I always loved samurai movies, and I wanted to incorporate that whole level of elegance and just the code of the samurai to 'Conan.'

I think there's a fundamental distinction between character-driven movies that are just really lovely slice-of-life movies and character-driven movies that you remember 20 or 30 years later; the...

When I was a kid, I was into psychological thrillers. When I was 12, my favorite movie was 'Thirteen.' I just really liked movies that showed an extreme range in acting. That's what made me want to...

Thirty-five percent of all my dates were at the movies from 2013 to 2014.

I have noticed a growth in demand from audiences to include more women of colour and women to be cast as significant roles in TV shows and movies.

Of all my movies, I feel that 'Krishna Gopalakrishna' remains one of my best works though it could not be called a box office success. I maintain that it was far ahead of its time.

I don't think movies are the reason why this violence exists, I think it's going to happen whether movies are there or not.

I've done many different movies in many different contexts.

Traitors' was awesome. It was so intense.

'Halloween' is such a classic, and I think that was one of the first horror movies I've ever watched.

I guess the dream would be to do movies, and keep people updated with my videos.

As much as movies are about the words that you're saying, they're also about what's not said, the silent moments.

There are some movies that I would like to forget, for the rest of my life. But even those movies teach me things.

I remember when I was younger, and in school, our teachers showed us films of plastic in the ocean, starving polar bears and so on. I cried through all the movies. My classmates were concerned when...

I've made movies that cost less than one car chase.

I was a huge horror fan, especially in my teenage years. Back then, there were a lot of Italian horror movies - some zombie, some just really strange movies that made no sense. I was really into shock...

It's only in relatively recent years that Hollywood became the playground of multinational corporations which regard movies and TV shows as a minor irritant to their overall activity.

The funny thing about commercials to me is that many of them now don't even mention the product until the very end. You don't really know what the commercial is all about. They're kind of like little...

I just want to do some movies that my children and my grandchildren would be proud of. That's my yardstick.

I don't consciously aim at shooting movies in different locations but if my films feature never-seen-before locations, then why not.

My grandparents lived in Hollywood, and I was surrounded by the romanticism of movies ever since I was a child.

That's the way this business works: if your movies do well at the box office, you will be offered more movies. It doesn't matter if you're a nice guy or you're a prick. If your movies do well, there's...

You'll see a lot more blood in 'Saw' movies or something like that than you will in either of the 'Last House' movies. I kind of think it owes more to 'The Virgin Spring' which is the original source...

I don't get jobs in films by auditioning. I'm not blonde. You can't place me in movies the way you can with certain actors. It's very difficult for my agents.

When I started making movies, I was pretty young, and at the time I felt like there needed to be more confrontation in cinema - or I needed to make something more disruptive - so in the beginning,...

I have kind of a funny relationship with movies. I don't have to see the whole movie to get an impression of it or to let it have an influence on me.

It's not like I'm the first man ever to do this, y'know? You gotta go back to Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby and Sammy Davis Jr. Those are people who've done music well and movies well, and y'know, Frank...

I love the movies, and when I go to see a movie that's been made from one of my books, I know that it isn't going to be exactly like my novel because a lot of other people have interpreted it. But I...

Film spectators are quiet vampires.

I loved all of the 'Zenon' movies. Those were my jam mostly because of the fashion. I loved something about the space buns and the weird neon colors. I couldn't just wear that in real life because...
