To be honest, I don't enjoy watching movies much when I'm working. They tend to fall apart on me a bit.

• The only job that was ever of interest to me other than filmmaking is architecture.
• I'm taking a bit of a wait-and-see attitude towards 3D.
• I have been interested in dreams, really since I was a kid. I have always been fascinated by the idea that your mind, when you are asleep, can create a world in a dream and you are perceiving it as though it really existed.
• I've been interested in dreams since I as a kid and I've wanted to do a film about them for a long time.
• But I have been interested in dreams, really since I was a kid. I have always been fascinated by the idea that your mind, when you are asleep, can create a world in a dream and you are perceiving it as though it really existed.
• But in the back of my mind I've always looked to the biggest-scale Hollywood movies. Because to me the most satisfying experience is of watching a movie, if it's done really well. And so that aspiration is always it for me, if I have the opportunity to do it.
• Yeah, it's odd when you look back at your own work. Some filmmakers don't look back at their work at all. I look at my work a lot, actually. I feel like I learned something while looking at stuff I've done in terms of what I'm going to do in the future, mistakes I've made and things at work or what have you.
• We all wake up in the morning wanting to live our lives the way we know we should. But we usually don't, in small ways. That's what makes a character like Batman so fascinating. He plays out our conflicts on a much larger scale.
• I think there's a vague sense out there that movies are becoming more and more unreal. I know I've felt it.
• I've always been a movie guy, movies have been my thing. I love movies, all kinds of movies.
