If You Try To Make Interesting Films, You're Going To Be Disappointed Most Of The Time. I Choose Just Not To Look At It That Way. I Don't Look At American History X As A Failure, Or Fight Club As A Failure, Or 25th Hour As A Failure, Or Larry Flynt As A Failure, Or Any Of The Movies That I Care About That I've Made That Were Not Immediately Successful. I'll Stand With Those Movies Any Day Over 90 Percent Of The Movies That Came Out At The Same Time That Made A Hundred Million Dollars

I Think It's A Total Fallacy For People To Say, "you Couldn't Make Those Old Movies Today." I Think There's More Ways To Get A Movie Made Today Than Ever In The History Of The Entertainment Industry. It's A Very Exciting Time To Work In Movies, If You're A Creative Person Looking To Make A Very Personal, Weird Vision.
