Doesn't anybody ever want to talk about anything else besides 'Star Trek?' There were 79 episodes of the series; there were 55 different writers. I was only one of them.
I'm a control freak, so that's why I became a director.
I love when you take bizarre, non-human things and somehow make them human or accessible. I think that's why I like the practical effects. You can look at a creature and still see vulnerability or the character behind the creature. To get character behind CG creatures, that's so few and far between.
It is a miracle that anything gets made. It's not for the faint of heart, at all. You could so easily get really depressed or really down about the whole thing, but you just don't.
I would not be as married to locations and ideas, when I show up in the city that I'm actually going to shoot it in. You really have to roll with it. That perfect thing you have in your head just isn't going to be there sometimes, and you have to figure out what you're going to do, if you can't find it.
Every time I sit down with him, I know why he is who he is, and that's really cool. It's a great feeling. It sucks because I'm so not an ass-kisser, but he's George Lucas.
I graduated from high school with the art award and I had made a ton of short films, but it was before DVDs with director commentary.
I want our people to beware that no matter how good the promise is - it is not to be carried out. The only thing I say again that will make America safe is to: Let the Black man and woman go into a state or territory of our own, and help us in that territory for the next 20 to 25 years until we are able to go for self. This will solve the problem between Black and White. And Allah (God) promises that America will get an extension of time and the Wrath of God will be turned aside from this nation.
The rose does best as a rose. Lilies make the best lilies. And look! You - the best you around!
I think people start rumors because it creates interest and it makes people look at things and become more interested in what they're looking at.
You almost have to force yourself to stay in a vacuum to become different - if you really want to be different.
