As for the Folsom Prison show, ... would anybody have the guts to do that show now 50 Cent, maybe I think the whole idea of even playing to a crowd of people like that is so politically unfavorable now - it's like, 'What are you doing, singing for these people Do they deserve it' There's such anger in our culture right now, that kind of grace and forgiveness, we don't see that very often.

The funny thing about me is I move from genre to genre, but I essentially shoot all the movies the same way.

There's a level where the themes of a film are very relevant to me and also the idea of finding out how relevant one genre is to another. I think that westerns and samurai films and superhero films have a lot in common. It's just that the scale of the visuals in tentpole films can sometimes overwhelm the drama.

Movies aren't just supposed to be a representation of reality. They're supposed to be an art.

A fantasy film is often improved by some kind of human reality.

I'd be really interested in making a dramatic, low-key 3D film.

The boundary between real life and acting is hard to find.
