More quotes by Ridley Scott
I love different themes, different venues, different movies. I love to jump about and tackle different subjects. I have no intellectual master plan.
Ridley Scott
Never be put off by anything because failure teaches you something.
Ridley Scott
You step forward and make it real for a start. You choose a sensible moment in history. Funnily enough, England was bankrupt and the moment is the death of Richard The Lionheart... Richard takes an arrow in the neck collecting a small debt from a small castle on his way home from the Crusades because he's penniless.
Ridley Scott
Yeah, we're working on Blade Runner 2 right now - that will happen sooner or later.
Ridley Scott
Nowadays, everything's evolved into superheroes and it's boring. If I see one more superhero movie I'm going to shoot myself.
Ridley Scott
I spend a lot of my time just developing material or the company does. That material can come from a book, can come from a newspaper, can come from a discussion and sometimes it can come from a script that got passed over and is floating around.
Ridley Scott
I think there's nothing worse than inertia. You can inert and study your navel and gradually you'll fall off the chair. I think the key is to keep flying.
Ridley Scott
I was always amazed about how much I could finally squeeze into a thirty second commercial.
Ridley Scott
There's a little thing on your shoulder called intuition and it whispers in your ear. Everyone has that, there is a voice telling you to do something. Most people ignore it - but you must listen to it. I do it every day, all day.
Ridley Scott
Audiences are less intrigued, honestly, by battle. They're more intrigued by human relations. If you're making a film about the trappings of the period, and you're forgetting that human relationships are the most engaging part of the storytelling process, then you're in trouble.
Ridley Scott
But Gladiator is one of my favourite adventures because I really loved going into the world. I loved creating the world to the degree where you could almost smell it.
Ridley Scott
I also love Australian movies. I love Muriel's Wedding - I've seen in six times. Baz Luhrmann's best movie is strictly ballroom... without question.
Ridley Scott
You've got to be able to know someone really well to be able to have a row and then also walk away from it and not have it matter, especially in this business. That doesn't mean to say we have many rows but I think the nearest thing to a row would be just flatly disagreeing with something .
Ridley Scott
It's everything and I always make decisions about the cast.
Ridley Scott
Everyone sniggered because I was going to do a sandal and toga movie. But I knew exactly how to do it and I know how to make Robin Hood.
Ridley Scott
I believe all of us only use one tenth of our brain. I know people who use one per cent only!
Ridley Scott
The time it would take me to write a screenplay it would take me the time to make two films. I would rather make the movies and I'm a better moviemaker than I a would be writer.
Ridley Scott
I think if I'm going to do a science fiction, I'm going to go down a new path that I want to do.
Ridley Scott
In my view, the only way to see a film remains the way the filmmaker intended: inside a large movie theater with great sound and pristine picture.
Ridley Scott
You don't really know what you're going to get until you're actually in Abbey Road. That's where I did all the music, in The Beatles' place.
