Let freedom ring, unless it's on vibrate.

Directing is such alchemy, it's so easy to fail. And I've seen people who are great at their jobs because everybody has a go. Editors, DPs, actors, craft services guy, everybody wants to try it out but it is such a diffuse but necessary set of skills that you never know which one this person might lack.

Now there’s us, staking out our piece of cinematic turf (might be small but it’s ours). And the music has to fit the vision as specifically as it did for [Star Wars and The Matrix.] OUR music comes from THEIR music, this scrappled bunch. It is spare, intimate, mournful and indefatigable.

The news isn't there to tell you what happened. It's there to tell you what it wants you to hear or what it thinks you want to hear.

I think it's always important for academics to study popular culture, even if the thing they are studying is idiotic. If it's successful or made a dent in culture, then it is worthy of study to find out why.

It's very important that we start creating new content again. We can only build on nostalgia so much before we have nothing left to build on.

I think there's a possibility that comic book movies are getting a tiny bit better on the one hand because they're no longer made by executives, who are, you know, ninety-year-old bald tailors with cigars, going, 'The kids love this!'

I really love `Serenity.' I'm really proud of it and excited to see it my guys on the big screen, bringing something new to it. But `Firefly' was a different animal, something I will regret losing until the day they put me in a box, because I did have a lot of good stories I wanted to tell.

I loved teaching and I did a lot of work as a teacher's assistant in college, and my favorite experience was basically getting a laugh from a bunch of people because they had just understood something. Because I had shown them something they hadn't seen before, and it amused them. That's the combo platter. That's a perfect moment.

Every writer loves the idea of being able to go in and fix a problem and then leave without obligation. It's fun!

In TV, there's so much compromise, it does start to grate a bit. But if you're a writer or an actor, it really is the place to be.

There's a time and place for everything, and I believe it’s called 'fan fiction'.

My visions of the future are always pretty much standard issue. The rich get richer, the poor get poorer and there are flying cars.

There's some great reality TV, and I'm not bagging on it completely.

I'm well aware when they fired the starting gun I was halfway down the track, but I still ran as fast as I could for 25 years.

I think to an extent every human being needs to be redeemed somewhat or at least needs to look at themselves and say, 'I've made mistakes, I'm off course, I need to change.' Which is probably the hardest thing for a human being to do, and maybe that's why it interests me so.
