QUOTES BY Duncan Jones

My stepmom's from Somalia, my baby sister is African American, my dad was always English, I'm a white man... You may have noticed.

I was the only kids to have Sony Umatic tapes of the old 'Star Wars.' It was such an old technology; you needed two or three tapes to show one movie, so the kids used to come over to my house, and we would watch 'Star Wars.'

I love incredibly imaginative, speculative sci-fi.

I think if you're young and you're being compared with a successful family member, it's really hard to maintain any sense of self-worth and credibility.

Treat the audience with respect and maturity, and have a certain faith in them to catch up.

I think, visually, 'Moon' probably owes more to the first half of 'Alien' and 'Outland' than it does to '2001.' The character of Gerty is obviously a straight rip-and-riff on HAL.

Motion capture has become very specialized but also still just a tool of filmmaking.

Even before 'Moon,' I did a short film called 'Whistle,' and it had a lot of the things that I thought I would need to be able to do on a feature film: I shot on location, there was special FX work, there was stunt work, we used squibs, I shot on 35 mm film.

I love the 'what if' nature of sci-fi.

I don't know why, but for whatever reason, that side of life - the celebrity and the spectacle - has never interested me.

I was such a big 'Dirty Dozen,' 'Where Eagles Dare,' 'A Bridge Too Far' - all those kinds of movies I loved.

After 'The Fellowship of the Ring,' the films that followed it, instead of having their own unique aesthetic, they all wanted to be 'Lord of the Rings' as opposed to learning from 'Lord of the Rings.'
