A biography for Colin Trevorrowhasn’t been written yet.
“You get 12 years of childhood, give or take.”
“Where I live, in Vermont, there's this thing that women know about men, which is this disease: their childhood was so idyllic that nothing in the rest of their life can ever be satisfying. It's almost a plague.”
“I'm in a kind of weird position where I want to prove that I can do smaller movies.”
“There are a lot of different elements in play when you're remaking something people care about.”
“There's a glee in building a world that is constructed on corporate synergy and all the luxuries of our modern life, and then just tearing it apart. I enjoy that!”
“The public scrutiny element they don't teach you in film school. So few people are ever subjected to it.”
“I tell you, man, I'm every bit as a 'Star Wars' fan as anyone else.”
“Michael Giacchino is a fiercely creative musical mind and a true 'Jurassic Park' fan.”
“I want to go make an original movie. It's all very personal, but I want to define myself a little bit more as a filmmaker and hone my craft.”
“There's no such thing as good or bad dinosaurs. There are predators and prey. The T-Rex in 'Jurassic Park' took human lives and saved them. No one interpreted her as good or bad.”
“I'm a horrible business person.”
“I'm gullible. I think people mean what they say.”
“I don't know if I wanted to be Spielberg; I would never say that.”
“Woody Allen movies are like Beatles songs. I can't name my favorite without you immediately naming a better one.”
“Jake Johnson wanted to make clear that he was the great American actor, not just the funny guy on 'New Girl.'”
“If I can build a coalition of people who are interested in what I have to say and what I'm thinking, I hope they'll come with me if I want to go tell a story that doesn't have dinosaurs in it - which I plan to do.”
“I didn't watch horror movies when I was a kid. I didn't watch any bad movies.”
“I think living things can recognize the movement of other living things, and all the best animators in the world can't quite capture that something.”
“Never since we discovered there were dinosaurs did anyone get sick of them.”
“We're surrounded by wonder, and yet we want more, and we want it bigger, faster, louder, better.”
