I'm a student of the movies. I'm a student of all media. This is what I do, and I like to immerse myself in what's current and what's topical. And I find that I'm drawn to those things.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I like to make films where I learn along the way, like the audience.
I don't actually sit down and write, but I just have a lot of different ideas about films and making movies.
When I make a film, I am hoping to reinvent the genre a little bit. I just do it my way. I make my own little Quentin versions of them... I consider myself a student of cinema. It's almost like I am going for my professorship in cinema, and the day I die is the day I graduate. It is a lifelong study.
I don't come from a film background. I haven't learned anything about films or film-making. But I have a thirst to know everything about my profession. I want to learn about cinematography, about editing, about music recordings, about post-production. So when people in the know talk, I willingly listen.
I like making films about different cultures. I'm interested in things that I've never encountered before. I try to put myself in the audience's position.
I realized what interested me as a student of film was one thing and the movies that I liked were another.
I enjoy working in movies that appeal to and will be seen by many people.
I don't read anything about my movies before or after I do films, or any part of show business. I think that keeps me in a kind of place where I can do the work that I need to do.
I like doing movies that relate to people's experience.
I'm passionate about fantasy movies. I'm passionate about comic book movies. I'm passionate about superheroes. And movies about vengeance. And all of that - the stuff that I grew up reading.
