I don't really analyze my stuff when I write. I write about stuff that I'm interested in, that I'm feeling at that particular time. When I stand back and look at the complete work, I might see themes that run through the whole film, but I'm not really conscious of it when I'm doing it.

I'm very careful about how I portray violence in my films. I do believe that violence, especially violent video games, are not a good thing for young kids.

I've got "Sometimers." Sometimes I remember and sometimes I forget.

I don't think I'm a total pessimist, so I think you can find hope in all my films.

I knew I was never going to play professional sport, but I loved playing and I went to all the games I could afford to.

I consider Madonna a friend, and she sure knows how to work the publicity machine. Of course, I don't have breasts. If I did have, I'd be in the number one spot over Madonna.

I've always tried to - when I've been able to - support young artists, no matter what medium.
