I think everybody involved in a movie thinks about the box office. It's the 'biz' part of showbiz.

I win my awards at the box office.

Today it's not culture; it's box office.

The box office has become global. I think that factors in to the question of how to portray different ethnicities and cultures.

People will say a movie bombed at the box office but I couldn't care less.

I was born in 1973, so I did not see 'Alien' when it was released theatrically. I saw 'Alien' when it was on Home Box Office. I think I was probably 10.
