Movies are in a much longer production conversation before an actor is even involved. I always thought of actors as the last piece of the puzzle - so you're a tool.
Who said that being Latino is to be a stereotype? Characters are stereotypes when making plans or without shades. I do not believe in the picture or model established in the movies.
Some disaster movies look like you're watching someone else play video games. They're fun but it's not real.
I don't want to see the zipper in the back of the monster suit. Like everybody else who goes to the movies, I want to believe the monster is real.
Because I was a champion swimmer in Canada, they're always trying to get me in the water in movies! I've drawn the line now with this film. No more water!
I always felt that if I made a movie, it would be one movie; I didn't see how they could make 26 swimming movies.
I don't think movies can ever be too intense, but people have to understand why you're showing them the things you are showing them.
I think cinema, movies, and magic have always been closely associated. The very earliest people who made film were magicians.
When newspapers started to publish the box office scores of movies, I was horrified. Those results are totally fake because they never include the promotion budget.
Horror is so often a 'thinkless' genre, sort of considered popcorn movies, but you really put a lot of, not just heart and soul, but a lot of physical energy into it.
I've always been a follower of silent movies. I see film as a visual medium with a musical accompaniment, and dialogue is a raft that goes on with it.
All these horror movies are slasher film now. I like them, they're fun, but they wink at the audience and you're really not terrified through the movie.
My husband and I are writers, and I wish I could write faster. There are not a lot of movies made with black actors in mind.
I do have friends who make movies, but for the most part, I never really wanted to feel like I was part of an industry.
I'm not a video brat. I don't derive all my inspiration through movies. I get it from a lot of other places, too.
I never really feel wrong while making movies. I know myself, and I know that my intentions are pure and I'm on the side of righteousness.
When I started to watch some of the films I'd done, I realized I was doing movies that I might not actually want to see.
I think you'd have to literally live in a cave to not know anything about 'Twilight'. I've seen a few of the movies, but I haven't read the books.
When I was a kid going into the movies, you weren't force-fed information everywhere you looked about what the movie was going to be.
I came to 20th Century Fox to do movies, and then they started a network, and they asked me to do a show as part of their starting what became the Fox network.
The comedy community is very friendly right now. I think that's why you see all the synergy and people doing each other's movies.
