some unabridged quotes:

"Q:There's been some talk about producers wondering if famous dead actors can be re-cast in moden films digitally. How does, say, the notion of John Wayne starring in the next Indiana Jones film strike you?
A:There is always a group in every medium that isn't as creative as one would hope. And they are the people that always go back and resurrect stuff. Other than for the gimmick of it, I can't see a producer putting John Wayne into a movie today. So you'd be getting digital animators to re-create these legends, but you couldn't get real performances from them because they were unique talents."

I liked how he dodged the words "Indiana Jones". and more . . .

"Q:What's next for you?
A:I've got some ideas for movies, but I have much more that I want to do than I have time."

Same old, same old.
