Same thing, like my commercials are often times really funny because I tend to find 30 seconds is a really good amount of time to tell a joke.

That's kind of the weird thing that M. Night Shyamalan has sort of unleashed upon the world is this need for every movie to have these ridiculous endings.

I'm a huge Solaris fan. It's one of the greatest movies of all time and I don't see why anyone should remake it.

I think movies are good for getting into dream states or exploring weird alternate states of thinking.

I direct a lot of TV commercials and music videos.

I mean, there are certain Spielberg movies I really like, but clearly they're very different directors and I much prefer Kubrick to Spielberg.

The film, even when we were making it in that budget range, which was really a coup - we got it made because we pitched it to the studio head, Joe Roth.

Certain remakes are great. Carpenter's The Thing is better than the original.

I'm really influenced by so many different things.

Keanu and I jokingly, cause he's still a really close friend of mine, say maybe when we're both 40 we'll do one.

And it really doesn't matter if you want to make mainstream movies - I think; make the movies you want to make.
