I like that conventions want me to appear and festivals want me to come speak because they like the climate I attract. It's a good feeling.
The honest truth is no, I don't feel like I arrived. I don't feel like I'm worthy. My publicist says I'm not supposed to say that, but I don't feel I'm there yet.
Hollywood would make a holocaust an animated comedy if people would pay to see it; they don't care... they just want your money.
As a writer, Chris Columbus was a big influence. 'The Goonies' was the first movie I ever saw that kids speak normally and not imagined how kids would talk. Always a big fan of Chris Columbus' dialogue and storytelling.
