Movies are just ridiculously expensive.

God, I'd love to do a big commercial movie that made a lot of money and whose plot was interesting too.

Movies are an expensive business.

Now while the German money is over for Hollywood, I still have $80 million to make movies, and we will have two things coming up: less major movies and the price for actors will go down.

I hope to make movies that are so small they don't need to make anything to be profitable.

Maybe I'll make one movie a year, maybe two, but it's not going to be more than that because I have other priorities now.

I don't go on set with an army of people because the most expensive elements of a movie production are the plane tickets, the hotel rooms, food and gasoline. If you're willing to discover new colleagues in the place that you are, you can save a ton of money.

It is extremely difficult to get movies that cost more than $40 million to be made these days.
