I just don't think CGI is up to manipulating the human face yet. I feel like you can get away with it with aliens or monsters or something that's intentionally foreign, but I have yet to see anything digital to do with the human face that doesn't just look ridiculous.

All my favorite movies are somebody else's least favorite movie.

Unlike some of the time-travel movies I love, like 'Primer' or '12 Monkeys,' 'Looper' is not about time travel. It's about this situation that time travel creates and the people dealing with that situation. So narratively, the big challenge was to have time travel get out of the way.

You come out of each movie just thinking, "God, if we can fool them into letting us make just one more, we can get it right."

My favorite sci-fi always uses its hook to amplify some bigger theme or idea - some emotional thrust.

The fanboy community can smell in an instant, like smelling fear, when something was tailor-made in order to reach them as a demographic.

Well, you know, we all grew up as 'Star Wars' fans.
