- We are the movies and the movies are us.
- David Ansen on Movies
- We can now have action movies with two stars where one might be African American and one might be Asian American. One of them doesn't have to be white, and the other one doesn't have to be the ethnic sidekick. We're way over that. And I think it's happening in society, too.
- Roger Ebert on Movies
- We didn't care if we were well-liked as long as the movies were good. We served the movie - that was our master at Miramax. In our second incarnation, the movie is still the master but we're getting the same results in more subtle ways.
- Harvey Weinstein on Movies
- We have a very wide range of content, but the brand-newest movies, what's happening with those is a $30 pay-per-view option - not from Netflix but from DirecTV and others - of movies that are in the theater.
- Reed Hastings on Movies
- We were raised without movies, theater or music. We had only nature, the hills, the trees. When I got on the set of 'Manon,' I wasn't star-struck because I didn't know what a star was.
- Emmanuelle Beart on Movies
- Well, everyone likes movies when they're a little kid.
- Anthony Hopkins on Movies
- Well, getting behind the camera is something I've always wanted to get involved with. Ever since I was doing movies like 'Zathura' I was very interested in all the different jobs on set and kind of soaking all the information up like a sponge.
- Josh Hutcherson on Movies
- 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.
- Joel Silver on Movies
- Well, I think one of the main things that you have to think about when acting in the movies is to try not to make the acting show.
- James Stewart on Movies
- Well, it was actually - I brought the idea of doing a documentary to HBO back in 2000, when there were some press reports sort of were bandied about that there were going to TV movies based on some of the books that were out.
- Monica Lewinsky on Movies
- Well, look at all of these summer blockbusters. You can't help but laugh a little, because you've already seen a lot of these movies 482 times.
- Well, the thing about great fictional characters from literature, and the reason that they're constantly turned into characters in movies, is that they completely speak to what makes people human.
- Keira Knightley on Movies
- Well, Toronto, I consider to be the birthplace of my films. I've made three films and this is the third one to premiere here in the same theater on the same day at the same time - they are my audience. They're the people that I think about while I'm writing, directing, and editing. I specifically make movies for them.
- Jason Reitman on Movies
- What bugs me is that movies don't reflect how interesting and vibrant women are. We don't treasure women as they get older.
- Jill Clayburgh on Movies
- What do I geek out about? What am I? Hmmm. I love movies. I watch movies. I like big, sweeping epics, like Ed Zwick stuff: 'The Last Samurai,' 'Legends of the Fall,' 'Blood Diamond,' 'Glory.'
- Chris Evans on Movies
- What I don't like are pompous, pretentious movies.
- Peter Jackson on Movies
- What I like to do is just make good music, good movies, hopefully perform a good show full of energy and just have some fun.
- What I liked about American movies when I was a kid was that they're sort of larger than life and I think I'm still suffering from that reaction.
- Guy Ritchie on Movies
- What people adore about superhero movies is the signal quality of the Christopher Nolan films - their complete lack of irony when it comes to the portrayal of heroism and the need for heroes to confront evil.
- John Podhoretz on Movies
- When I finally got up to Industrial Light And Magic to work on the 'Star Wars' movies as a model-maker, it felt like dying and going to heaven.
- Adam Savage on Movies
- When I go into making a movie, personally, I don't try to bring other pieces of movies with me.
- Amber Heard on Movies
- When I go to movies and I love the movie, it's because it feels like it articulated something about how we're living now, and also gives me some insight into my own life. I feel actually altered after having seen it.
- Josh Radnor on Movies
- When I got depressed, I watched Bruce Lee movies. I learned everything from Bruce Lee.
- Jackie Chan on Movies
- When I make a film I'm away from home for two to three months. So I want my kids to look at my films one day and say, I love his movies, I love his choices-because he loved them.
- Kevin Costner on Movies
- When I meet gay fans out and about, they're so great to talk to - and I'm big on hugging, because I'm from the Midwest. They're just so energetic and loving. I'm proud to have those fans, and their support means a lot to me. I don't want just girls coming to my movies I want guys to come, too!
- Kellan Lutz on Movies
- When I started doing movies, every crew member was older than me.
- Elizabeth Hurley on Movies
- When I started to watch some of the films I'd done, I realized I was doing movies that I might not actually want to see.
- Heath Ledger on Movies
- When I was a boy, I always saw myself as a hero in comic books and in movies. I grew up believing this dream.
- Elvis Presley on Movies
- When I was a kid going into the movies, you weren't force-fed information everywhere you looked about what the movie was going to be.
- J. J. Abrams on Movies
- When I was a kid, I had two great guilty pleasures. One was horror movies and the other was martial arts movies.
- M. Night Shyamalan on Movies
- When I was a little boy I used to borrow my father's hat, and make a press card to stick in the hat band. That was the way reporters were always portrayed in the movies.
- Charles Kuralt on Movies
- When I was a little kid - and even still - I loved magic tricks. When I saw how movies got made - at least had a glimpse when I went on the Universal Studios tour with my grandfather, I remember feeling like this was another means by which I could do magic.
- J. J. Abrams on Movies
- When I was old enough to go to movies alone, I got to see 'Frankenstein' and 'Dracula' on the big screen. I just fell in love with them.
- George A. Romero on Movies
- When I'm shooting a movie, I'm always in an invisible theater seat. I respect the fact that people have worked hard all week and want to go to the movies on the weekend and be entertained.
- Michael Moore on Movies
- When my mother got home from work, she would take me to the movies. It was her way of getting out, and she would take me with her. I'd go home and act all the parts. It had a tremendous influence on my becoming an actor.
- When newspapers started to publish the box office scores of movies, I was horrified. Those results are totally fake because they never include the promotion budget.
- Francis Ford Coppola on Movies
- When people ask me what makes movies great, it's the material.
- Harvey Weinstein on Movies
- When they make a woman's picture, they treat it like a 'woman's picture.' In the '40s, they didn't treat Joan Crawford movies like that, but as the big movies of their year. I'm upset that there's no 'Terminator' with a woman in Arnold Schwarzenegger's role. Because that would make just as much money.
- Ellen Barkin on Movies
- When videotape came so a lot of movies that I do have a kind of afterlife in video. Things where movies that I do would come and go they still come and go but you can go rent them and see them on TV.
- Christopher Walken on Movies
- When we shoot 24, there are so many things I have to worry about, from the script to technical things to my performance, that I don't have a second to be bored or take anything for granted. We produce 24 hours of film a season, which is like making 12 movies.
- Kiefer Sutherland on Movies
- When we talk about how movies used to be made, it was over 100 years of film, literal, physical film, with emulsion, that we would expose to light and we would get pictures.
- Keanu Reeves on Movies
- When we talk about Oscars, it's almost as a symbol of excellence, and the American public and the worldwide public accept that symbol. So, a movie like 'The Artist' that costs $14 million, has to go out and compete with movies that cost $140 million. How does David deal with Goliath?
- Harvey Weinstein on Movies
- When we were doing 'Freaks and Geeks', I didn't quite understand how movies and TV worked, and I would improvise even if the camera wasn't on me. I thought I was helping the other actors by keeping them on their toes, but nobody appreciated it when I would trip them up. So I was improvising a little bit back then, but not in a productive way.
- James Franco on Movies
- When you go to the movies with your whole family, it's a different experience. For some reason, it's something that you're all doing together and you take away something special in that.
- Vin Diesel on Movies
- When you kill somebody in the movies, it matters, whereas in literature it can be allegorical.
- Barbet Schroeder on Movies
- When you make a film you usually make a film about an idea.
- Sydney Pollack on Movies
- When you see violence in movies in general, it's very quick and painless, which isn't what it's like.
- Vincent Cassel on Movies
- When you're making movies you've got to get obsessive.
- Daniel Craig on Movies
- When you're on your deathbed, you probably aren't counting the movies you've made.
- Kristen Wiig on Movies
- Whenever I think about movies, I always look at that art process as having the best of a lot of worlds. Because if you watch a great film, you have a musical element to it, not just on the scoring, but in the way that the shots are edited - that has music and rhythm and time.
- Frank Ocean on Movies
