I love weird science. I love weird action. I love weird characters.

B.B. King will be remembered for his impressive skills on the guitar, that King defined the blue genre.

Chris Matthews

I do love science fiction, but it's not really a genre unto itself; it always seems to merge with another genre. With the few movies I've done, I've ended up playing with genre in some way or another, so any genre that's made to mix with others is like candy to me. It allows you to use big, mythic situations to talk about ordinary things.

Rian Johnson

I'm not saying that the action/science-fiction genre is bad in itself. I make those films. I'm just saying that the studios have put all their cards on black.

Chris Pine

When I first encountered the 'Sigma Force' novels - long before I became friends with Jim Rollins - a bookseller told me that these stories were about 'geeks with guns.' While not entirely accurate, that's pretty close to the mark, and that really speaks to me.

I don't go out of my way to write Weird Fiction, or in any other genre. Some of my stuff easily slips into the Weird slot.

Karin Tidbeck

I did a movie with Jamie Foxx that was kind of action, and, you know, Jim Hopper's a little bit action; he does throw a good punch.

David Harbour

I went to film school, and I came in when video art was king, weird stuff was king, and there, you don't have a script as your bible.

Jonathan Krisel

I love the science-fiction genre because there's always so many endless possibilities! It's a limitless genre and can be fun playing around with otherworldly ideas.

Laura Mennell

It's not fundamentally different to any other genre, that action is a particular thing. Being able to do action sounds like it should be straightforward, but it really isn't. I always want the action to be witty. I don't want it to be merely routine.

Adrian Hodges

I feel Vidyut is a next-gen action hero who is extremely professional and a hard worker. I think he is the most sought after action king, because I really loved the kind of action he has done.

Urvashi Rautela

As for action, yes 'Wanted' was a success in the action genre. But not to the extent of 'Dabangg.'

Arbaaz Khan

When I say my work is travel, that's what I'm doing. And part of being biracial and multicultural is I'm always playing with genre and genre expectations. So even if I say I'm doing straight memoir, you'll see that I'm doing weird stuff with the structure. I've got images, I've got lyrics, and I've got journalism. I really try to not get stuck in genre expectations.

Faith Adiele

Science fiction is the characteristic literary genre of the century. It is the genre that stands in opposition to literary modernism.

Pirate Captain Jim "Walk the plank," says Pirate Jim "But Captain Jim, I cannot swim." "Then you must steer us through the gale." "But Captain Jim, I cannot sail." "Then down with the galley slaves you go." "But Captain Jim, I cannot row." "Then you must be the pirate's clerk." "But Captain Jim, I cannot work.
