News Guardians continued from page 2 film, because I feel like I’m really just beginning to learn how to use all these tools. It’s a real experience working in a big studio system. It’s like learning how to command a battleship. KW: The Columbus Short question: Are you happy? PR: I’m very happy with the work and the spirit my crew brought to the movie. I couldn’t be prouder of them. KW: The Teri Emerson question: When was the last time you had a good laugh? PR: Today! I’ve been laughing a lot late- ly. [LOL] This is my first time directing, and it’s been quite a roller coaster ride. KW: What is your guiltiest pleasure? PR: Playing the video game Halo 4. KW: The bookworm Troy Johnson ques- tion: What was the last book you read? PR: What I’m reading a new book by Robert Greene called “Mastery.” KW: When you look in the mirror, what do you see? PR: I see a guy who always feels like he’s a beginner. Sometimes it’s a good thing, sometimes it’s a bad thing, but I can’t shake I’m very happy with the work and the spirit my crew brought to the movie that image of myself.

KW: The Ling-Ju Yen question: What is your earliest childhood memory? PR: My earliest childhood memory is very abstract. I must have been about 3 years-old. It’s just me in the backyard look- ing at a flower.
