Men and machines are good at different things. People form plans and make decisions in complicated situations. We are less good at making sense of enormous amounts of data.

When you're going to try and have people talk in a room and actually reflect life as we know it and have people recognize themselves and their own street and their own house in it, well then you're aiming for the high country and it's a much bigger gamble.

At the end of the day, it's gotta be a good movie.
