Wizards was my homage to Tolkien in the American idiom. I had read Tolkien, understood Tolkien, and wanted to do a sort of fantasy for American kids, and that was Wizards.

As an artist, I want to interpret my feelings

Look what Disney's done to their animation department. There wasn't an animator in charge of their animation unit!

Its all big money, high rent, high prices in New York City now. The poor people completely got rolled over. I've never seen anything like it in my life. It's disgusting.

My movies continue to be found and be sold because there's something going on in them.

I wouldn't leave Disney to do Disney.

Disney had such a hold on the mind of America-they were Adolf Hitler. The whole country thought Disney was some sort of god and that animation was some sort of pure thing for children.
