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
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
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
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
The accidents are things that audiences always remember most, I've found on my own movies. The things that they like the most are the things that were just by accident. So you have to create a situation where nothing but accidents can happen the entire time.
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
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
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
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
Changing the game is a mindset.
Robert Rodriguez
Tell everyone that your mistakes are art. You can get away with a lot that way.
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
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
Everything I've done has always been my own made up world with its own rules and its own made up stories.
Robert Rodriguez
Television series always have a lot of characters because you want people to identify with someone on the show, who will be your eyes.
Robert Rodriguez
Yeah, I was always a big fan of noir.
Robert Rodriguez
A lot of people who watch DVDs are people who are interested in, if not moviemaking, then creativity in general.
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
I'm all about freedom in art. I'm from Texas, so when someone tells you which way to ride your horse, you think 'I'll just go to a different ranch. You guys are riding it backwards anyway.
