I love the idea that if you build something with enough depth and texture, you can watch it again and again and see new things every time, and that's very important.

My kids were always my test audience. I'd take home the dailies and show them what we'd been filming that day.

Inevitably in any work you do I think that there is a sense of continuity, and I like that.

I think one of the great bits of The Muppet show is that it was set in a 19th century British theater and they live so nicely amongst that lovely old theater.

Honestly, puppets themselves are actors effectively. The joy of puppetry is that it is very simple and low-fi, which I love.

There's a cyclical nature to what people like in the world. Through time, things come around again.

I never want to make a movie which is going to be CG filled, cold, and computerized.
