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.

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

You are a product of what you watch as a kid largely.

The Muppet Show is very much seen as an English thing. So for us in the U.K. it is one of the treasures of the history of children's TV and of comedy basically.

You're basically the same person forever so you find the same stuff funny forever. The Muppet Show spoke to me at 5 and it speaks to me in my late 30s in the same way.

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.
