We're always pitching ideas and being told no thank you. No offense taken, because I would so much rather be told the truth that they're not interested and be able to find the right show for that network down the line.

I'm an impatient guy and tend not to like to stay with one thing for a long time. I'll never be able to write as many scripts as I did for Felicity or Alias ever again. I'm just too impatient these days. I want to get on to the next project.

What I'm still grappling with and learning how to do is to be looking and thinking cinematically, having come from television.

Obviously with the Internet and increased access to other means of watching shows, the audience has dispersed and is all over the place and that is a challenge.

I guess the idea of not wanting to choose to direct a film, for which I've not read a script. It's a tough decision to make without seeing any pages. That's not to say that I don't have all the faith in the world in the spectacular writers.

George Lucas is the reason that we got to make this movie, you know, he was the man that created this whole galaxy, and I am incredibly grateful to him. He's an artist and he's a grown-up. And I take him at his word, and it doesn't mean I agree with everything he says, but I respect, you know, his right to his opinion.

I believe in anything that will engage the audience and make the story more effective.
