I Like Making Movies.

It's Part Of The Film-making Business And Also Part Of The Creative Process - Putting All The Pieces Together To Make A Movie, So That They All Line Up. Sometimes It Looks Like You Have A Lot Of Projects Lined Up, But Some Of Them Are In Different Stages.

I'd Seen Too Many Shrines In South Central And Thought It Was Worth Asking Where The First Bullet Came From That Started All This Violence.

We're Very Good Friends, We Have A Very Honest Relationship. He Keeps Me Honest, I Keep Him Honest. He's An Incredible Actor And When You Have An Actor Like Denzel Action Becomes Drama.

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.

The Outsider Hero Is Hero Riding Into Town, He's The Gunslinger, Shame - The Same Thing, He Didn't Want To Do It Anymore, He Wanted To Live A Different Life But Part Of Who You Are Sort Of Haunts You And You Can't Run Away From Evil And If You Have Special Skills, And Most People Are Mistreated, Which Is Unfortunately In Our World, We Always Need An Equalizer, That Type Of Character To Come To Our Rescue.
