I make movies that audiences like, that I'd want to see. That's all.

We don't make movies for critics. I've done four movies; there's millions upon millions upon millions of people who've paid to see them. Somebody likes them. My greatest joy is to sit anonymously in a dark theater and watch it with an audience, a paying audience.

I'm done with effects movies for now. When you do a movie like 'Transformers', it can feel like you're doing three movies at once - which is tiring.

I always have a backlog of like seven movies that I want to make.

I've always tried to make movies that pull the audience out of their seats... I want audiences to be transported.

I want audiences to see me in different avatars.
