They say your childhood influences your tastes and interests, or your approach if you're an artist. So what you create, whatever you saw, whatever your childhood was like - it influences how you're going to end up.

More quotes by Brett Ratner
'Vacation' means titillating my taste buds.
Brett Ratner
I'm definitely not a nerd.
Brett Ratner
My mom had me when she was 16, and I was an only child, which is probably why I received a lot of love and didn't miss that my father wasn't around.
Brett Ratner
I'm trying to be a little bit more mature about my choices and think about what I want to direct next, instead of just jumping into a movie 'cause I want to do it.
Brett Ratner
I went to a public high school and most of the comedy was coming from the black kids and the Asian kids and the Hispanic kids. And, the coolest kids to me where always the black kids. They were always fashion forward and they always dressed the coolest. They were always the best dancers, and just the coolest people.
Brett Ratner
Everyone who knows me knows that I don't have a prejudiced bone in my body.
Brett Ratner
I want people to see my movies. My talent, my sensibilities are what people want to see in the movies... While I have the talent to make the kind of movies people want to see I want to continue to do that, keep making big pictures and make what I love. I’m really just making the films I want to see. There’s not a strategy.
Brett Ratner
People can criticise all day long, I think I've proven myself, I think I deliver. And I agree, box office does not mean a movie's good, but I feel like I'm making good movies and I'm delivering in box office.
Brett Ratner
I've watched 'Being There' over 50 times, and every time I watch it, I love every frame. I just wish I had directed it myself.
Brett Ratner
I’m a hypochondriac. Before I go all the way, I send the girl to the doctor and check them for everything. My doctor has a test to tell if you’re going to catch something in the future even.
Brett Ratner
I'm a laugher and a lover of comedy.
Brett Ratner
I want to print books by people in the film industry.
Brett Ratner
I'm not invited to the Vanity Fair dinner where they watch the Oscars - or even the Oscars themselves - so I sit at home and watch it with a bunch of close friends.
Brett Ratner
You can't reinvent the wheel. You've got to just take the best from all the other shows and try to make it work, because there's the live show Gods that dictate if there are going to be any surprises, if there's a very commercial film that's a Best Picture. There are a lot of things that are out of my control, but I do my best.
Brett Ratner
I learn from every movie I do because on every movie, I have a different experience.
Brett Ratner
Would it be nice to win a film award one day? Yes. But the critics are going to have to wait till I'm ready. Right now, my gift is making big movies that audiences want to see.
Brett Ratner
I love that feeling of going into a packed theater.
Brett Ratner
In my public life, I'm just a guy who enjoys having fun.
Brett Ratner
There's no difference between a tacky Jew from Miami and a rap star. They both want the Cadillac and the Rolex with the diamonds.
Brett Ratner
I'm not tied to budgets. I'm tied to the story that I want to tell, and how much it's going to cost is up to whatever the economic situation of the studio is.
