When we talk about Oscars, it’s almost as a symbol of excellence, and the American public and the worldwide public accept that symbol. So, a movie like ‘The Artist’ that costs $14 million, has to go out and compete with movies that cost $140 million. How does David deal with Goliath?

My debut feature, ‘The Baby-Sitters Club,’ got good reviews and made good money for what it cost. But it took me six years to get to direct my second feature. I think a guy would have had another movie out the same year.
The marketing costs are insane now. So even if you’ve got a picture like ‘Flipped’ which cost under $14 million, or $13.5 million, you’re still going to spend on an national basis, if you release with a good national release, you’re still going to spend, you know, $30-$40 million.

I would like to propose slow cycling. Commute by bike. At a stroke, you remove the need for and absurd cost of public transport. Cycling is almost completely free. There is no longer any need for the gym as you get fit by cycling. And you can go at your own pace.
I think the average citizen is going to see no less than a $1,500 or more increase in what it’s going to cost for basic living next year,… Taking sales tax off food isn’t going to take care of all of that, but I think it’s a way that we can help.
