More quotes by Robert Rodriguez
I always wanted to be a stay-at-home dad making art, making movies.
Robert Rodriguez
Low budgets force you to be more creative. Sometimes, with too much money, time and equipment, you can over-think. My way, you can use your gut instinct.
Robert Rodriguez
Yeah, I was always a big fan of noir.
Robert Rodriguez
Very few people have a lot of time to dedicate to one hobby. I was fortunate to have started so young, because when you're young you have nothing but time. Hours and hours to burn up on something as silly as a movie.
Robert Rodriguez
A lot of 3D movies have so much on the screen that you almost don't know where to look.
Robert Rodriguez
I was from such a large family that when I first met my wife, I told her: 'You can go work outside of the house and I'll stay home and continue making my cartoon strips. Maybe I'll make some commercials nearby, you know I'll do anything locally, but I would love to just stay at home and raise the kids like I did when I was growing up.'
Robert Rodriguez
A lot of people who watch DVDs are people who are interested in, if not moviemaking, then creativity in general.
Robert Rodriguez
Sometimes a movie series that becomes popular can be a blessing and curse because you get known for that. People don't give you a chance, after that... I'm a big proponent of getting somebody that you always admire and giving them a chance to do something else because they can redefine themselves.
Robert Rodriguez
I try to remind people, whether you have a growth manager or a value manager, you're going to go through cycles where you think you have a village idiot.
Robert Rodriguez
A movie goes from several stages, from idea to script. As you continue shooting, you will make some adjustments. You're constantly adjusting. It's like a piece of music. You're constantly trying to make it better.
Robert Rodriguez
Don't look at all at what other people are doing. Think of what you're doing as completely fresh because if you imitate you're dead.
Robert Rodriguez
There are real issues going on in just about any movie that's got fun elements to it.
Robert Rodriguez
Changing the game is a mindset.
Robert Rodriguez
I definitely want to produce more because I have a bunch of projects that I've either written or half written and I want to continue developing them and if cant direct one right away cause I'm doing something else I will love to still see it get made.
Robert Rodriguez
If you want to be a rock star, you're not going to just walk on stage. You gotta go practice in the garage until your fingers bleed. I always say that - the same with writing and the same with filmmaking - if it's really your passion, you've just got to stick with it and do it.
Robert Rodriguez
You create superheroes to take care of problems that can't really be solved another way.
Robert Rodriguez
I realized that everything I do is fantasy, whether it is an adult movie or a kids movie.
Robert Rodriguez
Exploitation films were famous for taking an issue an exploiting it because they could move much faster than a studio could. If there was any hot topic, they would run out and make a quick movie and make a buck on it, by changing it around and using it, in some way, to give some relevance.
Robert Rodriguez
What could make my life better? Oh, if I could only find that magic bottle that lets you never have to sleep. I have so much stuff I wanna do, but... That six or seven hours you have to be in bed with your eyes closed. What a waste!
Robert Rodriguez
Really, children will support anything that is empowering to them.
