I always wanted to tell stories. From the time I had 20 cents or a quarter in my pocket, I could peddle my old Rambler 500 down to the corner store and buy comic books.

I love making genre films. It's something I've really been attracted to since I was a kid, mostly because, as a kid, it was forbidden fruit.

I realized that there was an actual job of making movies. They weren't created by elves.

The key is to work with people who are passionate about storytelling and who have a similar sensibility of the type and nature of the stories that you want to tell.

I never really understood how movies were made, because it was such a technical accomplishment.

I learned so much about the making of Star Wars and that became a real drive for me, right from the time I was 12 or 13.
