I really want to do a western film. It's one of my favorite movie genres of all time.

I like storytelling movies and more than that I like historical movies; and I think someday I'll definitely make a movie about the past 50 years history.

I've always wanted to do a period movie, to do something the turn of the century, and I'm really fascinated by that whole time period.

I like stories of the classic hero, of good versus evil, the ones in which the good guys wear white and the bad guys wear black... and I love a good sword fight.

I'm very conscious of trying to make something epic out of something small and ordinary.

When I go see an R-rated horror movie, I want lots of violence.

I would love to make some kind of film about the witches and the Inquisitions. That would be really fun because I don't think their stories have been told enough.

I don't really want to make a stylized film or anything too surreal.

'Star Wars' or 'The Lord of the Rings' deal with great big Joseph Campbell-style myths, good and evil.
