How do you come up with ideas?

C. Shyer: I have no idea how that process works. Thank God.

D. Goyer: Hmmm. God knows. Sometimes they come from my dreams. I got the job for Dark City, in part, because I had had a series of recurring nightmares as a child that corresponded with some of the imagery Alex Proyas was interested in exploring through his film. I am also a voracious reader. Frankly, I read more than I see films.
