I think it's very boring for a director to always do the same kind of movies.

Usually a lot of moviemaking is boring.

Most screenplays I receive are boring, and some are straight-out bad.

You can't make a movie about making movies - it's boring.

Film can be exciting, but more often, it's tedious.

Making a film is beyond exciting. It's so exciting, it's exhausting.

Film work can be very interesting, but it also can be awfully boring because who creates the film? The actors? No. It is the director. It's his piece of work.

I never see a novel as a film while I'm writing it. Mostly because novels and films are so different, and I'm such an internal novelist.

Movies are boring. It's like watching paint dry. I did a little role in a movie, and it was eight lines. I was there for three days. It's just horrible. Television is 15 hour days. Movies are 18 hour days. And it's 18 hours of doing not a thing.

As a storyteller, when you're writing a movie and when you're directing, you want to keep people entertained. That's the whole point, right? It has to be entertaining.
