The key to making good movies is to pay attention to the transition between scenes.
Movies are a fad. Audiences really want to see live actors on a stage.
The only thing I can’t do is hear. I can drive, I have a life with four kids, I work on TV, I do movies, so the deafness question, is it that they want to know because, what? Not sure.
Doing voices in animated movies has been one of my dreams. You get to go and act, and you don’t have to put on makeup.
Everyone is using the Internet for almost everything – trailers, ads, movies, and short films. This is the only thing that will reach everybody in the world.
I’ve got a short attention span, so it makes sense that I like movies because, for the most part, they immerse you in lots of action.
I really don’t have any solutions and I don’t like movies that do.
A good deal of my effort goes into the selection of films, because these things cannot be just predicted, so I am careful about the movies I finally do. Next year, too, I will have four or five films where I play different roles.
I hate horror movies. I get really scared, and I don’t want to be scared. I don’t know why, but I’m one of those people who gets frightened and can’t go to sleep.
Look, I’ve done some low-budget movies and I’ve done some big-budget movies, and the big-budget movies were always kind of disorganized.
There’s a lot of great movies that have won the Academy Award, and a lot of great movies that haven’t. You just do the best you can.
Where I live, nobody who’s fourteen is having sex and doing major drugs. And I think if you see it in the movies, you may be influenced by it. I think it’s so important to preserve your innocence.
After making several tragic movies in a row, I was looking to do a comedy, and one without cynicism.
I read, I watch a lot of movies, I’m constantly living, so I’m constantly having more to say.
I’m super-into sappy movies like ‘La La Land’ and ‘Midnight in Paris.’
It used to be the case that studio executives like Robert Evans, Darryl Zanuck, and David Selznick would put aside money for what they wanted to be great movies regardless of whether they would perform well with the box office.
Horror is so often a ‘thinkless’ genre, sort of considered popcorn movies, but you really put a lot of, not just heart and soul, but a lot of physical energy into it.
How do we encourage a lot more girls to pursue science, technology, and engineering careers? By casting droves of women in STEM jobs today in movies and on TV.
I hate dream sequences in movies and T.V. shows generally for their heavy-handed symbolism and storytelling tediousness.
I want people to know me through the movies I do. I want to be judged on that. If you start becoming famous for your personal life, that’s when your career goes away.
In cartoons, in movies, time passes differently. There are flashbacks and flashfowards.
Watching movies is my one distraction.
I kept watching all the different ‘Child’s Play’ sagas, right? Then all of a sudden I decided, ‘He’s short, I’m short. What a better concept?’ It fits. If I can’t make the song, why make the movies?
My older sister showed me ‘Hellraiser’ when I was, like, 4, and ‘Friday the 13th.’ She kind of scarred me, but I like watching scary movies with people because you’re together in this scary situation. It makes all that more fun.
I had done some flimflam movies, but I didn’t understand what being an actor meant anymore.
