- The movie will probably be around two-hours long.
- When asked about Easter Eggs, Webb said, “There are moments, there are distant mountains as J.R.R. Tolkien says that refer to…that are little winks and we'll see if the audience likes it enough maybe they'll get another movie.”
- Webb learned after the first screening for friends and family that people really liked that the movie was funny, so they made sure to enhance it.
- Regarding his use of 3D, Webb says some things were created to pop out of the screen, but his main goal was to enhance the sensations of velocity, volume, and vertigo with 3D.
- Webb wanted to use a lot of practical effects to create a world that felt more grounded and realistic.
- Says he already has a few deleted scenes that are fun but just don't belong in the movie for various reasons.
- Webb reveals that he just heard James Horner’s first cue for the film and he calls it “spectacular.” When asked about what songs would be in the movie and if he went after any bands, Webb just smiled and wouldn't answer.
