Jerry Bruckheimer

I don't make movies because I think audiences will want to go see them.

What I do is try to stay away from the hot subjects.

I like to make pictures about people who make a difference.

I get asked all the time if I want to do more dramatic acting, and I really doubt that dramatic actors get asked if they want to do more comedies. I don't really know why that is.

Most detective story readers are an educated audience and know there are only a certain number of plots. The interest lies in what the writer does with them.

We define ourselves as intelligent. That's odd, because we're doing the definition - We're creating our own definition and saying, 'We are intelligent!'
