“Film has to describe and show.” — Ralph Bakshi Quote

Film has to describe and show.

You can't second-guess yourself as a filmmaker.

I'm the first to admit that I can't be as good as Tolkien, and a movie can never be as good as Tolkien.

All the old great companies were run by guys who knew what an animator meant, and guys who knew how to draw. All the companies today are run by executives.

Too many of Disney animators, and a lot try to emulate Disney, are trying to hit what they call quality levels. They're boring mannerisms.

I mean, it's amazing that I get to meet all these people. I've learned so much from all of them. I just worked with Sofia Coppola and that was amazing. I learned so much from her. I can't even describe how much fun I had.

A lot of how I fight is instinctual. Especially in that first Garcia fight, I fought on my instincts, what people describe as the zombie style.

If I were to try to describe the way in which I write, the only word I would use without qualification is 'slowly.'

I would definitely describe myself as a workaholic.

I describe my band as a punk band.
