James suddenly seemed to have his guitar *all* the time and at the drop of a hat...or even with no hat, he'd play.
My reasons were completely personal, ... My wife is an architect; I have two kids under 3. There may be a time when I am willing to uproot them, but this is not it.
You learn something every time you make a mistake.
The problem for me is that 'Watchmen,' one of the great comics of all time, is a look at superheroes that has gone beyond the concept of or necessity for superheroes.
My absolute favorite part of Comic-Con is seeing, like, a 'Mass Effect' guy hanging out with a 'Sailor Moon,' and they're just having a great time.
Writers are completely out of touch with reality. Writers are a crazy person. We create conflict - for a living. We do this all the time, sometimes on a weekly basis; we create horrible, incredible circumstances and then figure a way out of them. That's what we do.
I spent a ton of time alone. I was raised by a feminist; I had a terrifying father and oppressively scary and mean brothers. We had a farm. The rule was between breakfast and lunch you weren't allowed to make a sound.
I never write anything without humor, just because I like humor, but at the same time, it is a way for anything fantastical to become relatable.
I loved working with 'The Avengers' cast and we had a great time, but it was a job, and they had other commitments during that job, so they would go off and do other things.
'The Sixth Sense' is fine the second time around, but honestly, the first time around, it's dazzling.
I'm not big on regret; I don't spend a lot of time on it.
I was a little bit ashamed of American TV because I thought, 'None of the shows my father works on are as funny as my father.'
I thought 'this is too exciting to let go of.'
I respect television in a way that some people who came out of film might not.
