[Writing scripts] I'm not looking to jump in and make super mainstream movies. I still like to make movies that I like to see.

I really just do what I like. I don't understand what the general public likes sometimes.

I didn't grow up in a creative environment. It was very boring town, boring everything. You go to school and you basically hate all the other kids because you don't understand them or what it's all about. At the same time I'm happy for that because I became very withdrawn and when you become withdrawn you develop your own bizarre-o personality.

I just like movies, not one particular kind or genre. In fact, movies that are harder to classify I like more.

I try to stay friends with everybody because you might go back and work with somebody who you had a horrible experience with and it could be great the next time. You never know which way it's going to go, never say never.

All the classic bands that have been around forever, they came up gradually.

I like movies where you can come back and re-watch them and admire the cinematography 25 years later.
