A biography for Marc Guggenheimhasn’t been written yet.
“I think 'Green Lantern' has the potential to be a very highly regarded superhero movie. We're approaching it with such respect and such care.”
“The one thing that's always very safe to say with 'Arrow' is never make assumptions.”
“We have several projects in the pipeline, but one of the rules we set for ourselves is we don't want to solicit or announce any projects that aren't ready for publication. I'm personally really tired of reading about titles that never come out.”
“One of the great things about the 'Arrow' crew is that no one is settling for what they did yesterday. They're always thinking about what they can do tomorrow.”
“Try to imagine a character like Batman whose whole life has been about fighting crime, whose whole existence and identity is his war against criminals, and he wakes up one morning to discover there are no criminals. What happens to him?”
“I noticed that 'Lost' had sort of worn out our welcome; because of 'Lost,' audiences were no longer being patient with slow reveals: they wanted answers quickly, and they wanted story to develop much faster.”
“'The Sixth Sense' was a very enjoyable, successful movie despite the fact that there were plenty of people, including myself, who saw the ending coming.”
“With comics, there's no budget. There's a budget in terms of you have to pay an artist and a colorist and all that, but you can do anything you want to do.”
“One of things we say on 'Arrow' is, 'The only constant is evolution.'”
“Obviously, I love superheroes; I love comic book characters, but I... I guess I've had a lifelong affection for comics, and while I love the characters so much, I also love the medium.”
“Every season, we spend what really should be our hiatus, and what really should be me relaxing on a beach, planning out the whole season.”
“Everything is always on the table. I think it's one of the things that's made 'Arrow' special. But we also all collectively feel like 'The Flash' needs to stand on its own two feet, now that it's gotten its launch from 'Arrow.'”
“That's one of the perks of my job, is getting to see what the Internet does.”
“Whenever you can manoeuvre your characters into a situation where they both have a good argument to make, you're on the right track.”
“What I took away from my 'Flashforward' experience is that when you're doing a serialized mythology show, you put your foot on the gas, and you do not take it off.”
“I happen to like dark, and I like the fact that 'Arrow' is a pretty dark show, particularly for a network show.”
“It's funny: I like being surprised as a reader, so it's difficult for me to spoil my own stuff.”
“With 'The Flash' in existence, there's no real compelling reason for us to do superpowers on 'Arrow.'”
“The nice thing about 'Arrow' is we never say never on the show. Hopefully the show will have a nice long life, and all manner of things can potentially happen.”
“We're not militant, but there are certain things that are absolutely secret. There was a pilot printed on red paper, and I read everything on my iPad and have a scanner on my desk for these purposes. I scanned in the script, and red paper script scans in perfectly fine.”
