"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."

Movies

"It's... a hard thing for a director, to think you came up with a shot, something from your mind, and someone died while doing it. It's the worst thing you'll ever have to live with. It was very hard for me to get back on the horse again."

Mind

"I love doing big movies. It's awesome! You have all these toys. The thing I like about this movie is, like they always say, directors have the biggest train sets! Don't tell anyone, but I'd do this for free."

Love

"A lot of directors don't want the pressure of a movie the size of Pearl Harbor. But I love it. I thrive on it."

Love

"Fast cars are my only vice."

Pleasure

"Do you know what directors go through? It's just hell. Like, why do I work so hard - to think I'm only going to see this movie five times and then never see it again 'cause I'm so sick of it? What is it worth, honestly?"

Work

"I allow a lot of room for improvisation and funny stuff. I always feel planned."

Fun

"Maybe I have just a younger voice than many other directors."

Voice

"I'm at that point in my life where I definitely want to get married soon. I've got my dogs as surrogates, but I'm ready for kids."

Life

"I can be very reserved about things. My business side isn't shy. I can be like a general. But I've got a shy side. I'm also a lot deeper than people think, and a lot more sensitive. But I don't let people in too much.'"
