I'm a horrible business person.

There's a glee in building a world that is constructed on corporate synergy and all the luxuries of our modern life, and then just tearing it apart. I enjoy that!

Intimacy between humans need not be relegated to independent film. Real characters can exist no matter what the scale of a movie is.

The movies of our particular childhood were so great that it's almost impossible to recapture that magic, especially as adults.

I don't have a PR rep. I live in Vermont.

I can say pretty confidently that I am not the right guy to do a superhero movie, just because I was not a comic book kid. I don't know that mythology, and I don't have it ingrained in me in the way that a lot of these other directors do.
