I'm just trying to tell a nice story. Whether you're a writer or a producer, all you want to do is tell a good yarn.
From Irwin Winkler
Usually when you have a sequel, the character always stays the same and that's true basically of 'Rocky III,' 'IV' and 'V.' He didn't really change.
When James Bond gets old, you get rid of him and bring a new James Bond in.
More money has been lost trying to imitate 'Rocky' than 'Rocky' has made.
When studios start telling me why a particular film project won't work, I remember 'Rocky.' I remember that the biggest success Bob Chartoff and I have had was a film nobody wanted to make.
If I'm going to produce something, it's going to be with somebody I think is special. Once I go beyond a handful of directors, like Scorsese, there are very few I want to work with.
