masculine
I thought Charlize Theron was awesome in 'Mad Max,' and that was a very masculine kind of hero.
bit human tick whatever
I feel like, whatever movie I was making, there would always be moments of human intimacy and insight into a little bit of what makes us tick as people.
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.
directing filmmakers instead joking kids mom suddenly
I was joking with my mom that all Jewish mothers now will want their kids to be filmmakers instead of doctors. Because you can make one film, and suddenly you're directing a 'Jurassic Park' movie.
dinosaurs kids love stage
Kids go through a stage where they love dinosaurs - boy or girl.
clear funny great guy johnson
Jake Johnson wanted to make clear that he was the great American actor, not just the funny guy on 'New Girl.'
bay guy largest owned room selection worked
In high school, I worked at The Video Room in Oakland, California. It had the largest selection of laser discs in the Bay Area. One guy owned all of them.
david ford john lean spielberg steven watch
I like how you can go back and watch David Lean and John Ford and see the influence that had on Steven Spielberg, especially David Lean, in the camerawork, and yet, you don't watch any Spielberg movie and think of David Lean. Once you're looking for it, you see it all, but it's not in your face.
goes home northwest san starts
I'm from Oakland and San Francisco, so I feel like the Pacific Northwest starts there and goes north - so, it's home to me.
I prefer to be scared in a way that a 12-year-old would want to be.
exist humans scale
Intimacy between humans need not be relegated to independent film. Real characters can exist no matter what the scale of a movie is.
build coalition dinosaurs hope interested people
If I can build a coalition of people who are interested in what I have to say and what I'm thinking, I hope they'll come with me if I want to go tell a story that doesn't have dinosaurs in it - which I plan to do.
filmmakers films people relationship
I feel like, on a more macro scale, there's started to be a relationship between filmmakers and people who watch their films - you know, on Twitter and on the Internet.
films good shot slick technology
I feel a lot of films that are shot digitally, even low-budget independent films, they look super slick now. Because the technology is so good that they look too good.
