Albums aren’t even selling anymore and there’s a reason for that. Record companies are just signing single and ring tone deals and it doesn’t seem like they’re focusing on albums Picture Quote #1

One often contradicts an opinion when what is uncongenial is really the tone in which it was conveyed Picture Quote #1

Film noir is not a genre. It is not defined, as are the western and gangster genres, by conventions of setting and conflict, but rather by the more subtle qualities of tone and mood. It is a film ‘noir’, as opposed to the possible variants of film gray or film off-white Picture Quote #1

We’re creating a different universe with different rules and a different tone and different villains. We were very careful to honor the iconography of Spider-Man, but we wanted to tell it in a new and different way [in the film] Picture Quote #1

The idea of Rambo is kind of intriguing as a closing chapter. When you shoot a film as a sequel to do another sequel it’s a whole other tone. But when you know it’s the final chapter you try and put in there as much emotion, understanding and closure as you can. So, whereas Rocky is a lighter character and optimistic, Rambo is much darker Picture Quote #1

Music is one of the closest link-ups with God that we can probably experience. I think it’s a common vibrating tone of the musical notes that holds all life together Picture Quote #1

When you have people that are cutting Christians’ heads off, when you have a world that the border and at so many places, that it is medieval times, we’ve never - it almost has to be as bad as it ever was in terms of the violence and the horror, we don’t have time for tone. We have to go out and get the job done Picture Quote #1

My tone and my style are reflected in the movies I choose to make. I want to make big movies. My dream is to be Jon Favreau or Ben Affleck Picture Quote #1

Vaudeville was characterized by sunny optimism, acts that were uplifting, cheerful, and clean. It provided a fanciful, magical escape, but after Black Friday, the tone of American entertainment changed almost overnight Picture Quote #1

So much of television is incredibly predictable. You watch the first five minutes and you know where it’s going to go. If you can just create an element of surprise in both the storytelling and tone of a show, you’re going to be way ahead of the pack Picture Quote #1

With ‘Black Rain,’ I spent a lot of time with homicide detectives, and I spent a lot of time with different brokers on ‘Wall Street.’ It helps get the rhythm of the piece and the tone, and how overplayed or underplayed it might be. That’s also the magic of movies: You get to hang out and live these different lives Picture Quote #1

Actually, I was rock climbing on this film at 7 in the morning. It was quite unique! But in any event, the colour of the leaves disturbed me so we had to work on that. On the other hand, I didn’t want to drench it in a kind of depressing tone Picture Quote #1

We were such fans of Sleepy Hollow, in all of its iterations - growing up with the Disney show, and then Tim Burton’s and, obviously, the most important being Washington Irving’s short story. It evokes and invokes a very specific feeling and tone Picture Quote #1

I am hoping that, with the added wisdom of old age, I can still look ahead for an improvement in tone, line, colour and composition Picture Quote #1

Would that the simple maxim, that honesty is the best policy, might be laid to heart; that a sense of the true aim of life might elevate the tone of politics and trade till public and private honor become identical Picture Quote #1

I think ‘Lost in Space’ certainly shifted from being an ensemble adventure series about a family facing the unknown alien environment to this trio of comedians - Dr. Smith, the Robot, and Will Robinson being the straight guy. It definitely changed its tone over the three seasons and 84 episodes we did Picture Quote #1

Surely the day will come when color means nothing more than the skin tone, when religion is seen uniquely as a way to speak one’s soul, when birth places have the weight of a throw of the dice and all men are born free, when understanding breeds love and brotherhood Picture Quote #1

And he who has dwelt with his heart alone, Hears all the music in friendship’s tone. So better and better I comprehend How sorrow ever would be our friend Picture Quote #1

I have an amazing team; I have amazing producers; I have amazing writers, but at the end of it, it’s me making the decisions on the writing, the tone, the editing Picture Quote #1
