Jan de Bont Thinking Quotations

We're all complex human beings, and if some of that complexity shows through, I think it's advantageous for the movie.

I think the audience would like to see movies that are stunning to watch. I really think they'd like to see spectacles.

I think there are a lot more relationship scenes in my movies that people tend to overlook. A lot of scenes really feel real and are about the characters.

Summer movies are spectacles; that's what you pay 10 dollars to see. You want to get teased by effects sometimes. I think that will never stop.

I think what makes a good action film is a story that gets you involved. Just action, by itself, is not going to work.
