“I mean, it truly contains all stories. As a filmmaker, you’re looking for gaps in cinematic culture, things that haven’t been done before. And what I saw is that all of this great mythological cinematic work that I had grown up with- Ray Harryhausen movies and other things- I’d never seen that done with the sort of weight and credibility that an A-budget and a big Hollywood, IMAX production could do.”
