I love all kinds of movies. I'd especially like to make some, you know, violent crime drama.
There are so many projects that don't happen, just sometimes they don't get announced, so no one ever knows about them and you don't have to talk about them.
Josh Brolin is an actor that I really, really like; he's fantastic. I worked with him once; he's a really great actor.
NC-17 means that you get it in like 3 theaters. They won't run the spots on MTV, won't run the advertising. It's the kiss of death so there was really no other choice.
Everybody knows that Black Sabbath started everything and almost every single thing that people are playing today has already been done by Black Sabbath. They wrote every single good riff... ever.
The funny thing is, I'm so used to not caring what anyone says, good or bad, that unfortunately even when people say good things I wish it made me feel good, but it doesn't.
Things like that become a blur - shot at some soundstage, somewhere - that's as much as I can remember.
The hardest part was convincing people that I was serious. The people were like 'you want to do this again'?
I wanted it to be like a high quality, drive-in movie.
Who is this irresistible creature who has an insatiable love for the dead?
I am like the Jack Nicholson of the Kings - every single game. If there was a game tonight I wouldn't be here. I used to play hockey. That was my original thing. My first thing, I wanted to play professional hockey
I never made movies that had any of my music. I haven't crossed them over that much.
I'd always want to decorate my bedroom. I needed visuals and to be stimulated by things. I'm still like that. It's the way I see the world.
I like movies where you can come back and re-watch them and admire the cinematography 25 years later.
