Certain remakes are great. Carpenter's The Thing is better than the original.
From Alex Winter
I'm not trying to be some kind of underground renegade.
That's kind of the weird thing that M. Night Shyamalan has sort of unleashed upon the world is this need for every movie to have these ridiculous endings.
I just like movies that somehow expose the world in a way that's different than you imagine it.
I direct a lot of TV commercials and music videos.
The thing about movies these days is that the commerce end of it is so inflated and financiers are just expecting this enormous return on their investment.
I think filmmakers want their movies to be seen.
It's hard for a hit to be bad for your career.
I get very driven by certain themes and ideas.
The film, even when we were making it in that budget range, which was really a coup - we got it made because we pitched it to the studio head, Joe Roth.
