corner limited people telling
I feel like we've found an interesting little corner of the sandbox here as far as the way we're telling sci-fi stories. I don't think it's limited to sci-fi - I think anything fantastic can co-exist with people you and I know, and not these hyper-real movie people.
cared carry dad linked maybe nicer regret relationship subtle time travel
We would go back and maybe not say that thing to our dad that we said, or maybe be a little nicer to someone who we cared about and had a relationship with when we were young. You know, they're subtle things, but we carry those with us forever. And I think that regret and time travel are intrinsically linked to me.
great obviously thrill
Obviously it's a thrill to direct a 'Jurassic Park' film, and it's a great honor.
anyone dinosaurs discovered sick since
Never since we discovered there were dinosaurs did anyone get sick of them.
best definitely kinds lose movies sight
The best of all kinds of movies are character-driven, and I definitely don't want to lose sight of why Derek and I started to write movies together in the first place.
people
There are a lot of different elements in play when you're remaking something people care about.
basis dinosaur fit park perfectly regular surrounded
We're so surrounded by so much of this marketing and just being told on a regular basis that you have to like this, you will go here, you want this. I found that to me that fit perfectly into what a theme park of dinosaur would be about.
allen movies name woody
Woody Allen movies are like Beatles songs. I can't name my favorite without you immediately naming a better one.
build earlier filmmakers films forget love stories talk time took
We've all been disappointed by new installments of the stories we love. But with all this talk of filmmakers 'ruining our childhood,' we forget that right now is someone else's childhood. This is their time. And I have to build something that can take them to the same place those earlier films took us.
almost childhood idyllic life men rest women
Where I live, in Vermont, there's this thing that women know about men, which is this disease: their childhood was so idyllic that nothing in the rest of their life can ever be satisfying. It's almost a plague.
love movies
I love big movies, and I love big moments.
I live in Vermont, and we don't have a tax incentive there, and therefore, we don't have professional crew there.
believe intimate
I like to believe that intimate moments between characters don't need to be relegated to independent films.
anyone last learned younger
I learned on film at NYU. I was probably the last generation that was analog. Anyone who was a year younger than me, it was probably all digital.
