I think the excitement of movies is discovering stuff you weren't expecting, and I hope to preserve that.

Of course there are always exceptions, but opinions are not to be feared.

For me, I feel like, between 'Tron' and 'Oblivion,' I've gotten to fulfill my 'Star Wars' fantasies, in a way.

The commercial music video industry is very hard to break into, and until you break in, that first job is the hardest thing in the world to get.

In a science fiction movie, the first act is a little longer than it is in most movies because there is so much world building to do.

As a director, if you know what you want, then it's not scary.

It's a fine line to find that balance: to show people enough to give them the promise of something unique, and something they want to see, but at the same time make sure that when they show up for the movie, they're surprised by what they eventually get.
