Quotes

  • [on Cars 2 (2011)] When you got a movie where Larry the Cable Guy has the most screen time in a movie with voices of Bruce Campbell and Franco Nero...then, you've got some problems.
  • How is it that studios are so willing to back the "R" rated raunchy comedy, yet become completely neutered when it comes to slasher films? The PG-13 slasher film is the same thing as releasing a porn without sex, or a comedy without the funny parts. It makes no sense and people should not support that.
  • I think a film critic can be a good film maker, I don't see why not. I think if a critic makes a movie, they should make a movie that they themselves want to see. That's what I did. Whether they were any good is debatable, but they're what I wanted to see at the time.
