ufo
I've always been interested in UFOs.
saving-private-ryan three proud
There are three movies that I am exceptionally proud of in my life, and I rarely commit to a list of films that I like, that I've made... but these are the three films that I was passionately connected to. The first was 'ET,' the second 'Schindler's List,' and third is 'Saving Private Ryan'.
crazy wild-imagination fiction
I just had a crazy, wild imagination all my life, and science fiction is the greatest outlet for me.
conflict sensitivity palestinian
I am an American Jew and aware of the sensitivities involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
creating minorities faster
I had a great time creating the future on 'Minority Report,' and it's a future that is coming true faster than any of us thought it would.
kids knows versions
A lot of kids only know 'E.T.' from the digitally-enhanced version.
going-out substitutes feels
I feel there is no substitute for going out to the movies. There is nothing like it.
dream fall sky
I dream for a living. Once a month the sky falls on my head, I come to, and I see another movie I want to make.
children schedules want
I don't really have a schedule of when I want to show my children my movies.
games play action
I don't play online games. 'Warcraft,' I've played that, but I mainly play action games.
television littles fiction
Because television doesn't offer the kind of budget that a movie offers, you've got to be a little more careful where you spend the money to put the fiction in science.
war military air
Before statehood was achieved, Syria and Egypt had their tanks and military equipment lined up to invade Tel Aviv and destroy it; but the Israelis scrambled together an air force, some of it from old Second World War Messerschmidts, and the invasion was halted.
father emotional choices
Even if I'd had a really happy relationship with my father and there was no emotional hiatus for a decade and a half, I probably would still have made some of the same choices for movies that I've made.
ideas television tables
Because of how much movies cost, it's dangerous to be experimental on one film after the other. But we can experiment with television. We can do things that are fringe and bring ideas to the table that are offbeat and original.
