All good ideas start out as bad ideas, that's why it takes so long.
Steven Spielberg
Image
So I try to re-invent my own eye every time I tackle a new subject. But it's hard, because everybody has style. You can't help it.
Steven Spielberg
Image
The only movie that I would ever even consider retrofitting is the first ‘Jurassic Park,’ which I think would look pretty spectacular in 3D. That’s the only one of my films that I would consider doing in 3D.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I love history, so I do a lot of movies about history.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I'm very collaborative with everybody on the set.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I turned down 'Harry Potter' and 'Spider-Man,' two movies that I knew would be phenomenally successful, because I had already made movies like that before and they offered no challenge to me. I don't need my ego to be reminded.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I've discovered I've got this preoccupation with ordinary people pursued by large forces.
Steven Spielberg
Image
My filmmaking really began with technology. It began through technology, not through telling stories, because my 8mm movie camera was the way into whatever I decided to do.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I once said that CGI makes you less inventive. At the time I was bemoaning the loss of the practical stunt. If a stunt can be done practically and safely, I'd rather do it old-style.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I love to go to a regular movie theater, especially when the movie is a big crowd-pleaser. It's much better watching a movie with 500 people making noise than with just a dozen.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I still have pretty much the same fears I had as a kid. I'm not sure I'd want to give them up a lot of these insecurities fuel the movies I make.
Steven Spielberg
Image
This whole thing about reality television to me is really indicative of America saying we're not satisfied just watching television, we want to star in our own TV shows. We want you to discover us and put us in your own TV show, and we want television to be about us, finally.
Steven Spielberg
Image
All those horrible, traumatic years I spent as a kid became what I draw from creatively today.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I don't play online games. 'Warcraft,' I've played that, but I mainly play action games.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I get very, very anxious on the set. I have a thousand ideas and I don't censor myself. I wind up cutting some of them out in the editing room... I shoot [needless footage] and then don't use later on in the process.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I was a scared kid... I think I was born a nervous wreck, and I think movies were one way to find a way transferring my own private horrors to everyone else's lives. It was less of an escape and more of an exorcism.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I think every movie I've made after 'Indiana Jones,' I've tried to make every single movie as if it was made by a different director, because I'm very conscious of not wanting to impose a consistent style on subject matter that is not necessarily suited to that style. So I try to re-invent my own eye every time I tackle a new subject.

Steve Jobs was the greatest inventor since Thomas Edison. He put the world at our fingertips.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I don't make unconventional stories I don't make non-linear stories. I like linear storytelling a lot.

Desperate times require desperate measures. What Lincoln and the Lobbyist for the Amendment and the Manager of the Amendment and himself, what they did to get this passed was not illegal. It was murky, but what they did was noble and grand. How they went about it was somewhat murky. Nothing they did was really illegal.
