Mystery makes movie stars! If you see someone on the cover of the weeklies all the time, why would you want to pay to see them in a movie?
The truth is, ever since I was little, I've wanted to be an actor more than I ever wanted to be a movie star.
It's hard to get movie studios to pay a lot of money for movies that don't have robots or explosions.
The issue often with films is how it works with money and trying to get a visible movie star presence in the film.
Every time I do a movie, especially an animated movie, I just seem to scream and shout and hyperventilate for money.
Just selling through a movie theater is not ever going to be a viable way to make money back on a movie anymore.
'Jaws' was the ultimate man vs. nature movie, and it was a movie that was basically three people against the elements, so that was the biggest influence on 'Frozen.'

I'm not saying I'm a writer, but I've been in movies for a long time, and I think I could write a script for a movie.
We watched a lot of Hong Kong action movies in my house when I was growing up.
It's so tough to get movies made in Ireland anymore. A whole generation of Irish filmmakers doesn't have the resources to get a movie made.
You can make movies for a select audience, but you have to market it to them. You can make movies for a select audience, but you have to market it to them.
I'd rather do movies 'cause I am better at movies, but I do shows 'cause the opportunities have come forward.
I see the tool set being the same and maybe doing virtual movies and that's fine for some stories but not for others. And maybe make all CG movies but they are already doing it.
I miss the movies. Still, I understood that my kind of movie has had its day. I thought it was over for me.
