became certain circle defined life number stretch time
I've always been someone with a small circle of friends. Each stretch of my life has been defined by one person who was just my person. We became inseparable for a certain number of years, and that time was our season, just the two of us making our way through life.
filmmaker films larger slightly solve time
I was going to go and do what I should do as a filmmaker and make slightly larger films each time, learn my craft, make mistakes and solve them.
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.
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.
challenge love time traveling
I love the challenge of having one character who is traveling back in time to find someone. Nowadays, the only way we think to find someone is on Facebook.
few people public subjected
The public scrutiny element they don't teach you in film school. So few people are ever subjected to it.
scary skeletons stuff
There's scary stuff in 'Raiders of the Lost Ark.' There's some really nasty skeletons and dead bodies.
human maybe
There's something really interesting about how human beings just want to see animals tear each other apart, maybe because we can't do it.
human
There's something about dinosaurs that should be very humbling to human beings.
cool corner cult upgrade whatever
We live in a cult of the upgrade right now. There's always something around the corner that will make whatever you think is cool right now feel obsolete.
You get 12 years of childhood, give or take.
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.
attempted people rarely romantic
There's no shame in being romantic at all. I think people want to feel that sense of romance, which is rarely even attempted anymore.
character characters female male
There's no need for a female character that does things like a male character; that's not what makes interesting female characters in my view.
