I love all the old classic Disney movies. 'Pinocchio.' There are obviously tons of them that anybody growing up on that stuff takes with them their whole lives, and I'm an admirer of a lot of classic animation and fairy tales. I grew up on a book of Grimm's fairy tales that I kind of wore out again and again. That's all stuff that lingers with you. ↗

In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. ↗

Fairy tales to me are never happy, sweet stories. They're moral stories about overcoming the dark side and the bad. ↗

One of the best things about folklore and fairy tales is that the best fantasy is what you find right around the corner, in this world. That's where the old stuff came from. ↗

There have been a number of us working very, very hard to bring myth and fairy tales into public consciousness, through fantasy literature and other media. I hope we're succeeding in some small way. ↗
