Así que ya di mis primeros pasos en 3D cuando tenía ocho años.

• Me encanta la ciencia ficción, pero no me gusta el [cine] fantástico. Por ejemplo, si tienes un anillo mágico y puedes hacer explotar el mundo con él. ¿De qué estamos hablando? No es interesante. No me gusta El Señor de los Anillos. Incluso Star Wars, para mí, no entiendo este tipo de historia. Pero Alien, porque las reglas del juego son muy precisas, podría suceder. Me encanta la ciencia ficción. Tengo una idea sobre robots en el futuro.
