While films are a very visual and emotional artistic medium, video games take it one step further into the realm of a unique personal experience.

With a movie, it's probably easier to sustain intensity and seriousness over the 90-minute duration. But in an open-world game it becomes exhausting, demotivating and even uninteresting for the player.

I'm done with effects movies for now. When you do a movie like 'Transformers', it can feel like you're doing three movies at once - which is tiring.

'Clash Of The Titans' is one of the biggest movies I've done; it was certainly the most effects I've worked with.

The movie feels to me like a real work of lovely art.

Once we start seeing video games that have more memorable characters, you'll see better movie adaptations.

One of the things I don't like about film is its incredible immersive quality. It's kind of bullying - it's very big, it's very flashy, it's got a lot of weight and it throws it around almost to the detriment of the rest of our culture.

Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.

That's what film can do in a way that TV and other long-form storytelling can't. It gives you this very immersive moment.
