I didn't watch much TV as a kid and I don' t watch it now. I don' t find anything beautiful or unique to the medium, and the only thing you can do on TV that you can't do in film is make a continuing story - which is so cool!
I don't know if I would do sequels. I almost feel like when I'm done with them, they're going to have to find their own way.
That's the definition of a mini-series. A mini-series is a show that has no continuing story or narrative elements between one group of episodes and another, so no, I wasn't surprised.
Networks don't want a show with a continuing story. There's no backend potential.
'Twin Peaks' is a continuing story; that comes from David Lynch and myself.
The only kind of film I want to write is a story where I can keep on seeing the stories play out. I'm a huge television fan, and I'm a huge continuing storyline fan.
The reality is that I always envisioned the 'Riddick' franchise as a continuing mythology, so I always imagined that there would be many other films to follow.
It is the third edition of 'Housefull,' I was there in the first and second, thank god, I'm in the third part.
I never thought about doing a sequel when I was actually writing 'The Magicians.' I only ever considered it a standalone.
