I try to make a film that's very entertaining, very funny, but also gives you something to think about. And the strongest thing I have to offer is my point of view, to get across how I see the world in hopes that it can change the way other people see the world, hopefully for the better.

I guess I have a short attention span! I'm interested in new worlds, new universes, new challenges.

I'll continue making films because I love being able to drop into other people's worlds. My goal is to be constantly learning.

The only reason you make a movie is not to make or set out to do a good or a bad movie, it's just to see what you learn for the next one.

I got into film-making because I was interested in making entertaining movies, which I felt there was a lack of.

Every time I make a film, I feel it gives me the chance to learn something new.

The best reason to make a film is that you feel passionately about it.

Adaptations are fun for me because they connect to the idea of filmmaking I had when I was a kid. I would see a movie and think: 'I'm gonna make that movie.'

In terms of tackling different subjects, I can't really think of anything I wouldn't want to try; that's the fun of it right? Each new style brings new challenges - not that you shouldn't focus on one and master it, but it takes so long to make a film, you just want to have some variety.

Because making movies is such an expensive endeavor, other media such as books and comics have long been a more feasible way to experiment with truly new ideas.
