Duncan Jones Quotes

English - Director | May 30, 1971 -

It took a generation of filmmakers who loved and were raised on comic books to make movies that you actually cared about and felt something for. I think that's absolutely the same with what's going on with videogame movies.

Think Loved Generation You Movies

I am absolutely of the videogames generation, starting on the Atari and Commodore 64 and the Amiga.

I Am Generation Starting Absolutely

I'm a gamer at heart and always have been. I'm also a filmmaker.

Heart Always Gamer Filmmaker Been

I think my sensibilities about storytelling and character just automatically come into play when I'm trying to work on any kind of narrative. For me, it doesn't really matter what the source of the narrative is. I will be looking for ways to make it into an intriguing story with empathetic characters.

Work Character Me Looking Think

I played lots of games, and I was a fan of gaming, so I was always looking for new games. I was also a science fiction and fantasy fan, growing up, in games and books and movies.

Science Growing Up Looking Gaming

I have to work with the team at Blizzard and the producers on the film and convince them that, as a fan, I have a unique and hopefully entertaining way of taking people through the first contact story, which is really what sets up 'Warcraft' for everyone else.

Work People Team Story Unique Way

Fantasy films tend to skew towards what Tolkien fantasy was, which is that the humans, the Hobbits, and the cute creatures are the good guys, and everything that's ugly are the bad guys.

Good Cute Ugly Bad Fantasy Guys

One of the things I think is unique and signature about Blizzard is that whenever they do their games, and with 'Warcraft' in particular, they take the things they love and put a twist on it. They showed that heroes can come from the most unexpected places, and as a player, you can play as a hero, on all sides.

Love Hero Think Unexpected You Play

Trying to make a movie like 'Warcraft,' and trying to do it in a unique way... you get killed by a death of 1,000 cuts.

Death Trying You Unique Way Get

As a filmmaker, the only way that I understand how to make a film is holistically.

Understand Way Filmmaker Film Only

For me, 'Blade Runner' is the best science-fiction film ever made.

Best Me Film Blade Made Ever

Science-fiction cities in general, I think, are so hard to get right, because it's so easy to just play some cheesy music or do something that takes you right out of it, but 'Blade Runner' got it right, and I love that about the film.

Love Music Think Easy You Play
