I think there's still a little bit of that 9 year-old in me and I'm pretty happy.

I didn't want my kids having to pass through an airport named after their father.

The only thing about 3-D is the dullness of the image.

No matter how many great performances or exciting visuals we put together for the movie, we found that it was all somewhat two dimensional until we added the emotional heart of Howard Shore's music. Then, and only then, did the film come to life.

One of the first movies I ever saw was 'Batman,' based on the TV series with Adam West and Burt Ward.

It's all about his determination. You never, ever, give up once you start something, once you're on the trail of something you don't stop and that's what you have to go through when you're making a movie too. Once the train's rolling, you have to stick with it.

I think 3D at 24 frames is interesting, but it's the 48 that actually allows 3D to achieve the potential that it can achieve, because it's less eye strain and you have a sharper picture which creates more of a 3-dimensional world.
