When I Was A Kid, I Remember The First Batman, The First Superman Comic Books When They Came Out, Thinking How Great That Was And Wouldn't It Be Great To See A Movie Like That. They Did Some Cheap Serials, But They're Not The Same As Today. But I Think Younger Audiences Would Like To See A Real Hero Also.

Westerns. A Period Gone By, The Pioneer, The Loner Operating By Himself, Without Benefit Of Society. It Usually Has Something To Do With Some Sort Of Vengeance; He Takes Care Of The Vengeance Himself, Doesn't Call The Police. Like Robin Hood. It's The Last Masculine Frontier. Romantic Myth. I Guess, Though It's Hard To Think About Anything Romantic Today. In A Western You Can Think, Jesus, There Was A Time When Man Was Alone, On Horseback, Out There Where Man Hasn't Spoiled The Land Yet.

It Takes Tremendous Discipline To Control The Influence, The Power You Have Over Other People's Lives.
