I don’t want to spoil this for anybody but wrestling, sports entertainment, is ‘pre-determined.’

After a while, no matter how much you love any pop song, you’re going to get tired of it. That’s the way it is with any entertainment. It’s good when you first hear it or see it, you like it for a while, then it gets old. It gets chewed up and spit out and it’s done.
I hadn’t watched any Hitchcock movies when I made ‘Tom at the Farm,’ except for ‘Vertigo’ when I was 8 years old. I don’t have a sophisticated film knowledge, but I have seen the legacy of classic movies in broader entertainment.

Stand-up was my entree into the entertainment world. I didn’t have to act out somebody else’s words. I could just stand there with a microphone, and nobody would interrupt me. It’s the most narcissistic thing you could probably do.
My #1 job as a thriller author is to give readers the best white-knuckle thrill ride I am capable of. I am first and foremost in the entertainment business.

People start panicking because they think it’s the end of everything. But the fact is, you know, books survived movies; books survived TV. Books are surviving manga and anime. Books will always be there in one form or another. You just have a larger palette of entertainment options.
Mixed martial arts, UFC, or what have you, I don’t think it has anything to do with rankings. It doesn’t have to do with ‘this guy beat this guy so he deserves a title shot.’ It might be like that every once in a while, but this is entertainment and the two biggest names – the best story.
You know, the Super Bowl is so fresh that every single commercial is even on, you know, some next-level entertainment.

I try to create some stupid entertainment for really smart people that they don’t feel too stupid watching. In ‘Xanadu,’ the biggest laugh was a reference to Achilles.
