There will always be big companies making big movies. But making film and distribution is changing in front of our eyes. I'm not sure what the future holds for this industry.

For the most part, Hollywood is very transactional. People want to make movies and television shows.

I think what Hollywood has done for so long, is make movies for themselves.

Nothing seems to come up to your expectations. But nothing I had heard about Hollywood was enough.

We cannot escape that Hollywood is in the middle of a wave of technological change. The current angst over all the implications of new entertainment technology is nothing new.

The whole idea of doing the Hollywood thing never even occurred to me. When you grow up on the East coast, Hollywood seems like this fantasy land and you don't think that people can actually make a living there.

I think, unfortunately or fortunately, the reality of Hollywood is that if your movie makes money, they'll make another one.

Just as many people flee Hollywood as those who flock to it. Hollywood can be an acquired taste.

Hollywood is a roulette wheel. Each project dictates what's going to happen for you next, and it doesn't really matter that your project is critically acclaimed or won awards or has fans worldwide. It's a matter of how many movie tickets and DVDs and on-demand movies that you sell.

Times change; Hollywood is not the same as it was when I first entered the business. It felt to me like it was starting to narrow down and centralize itself around what would... make money.
