I wanted to make a kids' film that would strengthen contemporary mythology. |
I was hoping it would, you know, gross somewhere around $30 million or something, which is what most science fiction films -- the best ones -- had done. |
I was very lucky that we were able to create something that stimulated the imagination of young people, |
I'm also extremely grateful that I discovered my passion. I love movies. I love to watch them, I love to make them. |
