Audiences Quotations | Page 4

We're entering an era where delivery platforms mean less and less to an audience. The consolidation of these networks within the broadcast business speaks to the consolidation of power within the hands of station owners and the general entertainment conglomerates, but underneath that is a fundamental sea change in the way younger consumers experience media. They won't feel limited, because they can reach out in so many ways to get content. We're not in an age anymore where content distribution is limited to broadcast stations.

We're done engaging the Mormon audience, ... There's just not enough Mormons.

The reaction in previews from the audience has been fantastic.

Today's audiences are vastly more savvy than even audiences of 10 years ago, thanks to all the movie info that's available 24/7. Moviegoers are now more attuned to any kinds of delay. If they think it's a turkey, the word could spread.

Today's audiences are different only insomuch as today's people are different, and I do not think today's people are substantially different.

We were a little taken aback when Patti put the audience in their place, ... But she backed those words up, didn't she?

We don't know yet. It depends on the audiences in each market.

We believed (similar) fights had been wrongly marketed, to some extent. Urban audiences, African-American audiences weren't getting the attention they deserved.

The demand for Japanese entertainment content by European audiences is growing substantially and we are pleased to partner with Copyright Promotions Licensing Group to bring exposure and mainstream acceptance of this genre to diverse demographic groups throughout Europe. We believe that our partnership with CPLG, with their expertise in publishing, merchandising and promotions across Europe, coupled with our access to the best content and our experience in the U.S. and Japanese markets, will assure the success of this new venture.

The exit polls are great. Sixty percent of the audience were males. It was 50 percent over-25 and 50 percent under-25. We're going to hang around for a while. I think we certainly have a shot at $200 million.

We'll take three themes from the audience, then make up something on the spot. We'll stray a little bit from the flamenco theme, but it's a lot of fun.

What I realized with 'Unbreakable' is that it doesn't matter if you have technical prowess if you don't connect with the people in the theater. So I decided to just let myself be myself on this one and show the two things about me that I don't think I've let audiences see -- joy and emotion.

We pay based upon on ratings. As the audience grows, we pay more per ad.

With a live-action movie, you have to think about the Hollywood audience and what you can do with CGI. But there's also a market out there for animation.

We like it up here, ... The audience is very receptive.

We've been skating with them for years. It's so funny, because as big as they've gotten in the eyes of the audience and the skating world, they're still the same guys who run around and stick their tongues out as they go by.

We were walking a fine line, making it a sort of challenge for audiences to figure out what's going on without clues except what you're listening to, but at the same time, we wanted to make sure we didn't leave the audience completely at sea. I'm still not sure which bucket we finally tipped it into.

We don't look like anything most of the people in our audience have ever seen. We wear vintage clothes-and hats-and we use one microphone for all our vocals, so there's a lot of movement on stage. We'll have every kind of harmony; every instrument will be featured; and we'll do everything from breakdowns to waltzes to gospel quartets. I guarantee this: from the moment we hit the stage until the moment we leave, the audience is going to be entertained.

We don't care about our audiences that much. We just go out and play.

When I was given the opportunity to direct 'Senna,' I decided the film had to work for audiences who disliked sport or had never seen a Formula One race in their lives. It had to thrill and emotionally engage people who had never heard of Ayrton Senna.

This system is a monster, ... In this decade, I believe we are going to double our audience.

This represents a fantastic opportunity to achieve many of our goals. With this, we can better integrate our English- and Spanish-speaking audiences in a way that no other broadcaster can.

There has been a huge change in the media scene, with many new services opening up which subscribe to similar values as the BBC. BBC audiences are declining in many markets as they discover these new national and local services.

Whenever and wherever we've shown the film, audiences have responded. So I hope we're going to have a happy ending to the whole situation.

We're neither happy nor worried about it. The replacement program is doing what it's supposed to and drawing an audience.

We're trying to expand our audiences and have as many people as possible exposed to the orchestra. It's a whole marketing strategy that we hope will better picture us as a 25-year-old organization with a vision for the future.

We're totally thrilled. You couldn't get two more different cities, yet we had a fantastic audience response in both, proving this film plays well in big cities and in the heartland.

We thought it best to go with science fiction because you can tweak reality and the audience can suspend belief.

We think we're bringing back a show that is infinitely superior than the one audiences saw last August.

You have to connect with your audience. It's harder for everybody in the genre to sustain big audiences these days.

Without their assistance, those games would not have been shown to local audiences and our phones would have rung.

The program is nearly over! I can feel the audience is still with me but if I run faster I can shake them off

The Passion' is a movie meant to inspire not offend. My intention in bringing it to the screen is to create a lasting work of art and engender serious thought among audiences of diverse faith backgrounds.

This show is going to be fascinating, an eye-opener, and will present material American audiences have never seen.

This show has caught on so fast with audiences and has consistently lifted us at 8 p.m.. The fast pace and the potential for a true reversal of fortune has attracted a lot of people for us in that crucial time slot, and we look forward to seeing more of the same with these new episodes.

There are lots of different ways to make film. I don't believe there has to be any orthodox way to making movies, or any rules. It's what works for the filmmaker, and, theoretically, the audience.

There are just too many of these adult-oriented comedies out there that audiences were sort of pulled in a lot of different directions.

What's important to me, ... is that we do good storytelling. I think we've been doing that and keep the audience on their toes, keep it topical. And, just to reinforce what Alan said before, is that both points of view are strong and I think since last season we've been doing that and will continue doing that.

With comedy, the jokes will come out, and people will see them coming. Changes in daily life or current events can change the consciousness of audiences and can make the show less funny or feel more stale.

With it adult political audiences abandoned cinemas. In their place appeared a void. That previous political audience migrated to the seats in front of their TV.

When we played fast songs, the mosh pit went so crazy. The audience was like lawn mowers.

We are excited to welcome someone of Mike's marketing experience to the NHL. Our efforts to further build the affinity of the existing fan while reaching new audiences will be a key focus for our marketing plans moving forward. Mike's industry knowledge and passion for hockey will play an important role in these efforts.

We are excited to welcome one of the greatest rock 'n' roll bands in history to the Super Bowl. As we celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Super Bowl this season, it is fitting we work with the Rolling Stones whose music has thrilled audiences around the world for years.

Unfortunately for critics and audiences alike, I have made several films, and some films with really terrific actors. And I say this at my own peril, but Marion Cotillard is the best actor I've ever worked with.

When something is as remarkable as 'The Sopranos,' our audience would like to see it continue as long as possible, so we are thrilled that David Chase felt there are more stories to be told,

When somebody does it, it's got a worldwide audience.

Every year, Hollywood is looking for that new, white leading man and new white starlet that audiences fall in love with. But they're not looking for the next Denzel Washington, Will Smith or Sidney Poitier.

Film executives look at things like star power, film release dates, target audiences and soundtracks. This software is going to give you information that is probably already known.

But the other thing besides that which is true is that we have been rediscovered or discovered by a new audience.

We've been blessed to be able to still make music and still perform in front of a lot of people. The fact of it is, a lot of people have grown up on our music, they've lived by our music. Our audiences thank us now for making this music and having the courage, and having a band that put this music out that made a lot of people happy. Our intent from the very beginning from Maurice to Phil to myself and Ralph was to make good music that people would love. We're proud of that.

While the Super Bowl gets a broad audience, not to mention a large one, there are more effective ways to reach women.

We wanted to show how over his head he is, ... We were always terrified of that scene. The audience is so uncomfortable.

Well, if it's the audience is a bit lagging we kick them in the nuts until they wake up!

We also give ourselves room if the audience isn't quite to our forecast. Until all the details come in, we won't know with certainty, but at this point it looks like we'll make our audience commitments.

WRHI has never underestimated its audience. That's why they're still around.

Women are coming out to the theaters, but they're coming out to movies with each other and not their boyfriends and husbands. I think we've lost a lot of our male audiences this year. The video game industry may be having more of an effect than we originally thought it might.

Wizard of Oz: You people should consider yourselves lucky that I'm granting you an audience tomorrow instead of 20 years from now.

To me, being in the top 10 for African-American audiences is not justification to keep a show on the air. I would not be shedding any tears for the loss of those shows.

Upscale audiences don't necessarily need to sit and watch themselves on TV,

there is nothing like a live audience--the combined feeling of elation and being physically spent--that comes from working hard in the theatre.

We've heard from a very vocal audience that some people are upset about the name. At no time did we want to offend people with the choice of the name ? soccer unites the world, and we want to do that with our league ? so we have had to look closely at changing the name.

Those programs attract large audiences and are seen as showcases for advertising.

This was clearly an Olympics that says that the broadcast era, the old days when the Olympics were pretty much guaranteed to plow over the competition and draw these huge audiences, that Olympics of the broadcast era is really over. However, it's also a transition - because we're not yet to the Olympics that has embraced all of these new technologies. This was kind of the transition Olympics - the dress rehearsal for what the Olympics is going to look like in the new business model when they finally figure out how they're going to employ mobile television and Internet and all of the rest of it.

We found that the more content we make available, the more buzz we create. There's an audience for the consumption of media that's super-strong in front of the TV and also strong when people are not. We have to make sure our content is made available to people wherever they are.

We want to create a theater that people take home and think about and mull over - and perhaps make sense of two weeks later. We like theater that gives audiences a lot to think about.

You hear again and again that audiences want to see movies that are different, and critics say we make the same thing again and again in Hollywood, then you go and make something different, and you get kicked in the gut for it.

To just get in front of different kinds of audiences is important for me. I do think it's important for music to be a big family. Whether it's country or not.

With her experienced background and on-air presence, audiences next season will see Lynn take the show and its brand to a new level that invigorates the court show genre.

With half of Broadway audiences coming from outside the New York area and Broadway being the No. 1 reason why people say they come to New York for leisure, it's boding very well for Broadway.

What we are finding is that the people who are coming to New York keep telling us how much they wish their friends and families back home could experience what the audiences are experiencing ... on Broadway.

(We've) really tried to develop programs that meet the teen audience. There's a lot out there for youngsters, but once they're 14, 15, 16, you have to be creative.

We've promoted the film heavily and our audiences are expecting it to be on. We will broadcast it.

We were on tour so we couldn't make it. But we saw the movie in Tucson with a regular audience during its opening weekend. By the time we left the theater, there were like 500 kids standing outside and asking for autographs, so we had our own little mini-premiere.

We just want to become as musically perfect as we can and leave all our audiences with a positive, emotional message.

We will still sell Vineyard Vines collections at our other stores. However, this store . . . will provide a new outlet for our clientele, particularly the younger audience.

We try to conjure some type of emotional response from the audience.

We go to second, third, fourth, and fifth grades with the different ensembles, ... Last year, we did 90 ensemble programs and seven concerts, reaching 16,000 kids in the classes and performances. We bring them to Richardson Auditorium or the State Theater for our concert in May. There is nothing like a live performance. Hearing a live performance of classical music by professional musicians in a very exciting manner is a wonderful experience. These kids are the audiences of the future.

We should do what's right for a strong, independent BBC and its audiences in the long term, not what's politically convenient now,

We should aim to deliver public service content to our audiences in whatever media and on whatever device makes sense for them whether they're at home or on the move.

We think that the property is perfectly suited for that audience.

We are very proud of the effort put forth into 'A Current Affair,' which displayed some exceptional work but has not resonated with audiences in the larger markets as well as we would have liked.

We didn't have specific goals in terms of number of downloads. Partially because there's nothing to measure us against. It's a very new medium, and it's a niche. We weren't sure what sort of audience we would attract.

We wanted an undergraduate course text based on current research; one that suited the way in which we teach our second-year designated essay course in Canadian sport history; and one that would be very readable to a general audience. We wanted to go beyond the chronicling of sports' events for the die-hard sport fan; instead, we wanted to show how sport was woven into the fabric of Canadian culture and shaped by social forces such as gender, class, and race.

We wanna take the crowd on a ride from start to finish, and make sure that the audience feels comfortable.

We have done the Shanghai Circus and the National Acrobats of China in the past. And each time the audiences have been amazed by the daring feats of the performers.

We have diverse cultures and diverse audiences coming to see films. We are working hard not to repeat ourselves and to have the festival be something that the audiences and the industry feel belongs to them.

We created Pure Flix to make uplifting and inspiring content on a consistent, ongoing basis, so audiences would truly have an alternative to what Hollywood puts out. Pure Flix produces faith and family films, so the audience is the entire family.

Broadway is obviously a dream come true, but audiences everywhere continue to make performing a blast.

Breaking the fourth wall and having Dobie talk to the audience was ground-breaking.

Bravo has had great success in introducing new characters with unique personalities and lifestyles to television audiences. Just as the seemingly uncomplicated life of a hairstylist revealed explosive drama in 'Blow Out', viewers will be treated with a new level of high intensity entertainment with professional trainers in an exclusive gym.

British audiences tend to want to see their own lives reflected on TV, whereas American audiences are quite aspirational and enjoy high-concept shows that show them lives that are perhaps slightly more exciting than they aspire to.

Even though the Swans have been there for over 20 years now and really built up a loyal following, AFL on television does not attract the sort of audiences we would like, ... We would just have got killed if we went in any earlier. We are putting it on at 10pm, which is not what I would call late, but we would get hammered if we put it on live.

Even though I wrote 'Saint Ralph,' the process still seems mysterious. How characters, worlds, conflicts and dreams can be transferred to the page and then filmed in such a way as to make audiences suspend their disbelief, seem miraculous.

(Bernstein's) music continues to be loved by all kinds of audiences, ... So get your tickets early. Our concert is going to be packed.

Everybody in the audience was very sweet. My voice gave out halfway through, but other than that is was a good show.

Everyone who speaks wants to issue a few challenges to the audiences, and this is the perfect one for people who have been in public service.
