In real life there are no bad guys. Everybody just has their own perspective.

It's a standard staple in Japanese cinema to cut somebody's arm off and have red water hoses for veins, spraying blood everywhere.

I'm a big collector of vinyl - I have a record room in my house - and I've always had a huge soundtrack album collection.

I will never do Pulp [Fiction] 2 but having said that, I could very well do other movies with these characters.

If my answers frighten you then you should cease asking scary questions.

I couldn't spell anything. I couldn't remember anything, but I could go to a movie and I knew who starred in it, who directed it, everything.

When I was on The View, Barbara Walters was asking me about the blood and stuff, and I said, 'Well, you know, that's a staple of Japanese cinema.' And then she came back, 'But this is America.' And I go, 'I don't make movies for America. I make movies for planet Earth.'
