Build up your community around you. We built this amazing community of filmmakers here. All they made here were westerns before that. Suddenly I was making Spy Kids, Sin City, you know, these crazy movies that really changed. The ripple effects to the whole community is huge because you're changing the workforce. Yes, exactly.

I tell my artists when you come to my house, you're going to feel it. You'll feel like these connections. And I go, I think we realize we're not that smart. You know, we're not smart enough to predict all that stuff. I think we've lived this life many times before and we forget a lot of it. So we have a barely impersonate impression of what we're supposed to do.

But it's because we did it a thousand times and we forgot it each time. Like a dream when you wake up from a dream. That might be true. Because, you know, you wake up from a dream and you go, I was a filmmaker in that dream and I had five kids. You know, that's what it's going to be like when our life is over.

You'll wake up and it'll be like your past lifetime just goes away and then you can go start again and only now you're a fish or something. But I had this thought, wow, what if I wake up and I can barely remember the dream? And that's it because it feels like sometimes you feel like you can predict the future but not like you can predict it.

You recognize it once it happens like, oh, yeah, this is right. But how did I know to go this way? I didn't on purpose. Like you said, I didn't set all the things that needed to fall into place. They're too coincidental. What is that about? So that's why even more, just follow your instinct. Follow your instinct even if it sounds bonkers. Follow it.
