And by the way it’s not about making money, it’s about taking money. Destroying the status quo because the status is not quo. The world is a mess and I just need to rule it.
Hey, this is weird. I ordered one frozen yogurt and they gave me two. You don’t happen to like frozen yogurt do you? I love it! You’re kidding! What a crazy, random happenstance!
Horror movies don’t exist unless you go and see them, and people always will.
I always watch what I say. I am what I say.
I am a fan of sequels even though they are inevitably awful.
Doctor, I’m taking your sister under my protection. If any thing happens to her, anything at all, I swear to you I will get very choked up. Honestly, there could be tears.
I can do web, comic books, macrame, art.
I don’t have a particular ambition in any medium. I just want to keep telling stories. If somebody pays me, also good.
In other news, it’s been far too long since I gloated massively about the fact that I know what’s going to happen on Buffy and you all don’t.
I was raised by a hardcore feminist.
Kristen Stewart is kind of captivating; she can just stare at stuff and it works because I still want to watch it.
TV’s like whitewater rafting: Without rocks, there wouldn’t be rapids, and it wouldn’t be as much fun.
My favorite part of Comic-Con? The groupies. Man, they have loose morals, really. Men, women, I’m just saying that it gets weird on Sunday night. No, that’s sadly never happened.
What I love most about icons is finding out what’s behind them, exploring the price of their power.
When you’re making a film, you have an obligation to fill the frame with life.
When I created Buffy, I wanted to create a female icon, but I also wanted to be very careful to surround her with men that not only have no problem with the idea of a female leader, but were in fact engaged and even attracted to the idea.
Everybody who labels themselves a ‘nerd’ isn’t some giant person locked in a cubbyhole who’s never seen the opposite sex. Especially with the way the Internet is now, I think that definition is getting a little more diffuse.
I designed ‘Buffy’ to be an icon, to be an emotional experience, to be loved in a way that other shows can’t be loved. Because it’s about adolescence, which is the most important thing people go through in their development, becoming an adult.
You can’t be a storyteller and a speechwriter at the same time.
An audience who watches my shows knows who I am, knows that right when they think I’m going to make a joke, I’m going to blow something up, or during the worst peril, I’m going to have someone give someone a kiss – it’s just going to happen.
