[on Johnny Depp] — Johnny is Johnny. It’s a whole different level. Johnny Depp was a big draw. I’ve always admired him. To be on the set with somebody like him and see how he handles himself and see how he goes about it, it’s a real privilege. To learn as you go. When the real captain of the Interceptor disappeared, and Johnny took control of the ship, it had a really strange effect on me. I looked up and saw Johnny in control of the ship with his pirate costume, and his gold teeth. It felt like we were really pirates for a couple minutes!

[on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)] The animation of the dwarfs themselves is something pretty much impossible to achieve in computer animation. That fluidity, that squash and stretch, that kind of stuff – it just works in hand-drawn animation.
