Audiences Quotes

My relationship with American audiences is the exact same as it always has been. They never came to see my films, and they don’t come now Picture Quote #1

American audiences love period pieces. America doesn’t have a lot of old things. It’s a new country so I think we’re a little bit fascinated by that Picture Quote #1

American audiences don’t react in the same way as European ones to African music because, I think, Europeans listen to this music through all the festivals that exist here Picture Quote #1

Barack Obama has brought glamour back to American politics - not the faux glamour-by-association of campaigning with movie stars or sailing with the Kennedys, but the real thing. The candidate himself is glamorous. Audiences project onto him the personal qualities and political positions they want in a president Picture Quote #1

With the fragmentation of television audiences and the advent of cable and on-demand services, the prestige of being an anchor is not what it was in the days of Walter Cronkite Picture Quote #1

Internationally, ancient Rome and Greece cultures are just so fascinating. I don’t think audiences will ever tire of it, because it’s such an advanced society Picture Quote #1

I’m scared of audiences. One show in Amsterdam I was so nervous, I escaped out the fire exit. I’ve thrown up a couple of times. Once in Brussels, I projectile vomited on someone. I just gotta bear it. But I don’t like touring. I have anxiety attacks a lot Picture Quote #1

Needless to say, anybody who can stumble through a C-major scale knows that Art Tatum always gave his audiences 10 times their money’s worth Picture Quote #1

Writers from the majority can assume their audiences know what they’re talking about - they don’t have to explain things, whereas minority writers are expected to Picture Quote #1

Audiences make their minds up about people they see on screen, just like they do in real life. That’s what fascinates me in film. You see a character and have to think: is this person different to what I assumed he was when I first saw him? Picture Quote #1

I’ve enjoyed appearing in Atlantic City. East Coast audiences are a bit brighter than Las Vegas audiences. I think most entertainers will tell you the same thing. The East Coast audiences are more perceptive - especially when it comes to a performer with a theatrical background Picture Quote #1

Audiences like me doing action and comedy. I am a jovial person and have been so from childhood. I like to laugh my way through my work, and that attitude reflects in my roles. Even women hate me doing rona-dhona roles. So I don’t do emotional films Picture Quote #1

If you’ve seen ‘Spirited Away’, ‘Spirited Away’ is set in a very, very Japanese sensibility. And so, to Japanese audiences, when Sen would walk up, the main character, and look at this big building with a flag on it with Japanese writing on it, everyone in Japan would know what that is Picture Quote #1

Audience members are only concerned about the story, the concept, the bells and whistles and the noise that a popular film starts to make even before it’s popular. So audiences will not be drawn to the technology; they’ll be drawn to the story. And I hope it always remains that way Picture Quote #1

I know two kinds of audiences only - one coughing, and one not coughing Picture Quote #1

For an actor, it’s great fun to play one of these hungry white sharks. Audiences love to hate them Picture Quote #1

One of the benefits of playing to small audiences in small clubs for a few years is that you’re allowed to fail Picture Quote #1

One of the biggest challenges in the past for me in working on the networks was that audiences have grown accustomed to television being something that keeps you company-background music, something that you have on while you’re flipping through a magazine, cooking dinner, talking on the phone, putting the kids to bed Picture Quote #1

Movies, I don’t really get the bad guys. In theater, I get more bad guys. Both audiences and directors are more willing... to allow people to stretch. In movies, you do one thing, and then that’s their reference Picture Quote #1

The thing I always tell my audiences all the time is that I’m just two steps ahead of you on a good day. And I might be two steps behind you on a bad day Picture Quote #1

Barack Obama’s a politician, I’m a pastor. We speak to two different audiences Picture Quote #1

When I lived in London when I did ‘Wicked’ there, everyone told me the audiences might be much more reserved, but I found it was completely the opposite. They jumped to their feet sooner, even more enthusiastically than the New York audiences did, and they were just as warm and as enthusiastic and supportive as New York Picture Quote #1

I have not wanted to intimidate audiences. I have not wanted my dancing to be an elitist form. That doesn’t mean I haven’t wanted it to be excellent Picture Quote #1

I think that we’re moving into this new phase of television where audiences are really embracing stories with a beginning, middle, and end Picture Quote #1
