Rather than thinking in terms of a specific genre or specific kind of thing, I hope I can just stay relatively small and keep making my movies. If I can keep writing them and making them, I'll be happy.

If you make something interesting, inevitably not everybody is going to like it.

The critical reaction to 'Bloom' has been similar to 'Brick.' There are people on board with it and people who are not.

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

I think what I love about science fiction and what sci-fi can be really good at is obviously you're working with outlandish concepts that have very little to do with the real world, like time travel for instance.

I do think that I'm a big believer in having an idea or having ideas and just tucking them away in the back of your brain. Even if you aren't consciously thinking of them, I think they simmer. You're working on them, even if you don't know you're working on them, and I think having something in your head for a while is a valuable thing.

The momentum of production keeps you from giving up, so it's really the editing and writing phases where things can look bleakest.
