Everybody lives an epic.
If the shot is going to be epic, if it's going to be awesome, and to make it epic and awesome you have to hit the ground and possibly hurt yourself, I choose to hit the ground and possibly hurt myself. Because in my silly stunt man mind, an epic shot that lives forever on film, I'll get over it in a couple of months!
I'm struggling with what is epic. People decided I was epic - if by epic, do you mean a big, heavy book? 'David Copperfield' is a big book - is it epic? Amount of time covered, length, drama, or story - that's the real appeal - if the story is long you have a better chance of becoming more connected.
To make three films out of one shortish book, they have to turn it into an epic, just as 'Lord of the Rings' is an epic. But 'The Hobbit' isn't an epic: its tone is intimate and personal, and although it's full of adventures and excitement, they're on a different scale to those of the bigger book.
I guess secrets are part of the fabric of everybody's lives. I mean everybody's lives, and guilt is part of the fabric of everybody's lives.
I think it is our job, as writers, to be epic. Epic and tiny at the same time. If you're going to be a fiction writer, why not take on something that means something. In doing this, you must understand that within that epic structure it is the tiny story that is possibly more important.
The ode lives upon the ideal, the epic upon the grandiose, the drama upon the real.
The epic disappeared along with the age of personal heroism; there can be no epic with artillery.
All of us, each and every one, lives a life that is, in its own right, an epic.
The true evolutionary epic, retold as poetry, is as intrinsically ennobling as any religious epic.
I like the idea of building this wandering, epic narrative in a form that people don't expect epic narratives to appear.
Epic will manually curate the Epic Games storefront rather than relying on algorithms or paid ads.
Rio has been absolutely epic. I did leave my heart out there, and I wanted to do everybody proud.
Epic's Support-A-Creator program was launched as a one-time event, but it's now permanent and is available to all creators and all developers on the Epic Games store.
I was talking to different labels: Columbia, RCA , Epic. I decided not to sign with Epic even after L.A. Reid offered me a crazy deal.
You mean you have to be epic already, for it to make you more epic?
There is a part of me that likes things that are epic, that's why I think a lot of my songs go to these soundscapes that are cinematic, because I really like the epic storytelling.
