I think movies moving forward are going to become long-form storytelling.
-
There's nothing I hate more than going to see a movie and thinking, 'That could have been an hour shorter.'
-
We never intended to be comedic directors; it was just something we fell into.
-
Our language - the way that we deal with most actors is we don't like to get very complicated because we don't want them to think too much because we find it takes them out of the moment.
-
I was a comic book nut. For real. I still have a collection in my closet.

Anthony and I are putting together a company where we won't lose our jobs based on quarterly earnings and can afford to play a longer game. That short game is what creates a glut of mediocrity in the market because people are desperate for hits, and it puts so much pressure on executives to deliver them. We will take that pressure off the artists.

Tim Miller is a very good friend of ours. We'd love to see 'Deadpool' jump into the MCU.
-
I like acting a lot, but it's not something I get out of bed for every day.
-
The feature space is a spectacle space. It's about getting people out of their houses to go to theater when we all have a lot of things in our home now that occupy our attention.
-
We made 'Pieces' in Cleveland with zero connections to the film business. Absolutely zero.
-
The template that 'Infinity War' is following is a very different, complex template because you've never seen so many characters in one film. It obviously has to be a multi-perspective film.
-
Chris Nolan went through Slamdance a year and a half after us, and he went on to direct 'The Dark Knight.' So the joke now is if you want to make superhero movies, that's where you have to go.
-
Marvel is a very streamlined studio.
-
I'm more compelled as an artist to see diversification than I am to keep watching an Anglo point of view in storytelling.
-
What we do is service a story first, and then you figure out how to pay for it later. If the narrative isn't your primary focus, then the movie is going to become diluted, and you don't have a movie that is as good as it could be, so it probably won't make as much money.

What's interesting about the fans is, fans are very fickle. They all have their own opinion.
