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.
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.
good
I think, if you can, it's OK to put something in a movie because it makes you feel good.
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.
adventures fit funny movies scary specific takes
'Jurassic Park' movies don't fit into a specific genre. They're sci-fi adventures that also have to be funny, emotional, and scary as hell. That takes a lot of construction, but it can't feel designed.
directors
'Jurassic Park' is like 'Star Wars.' Different directors can give a different taste to each movie.
'Jurassic Park' doesn't belong to America; it belongs to the whole world.
