We live in an age of instant knowledge. And there's almost a sense of entitlement to that.

It's cool to be a nerd. There's a general understanding that smartphones didn't come from jocks. The digital age was foreseen by a group of short-sleeved, buttoned-down, white-shirted guys and their female equivalents designing the very stuff that's now ubiquitous.

I'm not trying to be coy or manipulative or Machiavellian, I want to spark people's imaginations.

I love the idea of anthropomorphizing machines. I love the idea of taking technology and giving it a personality.

I'd love to do a movie where the monster is human, where the issue is not otherworldly, or horror or science fiction.

I'd like to use IMAX. The problem with IMAX is that it's a very loud camera. It's a very unreliable camera. Only so much film can be in the camera. You can't really do intimate scenes with it.

I sort of love the idea of, you know, watching something and then having to wait for the next episode.
