I've always been a big fan of Stephen King, especially in my teenage years.

It's like my second home, 'It.' And I would like to return to it, because I feel very comfortable with it, and I have an understanding of it, and I'm passionate about it.

A movie is very different when you're writing the script and you're building a story compared to what the final product is.

At the beginning when you're writing and building the beats of the story, everything that you put in there seems very essential to the story. However, when you have the movie finally edited and it's 4 four hours long, you realise that some of the events and some of the beats can be easily lifted but the essence of the story remains intact.

The love that comes from friendship is the underlying facet of a happy life.

A lot of people come work with me because I keep an open set, and people can visit. Julia Roberts used to have friends visit on 'Pretty Woman.'

I feel like I share a great relationship with my audience where they trust my judgment and choice of films and sense of comedy.

Don't solicit feedback on your product, idea or your business just for validation purposes. You want to tell the people who can help move your idea forward, but if you're just looking to your friend, co-worker, husband or wife for validation, be careful. It can stop a lot of multimillion-dollar ideas in their tracks in the beginning.
