“Not to be narcissistic, but I truly believe in order to make yourself better, you should see what you did before and what was good about that and what wasn't - same way a football team plays a game and then they go back and watch film.” WayShouldBelievePlayFilmOrderGamesWatchesTeamFootballNarcissisticFootball Team Author:Jake Owen

“I never thought of what I was doing as a way to sell the NFL. I was making movies about a sport that I loved, about players and coaches that I respected.

“Personally I don't think there's any real intrinsic difference between comic books, movies, theatre, novels. I know there's sure to be some differences of some sorts. I've worked on novels, films, and video games, and in an adaptation, I guess one of the issues is that I have to be in love with the thing I'm adapting before I do it. So that can cause a problem. You can be too scared of it. You could be too reverential. But at the same time you want to try to capture this thing that you're obsessed by. You're fixated for a reason. What's the reason? You try to get ahold of it.” ThinkingKnowsWantTryingBookRealReasonProblemFilmGamesCausesDifferencesNovelIssuesScaredTheatreVideoComicObsessedCaptureComic BookAdaptationAdaptingMovie Theatre Author:Alex Garland
“I think television is moving more into movies, particularly with serialization and almost cinematic proportions and expectations. A show like 'Game of Thrones' is a perfect example of that, or even a show like 'The Wire,' which isn't all about instant gratification it's about inviting someone into the long experience of television the way you'd be invited into a theater for two hours. So I think in that way, and the quality of writing in television is probably much better than most film writing.” ThinkingWayWritingLongTwoShowsFilmMovingGamesHoursPerfectQualityExampleTelevisionExpectationsTheaterInstantProportionThronesInvitedGratificationInvitingCinematicInstant GratificationFilm Writing Author:Bryan Singer

“Making a film, you do need stamina, whether you're doing fight scenes or not. It's important to keep fit.
