It's a mistake for Hollywood to impose themselves on the gaming space. Not only is it arrogant, but it hasn't really worked.

My respect for animators and animation directors has gone way, way up and it is just not something you can phone in.

Everyone always wants to find the answer, to feel that things are resolved. But in dreams, maybe there isn't an answer so much.

There is a sense that animated movies are suddenly a genre. I just don't believe they are; it's a technique to tell a story.

All the traditional westerns are about choice and the individual. When progress comes it's much more difficult to define the individual in that world.

I just watched so many Westerns as a kid that you end up using archetypes and sort of tropes of that genre, because there's a language there and you can twist it and turn it on its head or play to it or go sideways at any time.

I'd love to do a PG-13 animated adventure. It would be great.
