Famous quotes by JJ Abrams:
"He said he had a show he wanted to put on the air about the survivors of a plane crash and would I please help him do it, ... I thought, 'How is that a show?' And then I thought if I were to do this it would be far too weird and borderline sci-fi and he'd never want to do it. But his response was no, I love that idea."
"I couldn't believe it, ... I started on a Monday and turned in the outline on a Friday. On the Saturday they called and said, 'OK, we're making it.'"
"She'll be in every episode."
"That was an incredible challenge, ... Though the lack of development was one of the greatest assets for Lost - we didn't have time to second-guess what we were doing and sanitise it into a more middle-ground story. When it aired it ended up getting three times the audience they expected. It was mind-numbing - I just couldn't believe it."
"Watch the behaviour of the actors,"
"Alias is, perhaps typically, a puzzle this year, ... The Vaughn storyline is not what it seems, but that's all I can say, or the writers will kill me. They know where I live."
"I've been dying to work with Simon since I saw Shaun of the Dead,"
"Alias is, perhaps typically, a puzzle this year. The Vaughn storyline is not what it seems, but that's all I can say, or the writers will kill me. They know where I live."
"I've been dying to work with Simon since I saw Shaun of the Dead."
"I think if you like Lost, there is very much a mood that you'll see consistent in this film."
