A Good Part Of My Leadership Skills

It [moviemaking] Is About Entertaining Audiences With Great Characters And Great Stories, You Want To Make People Laugh, You Want To Make People Cry, You Want To Have Great Music That Is Memorable. You Want A Movie That, As Soon As It's Over, You Want To Watch It Again, Just Like That. That's What It Is, Whether It's Live-action, Animation, Hand Drawn, Computer, Special Effects, Puppet Animation, It Doesn't Matter. That's The Goal Of A Filmmaker.

People Have A Real Love Of Looking At Small Worlds - Something Inside Them Is Innately Attracted To That 'miniature' Realm.

Never In The History Of Cinema Has A Medium Entertained An Audience. It's What You Do With The Medium.

The Closer You Get To Reality, The Harder It Is To Make It Look Convincing To The Audience. That's Why I Tend To Make Things [films] That Are A Little Bit More Caricature.

I Think That The Entertainment Industry And The Entertainment Press Tends To Focus On Opening Weekend Box Office As A Measure Of The Success Of A Film And I Think The True Success Is Out There In People's Homes And How Much They Absolutely Love These Characters.
