It took me three, four years, to get from my first film to my second film, banging on doors, trying to get people to give me a chance. Writing, struggling, with no money in the bank, working as an editor on the side. Working as a cameraman on the side. Getting little jobs, eking out a living. Trying to stay alive, and pushing a script that nobody wanted.

Although I write screenplays, I don't think I'm a very good writer.

I loved photography and everybody said it was a crazy thing to do because in those days nobody made it into the film business. I mean, unless you were related to somebody there was no way in.

A special effect is a tool, a means of telling a story. A special effect without a story is a pretty boring thing.

There wasn't much as a kid that inspired me in what I did as an adult.

'Young Indiana Jones' was one of the happiest times I ever had, so I love television.

For the third trilogy, I don't know if I will still be alive when it comes the time to make them.
