I don't feel so strongly against remakes, but if I don't like it, I guess I just don't do it. It is what it is. Hollywood is driven by the financial system, so if they think that it has a brand and people are going to go see it because it's a recognizable property, they're going to remake it.

Hollywood is just so strange. It's like, everyone has a whole bunch of stuff boiling away and whichever one happens first, happens. That one, we're still in the process of, you know, trying to write the script. So, it's still very early stages at this point. Yeah.

If your franchise has been around for awhile you have to find ways to keep it fresh.

You know music and sound design can be very powerful with how you use it but also the absence of sound can say a lot as well.

I'm a big movie fan, and I want to make movies in every genre. I want to make my romantic comedy one day.

I've always said that with a lot of the horror franchises that I've started, it's like directing a pilot. I come in, I direct the first movie and all these directors come in and direct all the sequels after me and hey have to kind of retain the look, the tone, and the characters.

I think you cannot be too complacent. I think that's dangerous and you cannot take anything for granted.
