I Like Making Movies.

Sometimes Violence In A Very Real Way Is Much Faster And More Impactful Because It Feels Real And You're Watching It Happen And You're Watching Your Star Do These Things, So It's Not Like He's Doing Superhero Moves.

It's Not Worth It, It's Not About Money, Especially When You're Dealing With A Culture. It Should Be About Elevating The Idea Of What We Are And Who We Are As People In The Cinema, And That Kind Of Stuff Keeps Dragging Us Back Down.

Tupac Shakur Is Something That, Of Course I Want To Make The Tupac Movie, I Love Tupac, But When That Movie Was Announced, We Didn't Even Have A Script Yet. It Was Just Being Written. People Announce Things Too Soon. If You Go To Any Filmmaker - Clint Eastwood, Oliver Stone, Martin Scorsese, Ben Affleck, Michael Mann - You Go In Their Offices And There Are Scripts Everywhere And There's About Four Or Five Of Them You Really Want To Make.

I Like The Opportunity To Make Films.

I Don't Think The Audience Goes And Thinks Of The Movie As A Piece Of Art - There Are Some Independent People Who May Go And Have A Higher Appreciation For Filmmaking. It Is A Great Art Form, But I Don't Think You Look At A Painting And A Movie With The Same Eye.
