More quotes by Robert Rodriguez
I realized that everything I do is fantasy, whether it is an adult movie or a kids movie.
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
Yeah, I was always a big fan of noir.
Robert Rodriguez
If you're just creative, you'll always have to rely on technical people. If you're creative and technical, you're unstoppable.
Robert Rodriguez
Hollywood wants to own everything. I don't want to own anything. I don't want people just to make content, I want to empower and teach them to create content they own that they can exploit in any medium.
Robert Rodriguez
When you take technology and mix it with art, you always come up with something innovative.
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
Really, children will support anything that is empowering to them.
Robert Rodriguez
I always wanted to be a stay-at-home dad making art, making movies.
Robert Rodriguez
Everyone applauds each other's success in Hollywood because they know how tough it is, but it really comes down fundamentally to the process.
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
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
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
I get a lot done considering I spend half my day sleeping.
Robert Rodriguez
I wish I could freeze time or go back in time and watch my kids grow up all over again because it is just going by too fast.
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
I don't think anyone can be more of a predator than a human being.
Robert Rodriguez
Any time you do action and horror, you've always got to try to find a way to make it fresh for the audience, but also for yourself, and there are so many different ways to freak people out and create tension.
Robert Rodriguez
I was a cartoonist when I was at university, but I decided to go into movie making knowing that I could still draw by doing movies, design work, story boards, and such.
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.
