I swam a little bit in high school but I wasn't a jock.

It's so hard and impossible to shoot in L.A. The costs are astronomical.

There's no such thing as an easy anything.

I really was very impressed with DMX during the whole experience on 'Romeo Must Die.' I like working with him. I liked him. And I was very impressed with the reaction of the audience when he was in the picture.

It's financially advantageous to make a picture in Berlin, Germany. They have a very effective rebate system.

Movies that tend to be converted or tend to be 3D in a late decision are not effective.

You know for years before the notion of sequels, actors were the franchise. John Wayne would rarely do sequels, but he kind of played the same guy with a different name in every movie. I have no problem with using actors as franchises. And that's what is fun to do.
