“I'm totally against sequels. I've done one, and it was a mistake.”

“I'm not so much a science-fiction fan as a fan of science, and a fan of technology.”

“I'm not a big fan of 3D.”

“I'm not a politician. I'm a filmmaker.”

“Everybody is a hero in their own story.”

“In my movies, I'm not trying to be a teacher. I'm just trying to entertain.”

“I like to blow up things. I'm a big fan of disaster movies.”

“Storytelling is storytelling. You have to tell a story.”

“I really think that you have to be a little bit of a crazy person to be a director.”

“I am not a fan of the superhero movies. I think they are silly.”

“I think it's always good to have a villain who is not just one-dimensional.”

“A lot of my movies have a strong environmental message. I'm a big believer in that.”

“You have to have a certain kind of gusto to be a film director.”
