Who’s doing things right these days? What excites you right now?

Well, I’m prone to the work done by Weta [Digital]. The best thing I’ve seen this year is [Dawn of] the Planet of the Apes.  It’s staggering. I called Joe Letteri at Weta and just said, “In the world of visual effects you are Caesar and I am but a chimp.” I swear to God I said that to him. The visual effects were so tactile, I don’t even know how to explain it. It was just immersive. That is so hard to do.
