What attracts me to Bourne's world is that is a real world, and I think I'm most comfortable there. But I come to a Bourne movie to have fun as a filmmaker, to strut my stuff, and that's part of the fun of franchise filmmaking.
My parents are not of this world. I've had to work multiple jobs, been in a position where I cannot pay off student loans.
Studio films are driven by marketing. The currency is literally money. But in the indie world, the currency is passion.
Writing studio movies is the best job in the world... it's awesome.
Stuffing is my favorite food in the world! I actually have been known to go buy stuffing and make it in the middle of summer.
Sin and forgiveness and falling and getting back up and losing the pearl of great price in the couch cushions but then finding it again, and again, and again? Those are the stumbling steps to becoming Real, the only script that's really worth following in this world or the one that's coming.
If you wish in this world to advance your merits you're bound to enhance; You must stir it and stump it, and blow your own trumpet, Or, trust me, you haven't a chance.
In the Marines, I was stunned, absolutely stunned, at everything around me, at what the world looked like.
If somebody says, 'That's Elon's mum,' which happens quite a bit, they are usually stunned; sometimes they cry. I'm flattered because, I mean, to them, he's saving the world. They just feel he's the only hope.
To succeed in the world it is not enough to be stupid, you must also be well-mannered.
If people don't like me, I insist they can vote for someone else. The only stupid thing we can do is to stay at home. I don't know a single election in the world that was changed by staying at home.
In music, which was my world before, you've got thousands and thousands of years of great ideas that have already been thought of. But the internet is basically 20 years old. So you can be way stupider and still have world-changing ideas.
One of my big pet peeves is single-use plastic bags. I think it's one of the stupidest ideas in the world.
The second you're bleaching hair more than three or four levels on a consistent basis and want it long, and then you're heat styling it and living in the world - it's just impossible. You can get it there for a moment, and then you might get a couple re-touches out of it.
Our job as directors is to really give the audience a sense that all this exists in a universe somewhere. Even if it's a slightly more stylized or comedic world than we live in, it's still really important that it has an authenticity and integrity to it.
The World Health Organization did a world health report in 2006. In the whole world about 60 countries are in dire situation in terms of having enough doctors. And many of these countries are in Sub-Saharan Africa. You know, that part of the world alone needs one million doctors.
I like movies that are specific. Movies that home in on a very specific subculture, a specific discipline, a specific world.
No, I'm not a comic book guy. I'm pretty fascinated with the subculture though and I do think that the world of comic books is such a natural transition into film.
Free nations of the world cannot allow Taiwan, a beacon of democracy, to be subdued by an authoritarian China.
I'm not really sure what social message my art carries, if any. And I don't really want it to carry one. I'm not interested in the subject matter to try to teach society anything, or to try to better our world in any way.
