good
I think, if you can, it's OK to put something in a movie because it makes you feel good.
bad good wants
Nobody wants to make a bad 'Flight of the Navigator' remake. There's just no interest. We're going to do it if it's good.
bad good human lives predators saved took
There's no such thing as good or bad dinosaurs. There are predators and prey. The T-Rex in 'Jurassic Park' took human lives and saved them. No one interpreted her as good or bad.
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.
articles call certain fad filmmakers given good massive movies original result
I read certain articles about how all of the new filmmakers are immediately being given massive tentpoles, and there's a lot of original movies that we have now lost as a result of this. I don't want to call it a fad because I think it's a good thing. I think the movies are better as a result.
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.
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.
allen movies name woody
Woody Allen movies are like Beatles songs. I can't name my favorite without you immediately naming a better one.
people
There are a lot of different elements in play when you're remaking something people care about.
release tricky
Marketing for a film is tricky because you release stuff without context.
bit
I tell you, man, I'm every bit as a 'Star Wars' fan as anyone else.
animators best movement quite recognize
I think living things can recognize the movement of other living things, and all the best animators in the world can't quite capture that something.
dynamic filmmaking might
'Jurassic Park' was able to get away with big, dynamic filmmaking that might be out of place in another kind of story.
