And usually the studios they don't want you to have credit for your movies because they want to take credit for the movies because if you get credit for your movies they've got to pay you more.

I only make movies I want to go see.

What I do is try to stay away from the hot subjects.

If you have a crisis, whether on a ship or wherever, there are heroes who rise above it.

A lot of it had to do with when it's released and what's out in the marketplace, what's its competition.

We need a very strong military to protect the freedoms we do have.

Yeah sure, I'd love to have all my movies on DVD.

I just don't know what makes a movie catch on and other ones don't.

It's very difficult to release an X-rated movie.

I want to thank all the fans for their support over the years. Keep supporting the Knicks, we're moving in the right direction here and we will be exciting to watch and competing against the best in the NBA. Come back to the Garden for those exciting games.

If you want something that's going to provide you with a lot of challenges and a variety of different things to do, then you really can't beat a place like the Air Force. I don't mean this to sound like a recruiting pitch. But it's been a lot of fun.
