I know when something is done and when it isn't. There's been times working on movies when they [moviemakers] lock in a release date and so you're stuck to that schedule. But sometimes you're still editing and you feel like you're not really done, but they're sort of releasing the movie anyway - that's kind of depressing.

I'm psychotically involved in every tiny little aspect. That's just the way I've been about everything my whole life.

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

[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.

Everybody knows that Black Sabbath started everything and almost every single thing that people are playing today has already been done by Black Sabbath. They wrote every single good riff... ever.

Every time I make a movie I have too many characters and too many locations.

Movies in general are more generic. If something sells just make more. That's Hollywood.
