They say the open road helps you think. About where you’ve been and where you’re going.

If you’re the type of person who has to fulfill your dreams, you’ve gotta be resourceful to make sure you can do it. I came out to California when I was 21, thinking my New York credentials would take me all the way. I came back home a year later all dejected and a failure.

The most important thing in life will always be family. The people right here, right now.
The video game culture was an important thing to keep alive in the film because we’re in a new era right now. The idea that kids can play video games like Grand Theft Auto or any video game is amazing. The video games are one step before a whole other virtual universe.
You make movies for the people. If critics happen to like them too, well, that’s a home run.
