In the past I've made movies that were pretty universally liked. You can't really hate them. You can discard them, but you can't really hate them.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every time you do something, people are going to like it, people are going to hate it. You tend to make the movies on the basis you are making them for the people who are going to like them and not worrying too much about people who don't like them.
I've discovered I can't make a film about people I dislike.
I have a particular dislike for children's films. I'm way past the novelty aspect.
I'm telling you, every film I've ever made has been hated by the U.K. critics.
As a viewer, I never want any movie ruined for me, no matter what the genre is.
I'd rather make an interesting film that gets people talking, that maybe some people hate, than make the kind of 'entertaining' film that everyone feels ambivalent about.
You ought to love what you're doing because, especially in a movie, over time you really will start to hate it.
When people approach me about my films it is usually to tell me how much they hate them.
People feel the worst film I made was 'Jack.' But to this day, when I get checks from old movies I've made, 'Jack' is one of the biggest ones. No one knows that. If people hate the movie, they hate the movie. I just wanted to work with Robin Williams.
If you can't stop somebody from working and making movies that you hate, what's the next best thing? Destroy them personally.
