growing-up character years
We live in a much more complicated time than when Superman was created 75 years ago. Or even when Superman The Movie was created in the 70s. There are great advances but with those come a great many complications.We felt that the character needed to grow up in that kind of environment and had to face those kinds of colossal choices that were not going to be easy. It's difficult to figure out the right path. And even if you do good there are causalities to your choices. We thought it would be compelling.
thinking goal feelings
I think that Superman is the pinnacle of the DC Universe. Our feeling always was that you need to get Superman right. That was also our goal. We didn't want to ignore that this universe exists.
character kids littles
I'd been a Superman fan since the time I was a little kid. We had great respect for the Donner movie, and Superman II with Terence Stamp as Zod but I felt it was time to bring the character into the 21st century.
guy shade today
At least you used to know 'there's the villain, there's the good guy', but today there are more shades of grey.
names ideas age
Even in our business, as is the world, we are in the age of specialisation. You see a lot of names of producers on a movie. If you have the idea, if you oversee the development, if you oversee the production, if you help package the movie, you sell the movie - you can be a producer. There's not a lot of us who do the whole gamut.
cities different chicago
Chicago's such a great city because it's got so many different brilliantly architecturally looking buildings, and you can really modify that city.
maxwell smart steve
Steve will take the part of Maxwell Smart to a whole new level, ... He will not be as bumbling, and it will be in a contemporary setting.
batman good moment successful
Scooby-Doo is an icon, just like Batman is an icon, ... We will do another at some point, I'm sure, but nothing is in the works. We have had good successful releases, but for the moment we need to give it a break.
owns point studio
The point is that the studio owns the franchise, and they can do without any of us,
control script steve usual
We're getting the script together, and there will be some of the usual characters: a Chief, 99, CONTROL and KAOS, ... The script has to be there before we want to make it, but Steve will make it funny.
play personality roles
The parts of Shaggy, Daphne, Freddie and Velma played by Linda Cardellini are all iconic and not really personality-driven, so it doesn't really matter who plays those roles, ... But it is true that Matthew nailed it.
psycho film scene
In films of terror, it's often not about being graphic. Or if there is a graphic image, it's extremely swift. Everyone talks about the shower scene in 'Psycho,' but that's the only graphic scene in the entire film.
home long video
For a long time, the film business was a single-digit business on investment return. Now, because of home video, it's a low double-digit business, and the studios want to make sure it doesn't go back into the single-digit business.
thinking wind people
People tend to think about God more when the clock starts to wind down.
