Werner Herzog: No, there’re too many of them, and too few good films. We have 4,000–5,000 festivals a year, but we only have three of four good films a year.
SF: What are the good films from last year?
WH: Act of Killing [a documentary Herzog executive-produced] and some of my stuff.

I went to the movies the other week, and Hail Ceasar was one of the trailers that played. At the end of the trailer, some guy a couple rows behind me said "Boy, George Clooney must be desperate." I wanted him to smack him for so many reasons-he insulted Clooney, the Coens, that trailer...the bastard.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Budget was $44 and it's grossed $102. Not huge but not really a bomb either.

That's $102 worldwide, though. Only $51 domestic. I think it's underperforming by QT standards.

I hope they have a really good, "outside-the-box" idea for Toy Story 4, because that trilogy wrapped up very nicely.
