I don't read the reviews, the blogs, or anything else. Instead, I feel the audience when I show the film.

It's always good to have no expectations when you see a film. Then you can be pleasantly disappointed or surprised.

I have sort of weaned myself off of reading my own reviews, which is a constant struggle.

I do my best not to have any expectations when I go into a movie because it's not fair.

I read every review online, and I want to respond to those, but I resist the urge to do that.

I don't watch a lot of my work. I'm not really interested in seeing it after I do it. Because I came from theater, where, you know, it's impossible to actually review your work, so why would I bother under any other circumstances?

I'm a perfectionist, so everything I put out needs to be, like, 100 percent. So when it comes to releasing things on my YouTube channel, I triple-quadruple check it before I post it because this has got to be ready for the amount of people who are going to be watching, for sure.

I'm not so presumptuous to feel that they're gonna get it right away, get exactly what I have in mind. I hope that they'll enjoy looking at it at any rate, whatever it is. And that's why I started writing stories on my work.

I would be too selfish if I said everyone should see my movies more than once. To say that would mean I'm just marketing my work!

I'm going to put a lot of expectations on myself.
