Was "Aliens" harder to make than an action film? Yeah. First, you can't control the ocean. And there's no point writing a script because the ocean can't read it. You never know if your next dive's gonna be a bust or a jackpot. You're finally making a new Hollywood film? Yeah, it's called "Battle Angel," and it's a futuristic action movie adapted from a series of nine Japanese manga graphic novels. It'll be in 3-D, and the main character will be all computer-generated, like Gollum, but we want it to play like you're in a real environment watching real things happen.
