Usually when you watch a film, you're just sort of biting your nails about things you could have done differently.

While it's easy to sit back and cherry pick bad visual effects and blame the industry for making movies the way they are, you're really not seeing the whole picture.

I go to the movies at least five times a week, and after a while everything becomes a blur to me.

I think sometimes when you're working consistently in film, and maybe this is just me, but you do feel quite dislocated from your audience.

Movies tend to be dislocated and non-linear in their process.

When you make a movie, you know you're making a long-form thing, so the visuals are different than for a video where it has to be more obvious or in your face, I think, a little bit.

Your mind always does worse things than people can show in a movie.

My films are always looked at strangely, and there is nothing I can do about it.

The parts of a film should be in proportion to the whole, and a long film pasted together out of quick little scenes makes me dizzy.

Making movies is about creating illusions, and they can be subtle illusions, but it's all a cumulative effect as you make these little tweaks. It kinda adds up to something, hopefully.
