Film director quotes
" To play it safe is not to play. "

Robert Altman
" Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen. "

Robert Bresson
" Historically, the claim of consensus has been the first refuge of scoundrels; it is a way to avoid debate by claiming that the matter is already settled. "

Michael Crichton
" The belief that there are other life forms in the universe is a matter of faith. There is not a single shred of evidence for any other life forms, and in forty years of searching, none has been discovered. There is absolutely no evidentiary reason to maintain this belief. "

Michael Crichton
" Whenever you hear the consensus of scientists agrees on something or other, reach for your wallet, because you're being had. "

Michael Crichton
" I am certain there is too much certainty in the world. "

Michael Crichton
" Women need a reason to have sex. Men just need a place. "

Billy Crystal
" Bugs and Daffy work at a movie studio. Daffy quits because he's tired of Bugs getting all the favorable treatment. "

Joe Dante
" Daffy, of course, wants to go on the journey with him but the studio decides they want Daffy back, so Bugs and a young studio executive heroine have to go out and try to bring him back. "

Joe Dante
" I don't know how influential they've been, but they definitely were part of the postmodern trend. I think that started with The Howling where we really wanted to make a picture that was not another movie where people had to read in a library to find out what a werewolf was. "

Joe Dante
" I don't think you can ever be ahead of your time with cynicism about that subject. No, I don't think it was ahead of its time. I think it was very much a product of its time. "

Joe Dante
" That led me into the area of doing a movie about sequels and a movie that was a parody of the first picture instead of just a sequel to it. "

Joe Dante
" The dynamic is extremely similar to Gremlins and the hero is very similar, plus the small town atmosphere. It really is in a way the third Gremlins movie. "

Joe Dante
" The puppet-like qualities they had, we just sort of adapted to that. In the first film, they were originally just going to be little horrific creatures and then as we worked with them, we saw how funny they could be and how satiric. "

Joe Dante
" There was always an outsider quality to him. I think he must have felt that way somewhat, because his family was unusual and his name was unusual. "
