Hollywood is just a bunch of middlemen, people trying to facilitate content transfer between creators and viewers.

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

I don't think Hollywood will be the place that innovates great technology, but if people underestimate how they monetize content, they're sorely mistaken.

The way Hollywood works, you're never sure if their first thought is to make a great film and honor the material or just another business property.

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

What Hollywood truly wants is for people to be themselves. I think what it's designed for is to kind of turn people into something and just make them saleable. But what it really stands for, what it really loves, are people who are unafraid to be themselves, and as you can see, these are people who are excelling in their careers.

The business of Hollywood, if you don't have other things going on, it will eat you up and spit you out... If you take what those people and that social structure think of you - if you let it govern your life - you might as well just kill yourself.

It's nice when you're working in Hollywood and there's a movie you'd like to see that no one is making anymore. You make it yourself.

Hollywood is so fake and people need to realize that people are just people, and you, too, don't need to be born into something or have money or have whatever product someone is hawking on you.

You don't do an experimental film to become rich, so the people who are involved are involved because they enjoy the creative aspect of it.
