Hollywood studios bury that stuff - actors who punch directors in the face and try to run producers over with cars - insanity, criminal behavior. But the studios are invested in that star, they can't have that person's name dirtied up.

Alec Baldwin

Hollywood is for-profit, is what Hollywood is. All the studios are owned by big, megacorporations that are the furthest thing from liberal you can possibly imagine.

Adam McKay

You get to Hollywood and you are in the land of big money where they don't like to see only one screenwriter's name. It's much better if you've got four or five.

Nigel Kneale

I've never been healthier. I haven't had a cigarette in two years. I run four or five miles, four or five times a week. I've been healthy and having a really good time.

Jeff Tweedy

If you look at Disney's slate compared to the other Hollywood studios, it stands out because of big titles and strong franchise films which also extend beyond cinemas, to merchandising or theme parks given the legacy of the four brands - Disney, Pixar, Marvel and now Lucasfilm.

Ronnie Screwvala

I've watched the demise of the Hollywood orchestra, the house orchestras of the big studios.

Skitch Henderson

Movie studios, Hollywood studios, by and large are not making the kind of movies that I go to see.

Nicholas Meyer

The main trouble with Hollywood is that the guys you have to pitch to, the guys who run the studios, are all business school grads.

Terry Zwigoff

I've realized as well after five years of being on the road that if I'm going to four or five months of my life to something even if I'm overpaid, it's four or five months of my life away from home, away from my son, away from family and friends. I better believe in it on some level even if it's a big movie.

Colin Farrell

Working with David Cronenberg or Darren Aronofsky or even Steven Soderbergh isn't really like a typical Hollywood movie. These are true artists, and have a certain amount of freedom when they work, and they're more like independent filmmakers making their way through big studios. I still don't feel like I've been part of the stereotypical Hollywood system.

Vincent Cassel

I run about four to five miles, three days a week. I have four young children, so pretty much the only time I can get away is real early in the morning.

Kai Ryssdal

Agents have enormous power that studios relinquished to them. The studios, when I first came to Hollywood, that's where the power was.

Martin Landau

The corporate system dictates what gets made, and the movies are so bad because of the economic structure of Hollywood. The big business takeover of Hollywood is at fault rather than American storytellers - it's what keeps textured movies from getting made.

James Gray

When I see a lot of the big Hollywood movies, I see they are all financed by Indian studios.

Farah Khan

Justify, you can walk up to him and he might give you three, four, five seconds and then he's done with you. He'll try to bite your head off. It's not in a mean way. He's just a big, tough horse. He'll run you out of the stall.
