Horror movies don't exist unless you go and see them, and people always will.

I think cinema, movies, and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made film were magicians.

In Hollywood you can't even smoke in a bar anymore and yet in the movies they're always showing people smoking. I don't get it.

You have to give people permission to laugh. That's why they would always cut to the banana peel in the Laurel and Hardy movies.

I want to be commercial. I'm never the person who says, 'I don't care if people don't see my movies.' I always want people to see my movies.

In all of the movies and films you see, people are always in crisis because that's what we watch. We watch them deal with crisis and resolve it.

I've noticed that when people make vampire movies, they're always determining which of the rules they're going to stick to and which they'll abandon.

I always say I make the movies where people go, 'Hey, I never saw it, but when I finally did, I really liked it.' People saw 'Baby Driver,' though. I was pleased with that.

I could really use a corporate sponsor. People think that because you're in the movies, you're rich. I have allocated all my resources to Shambala so the animals will always be safe.

After 'Melancholia' and 'On the Road,' I wanted to do a comedy. And I did so many comedies when I was younger, but if you're not consistently in those movies, people don't always think of you for them.

There were not fifteen people in the story department and twenty-five producers and stuff. And Roger had produced 1,000 movies and directed a couple of hundred, and their comments were always very, very specific.

Before I'd written movies, I never could do big set-piece scenes with a lot of different speakers - when you've got twelve people around a dinner table talking at cross purposes. I had always been impressed by other people's ability to do that.

I always leave that for other people to decide, because some of the things I consider to be disasters are some people's favorite movies. And that's what I like so much, is that you never know. Something intrigues somebody and means nothing to somebody else.

The main problem with films is that everybody always thinks of us as a violent people. We are not. We are spiritual. And when you show someone without a sense of humor or families, which is the way you usually see Indians in movies, then they are without a spiritual base and become subhuman.
