Making a movie and not directing the little moments is like drinking a soda and leaving the little slurp puddle for someone else.

I love to go to a regular movie theater, especially when the movie is a big crowd-pleaser. It's much better watching a movie with 500 people making noise than with just a dozen.

[? The new take: Although the] Transformers ... (The movie) is going to be really steeped in tradition, but it makes way for a newer line of toys.

The only thing that gets me back to directing is good scripts.

Whether in success or in failure, I'm proud of every single movie I've ever directed.

I committed to directing 'Catch Me If You Can' not because of the divorce component, but principally because Frank Abagnale did things that were the most astonishing scams I had ever heard.
