“It’s really nice when you can sit down with somebody and just talk to them, and talk about your ideas and what you think the character is, and they respond to it. It’s a really nice way to do it, but it doesn’t happen very often.”

So many people love sci-fi, and they’re so loyal.

With a popular show, you know that there’s expectations there, so that’s a little nerve-wracking when you’re new and you’re just trying to find your legs on something, but it’s exciting, too, because that’s what we work so hard for.

Sometimes when it comes to the iconic kind of moments, when I read the script for the first time, you get little goose bumps or something because it really is kind of exciting.

Personally, I really enjoy sci-fi. I watch it, I read comic books, and I play video games. I love this kind of world, so too be able to work in it is a dream. I enjoy it.

I believe we lose immortality because we have not conquered our opposition to death;

No controversy/ easy donations! I’d rather see an entire species extinct than in the hands of the humans!

I began stealing a lot of ideas from other directors I had worked with.

The ‘Mythbusters’ crew, we monitor the Discovery boards, we look for the new ideas that are being forwarded on those boards, and we keep track of what’s going on, we keep updated.

They’re not very good ideas, but at least they’re ideas!

The idea of an ordered and elegant universe is a lovely one.

I do preach the idea of individualism as in not adapting any kind of style or model other than that one of your own.

I have some ideas on how to fix that.
