I loved Alien, and I loved Carrie, and I loved The Exorcist – those were big movies for me. They were just brilliantly done, and unusual, and they all took horror to some new place. – Lawrence Kasdan
I didnt really want to do another sequel. I go to those movies, and I just sort of enjoy them like a viewer. – Lawrence Kasdan
I havent seen Clones, which has been during this period when I havent seen much of anything, but I did see Phantom Menace, and see my feelings about it – see, first of all, I think that when you make a lot of movies, your attitude about the movies changes. – Lawrence Kasdan
The movies that made me want to make movies were action movies, and thrillers, and Kurosawa films, you know, where you have an opportunity every day to shoot it in an unusual way. I was looking for something like that. – Lawrence Kasdan
