I know I screwed up my 'Godzilla.'

I would love it if the whole 'Godzilla' franchise was revitalized for a new generation.

Some of the funniest people I know are not screwed up in the head.

Many years ago, I was actually hired to write the sequel to 'Independence Day.' And I wrote a sequel. And they paid me a boatload of money to go write this thing. And after I wrote it, I read it and I gave them back the money and I said, 'Look, this is an okay movie I just wrote. But it's not worthy of the sequel to 'Independence Day.'

As for 'Independence Day,' we never intended to do any films in that series beyond the first one.

Television is like speed chess, as you have no time and no money. It is like trying to play Grandmaster chess with a 20 minute timer. The rewards are great, though, as it moves faster and you get to see the finished results much quicker.
