Movies are just ridiculously expensive.

Movies are the shadiest business in the world.

Unfortunately, overall, movies are a conglomerate. People buy and sell people in this business, which can get really ugly.

Movie studios are owned by giant corporations. They care about money; they don't care about movies.

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.

The movie business is a big gamble.

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.

Movies are getting more and more expensive to distribute. You need a lot of money to get people into theaters.

It's too expensive, that's the thing nobody wants to talk about. It is too expensive to make movies. That's not true, it is too expensive to market movies. Making movies is not.
