I'm a cruel man to myself.

Life and career kind of catches up with you.

I want to do my Blade Runner, which is like a future Berlin film, which is like a thriller, but it's much deeper characters, I think.

One of the biggest changes for me on a practical level of shooting the film was having a second unit.

I think I was brought up with games and I don't think that they're just Pac-Man or Space Invaders. I think we've moved on, I think that there are stories being told and worlds being explored.

Every film I try and make it the way I see it in my head, and it really just depends on the script and the people I'm working with or whatever interests me at that particular time.

I want to have the illegitimate child of independent film making and the budget to make it. That's my aspiration.

Sometimes there's a disjoint between what works on the page and what works with visual story telling.

I played lots of games and I was a fan of gaming, so I was always looking for new games.

Fantasy films tend to skew towards what Tolkien fantasy was, which is that the humans, the Hobbits and the cute creatures are the good guys, and everything that's ugly are the bad guys.

I think that idea of being far away from the people that you love is something that everyone can relate to.

Physical pain was easy. It would always pass in the end. All it needed was time - a ticking clock.

You will never win if you never begin.

Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger, and never to their own fear.

There's something about being in a house with an audience, and having that immediate feedback. I started acting because of that energy; it's what feeds me on stage and informs my choices.

All we try and do is make the best films we can. If you do that then hopefully the audiences will come, and they have. Everything else is gravy.

I don't like precious things; I don't spend thousands of dollars on jewellery for myself. I like going into a junk store and finding something for five dollars. That's my style.

Michael Flynn was one of Trump's top national security advisors throughout the campaign.

I almost feel like throwing Jimmy into the stove, as the priest in Kulenberg did.

That was the action figure I was playing with. I grew up having this fantasy of being a superhero, being Princess Power.
