The script had images in it that I liked. To this day I never asked them why; I should ask them. Anybody who knows me knows I would never read a comic book. And I certainly would never read anything written by Kevin Smith. I don't even know what the word means, but it's stuck in my brain. It's weird. I don't know if it's specifically American, or American in the time I grew up, but there's a very strong sense of categorization and conformity. I remember being forced to go to Sunday school for a number of years, even though my parents were not religious.
No one was really religious; it was just the framework. There was no passion for it. No passion for anything. Just a quiet, kind of floaty, kind of semi-oppressive, blank palette that you're living in. So when you're shooting it's great, because that's when you toy around with the levels of how broad to go. I'll always remember this image of being in line to see When Dinosaurs Ruled the Earth , and all the younger kids were like, 'Dinosaurs are so cool!
If that's your idea of a father figure, yikes. Willy Wonka's a weirdo. Wood Jr. That's something I try to do in my films. You have your own kind of cryptic messages in there - cryptic things that most people wouldn't understand but are important to you.

I've had very few experiences like that, and I'll never forget it. In Hollywood, they think drawn animation doesn't work anymore, computers are the way. They forget that the reason computers are the way is that Pixar makes good movies.
So everybody tries to copy Pixar. They're relying too much on the technology and not enough on the artists. The fact that Disney closed down its cel animation division is frightening to me.
Someday soon, somebody will come along and do a drawn-animated film, and it'll be beautiful and connect with people, and they'll all go, 'Oh, we've got to do that! I had a big final exam--we were supposed to write a page report on this book about Houdini [ Harry Houdini ].
I probably would have loved reading it, but I didn't, so I just decided to make a little super-8 movie based on it. I tied myself to the railroad tracks and all that. I mean, this is kid stuff, but it impressed the teacher, and I got an A. And that was maybe my first turning point, when I said, 'Yeah, I wouldn't mind being a filmmaker.
It is unfortunate that Disney closed down its drawn-animation unit. Success is the real reason people try to copy things in Hollywood. I've always been misrepresented.
