I'm the last person to tell my friends to go see something I'm in. I could care less if friends of mine never saw anything I'm in.

The Internet is allowing us to get back to what's really more natural, which is that storytelling is a shared thing. It's our natural way to be communal.

When you believe that you can do something that's when you can do it.

If the goal is to get the best artists, actors, and filmmakers in the world to create the best movies, Hollywood does a decent job. And I think no one would disagree with me that it also makes a ton of bad movies and employs a bunch of hacks.
