It's so hard to find a director who, when you look at their body of work, you like everything.

I think when you're doing something cutting edge like 'The Matrix,' it might mean when everybody's saying 'no' that you're really on the right track.

I think that running a studio gave me an appetite for making a lot of different kinds of movies and it's given me the opportunity to do that.

I used to do a stunt in almost every movie. When I became an executive, all the insurance guys freaked out.

I mean, I'm not a contrarian.

My experiences with the older audience and, selectively, the people I hang out with or run into, they all want to see Arnold [Schwarzenegger] kick some ass.

I don't like the term 'ensemble.' It's bland to me.
