not, I'm done, forget it.

Let's make really good stories that people get something out of. That's the one common denominator with everything I try to do.

If people walk out of the movie and they think about it, then that's quite something.
