Fantasy is an 'F' word that hopefully the five second delay won't do anything with.

For a lot of my childhood, I didn't want to direct movies because I didn't really know what directing was.

I find that in the process of making a film you're constantly discovering things that you never even imagined would work at the beginning. Actors come into the film and do things you never even imagined. Production designers come in, the director of photography lights it in a way that you never imagined. So, it's always evolving, always exciting.

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

Most directors prefer to direct everything themselves. I thought I could on Lord Of The Rings, but very quickly found out that the sheer scale prevented it.

I am a big Dragon fan. I've said it before- And I was fortunate enough to be born a Dragon in the Chinese Horocope.

There's a generation of children who don't like black and white movies. There's a level of impatience or intolerance.
