“My favorite characters are the ones that are the most successful movies.”

“Our brand at Netflix is really focused on movies and TV shows.”

“I like to think the movies that I've picked have something worthwhile to say. Something relevant.”

“All my movies, like Revenge, are under two hours.”

“Movies always are open to being remade because times change so much, and the tempo of movies changes. I think of it like a James Bond. They can have different actors play the same role... I've had people come up to me and say, 'We want to remake 'The Jerk' with so and so.' And I say, 'Fine.' It just doesn't bother me. It's an honor actually.”

“In anything I've ever written, all the characters sound like me, which I don't think is a bad thing. It makes sense. But I had always admired filmmakers who made movies that didn't sound like them at all.”

“I aim for a lifetime full of movies.”

“Normally, I love to go to the movies and when I see a character portrayed by different actors at different ages, it kind of pops a little bit for me. It brings me out of the movie experience. Now we have the technology to cure that.”

“The movies that are made more thoughtfully or made or with more ambition often get just get drowned out by the noise.”
