The reality is that each movie has got to be seen in its own light.

We'd finished shooting the film by then. The film is the film.
love movies rated stuck switch
The only problem is I can't get into PG-13 Land. I just get stuck in R rated movies, which they would love us to make PG-13 movies but I never get there. But I think that you've got to make them different. You've got to switch them up.

We really haven't marketed to that group. I'm not sure why. We market to urban audiences.

american-producer good hard night predator saturday time
I had a hard time making Predator 2. The first movie was so good at what it was and Predator 3 is just like a Saturday Night Live sketch.
adam batman book brought comic george great hero legendary life reinvented superman tim time wonder
It's just a great, legendary comic book hero and it's one that has never been kind of been brought back to life after Lynda Carter. I mean, it's a reinvention. When Tim Burton reinvented Batman after Adam West, and when Donner reinvented Superman after George Reeves, it's time to do that with Wonder Woman.

arnold deliver movies shoot
Well, I haven't really been able to shoot in California for a while. Little movies yeah, but the big movies we can't shoot there. It's just a shame that Arnold Schwarzenegger can't deliver on this level.

The only time I use women in films is when they're naked or dead.

I really was very impressed with DMX during the whole experience on 'Romeo Must Die.' I like working with him. I liked him. And I was very impressed with the reaction of the audience when he was in the picture.
