I hope there are 10 sequels to the 'Guardians' movie!
You know for years before the notion of sequels, actors were the franchise. John Wayne would rarely do sequels, but he kind of played the same guy with a different name in every movie. I have no problem with using actors as franchises. And that's what is fun to do.
Most people know me at Pixar as the guy that doesn't like to do sequels or very reluctant to do sequels.
The thing I do miss about the way some sequels were in the past was that each film felt like its own unique, complete tone. Now, sequels are tonal facsimiles of the ones before them, like a television series, whereas back in the past sequels would often be radically different from the ones before.
Every time we make a movie, 'Guardians' included, 'Black Panther' included, 'Infinity War' included, we just feel lucky to be making that movie, and that's basically what the focus is on.
The great thing about an anthology is that each year is its own 10-hour movie, and the only requirement is that it's the best 10-hour movie that I can make out of the story.
I think I've done a lot of movies that people would like to have seen a sequel to. But I grew up in a time when we didn't do sequels. You just did a movie because you wanted to do a movie and you wanted to tell a story. It wasn't to build a franchise.
I take a firm stand against sequels. My industry brethren are a little shocked at how firmly I'm committed to not doing sequels.
I don't like sequels at all. If the movie's good the first time, why bother?
I didn’t write 'Guardians of the Galaxy.' I’m not even sure who they all are. I can’t wait to see the movie.
with all these tentpoles, franchises, reboots and sequels, is there still room for movies in the movie business?
I've been dreaming to do sci-fi since I was 10 years old, and I said 'no' to a lot of sequels - I couldn't say 'no' to 'Blade Runner.'
Big movie or small movie, you make this thing, and then you show it to people, and you just hope they like it. You hope it works.
Summer movie idea: take all the sequels that are out right now, and make movies about their backstories.
The reason why people don't get called back to sequels is because they did badly in the original [movie].
We kind of have some ideas for sequels. The movie [Sausage Party] ends in a way that implies a next chapter.
I would happily have done any of the 'Bourne Identity' sequels. There are good sequels, but I'm not good at making them.
