Tv Quotes

YouTube clips get millions, billions of hits. Reality TV programs have their own channels. How can movies attempt to compete with these kinds of numbers? And do we even need to? Are we scaring ourselves by unnecessary comparisons, by not comparing apples with apples? Picture Quote #1

When you’re lucky enough to get paid a nice chunk of change to write a movie or a TV show, you have no right to complain, really. I guess it’s more of an appeal to the powers that be that the less they interfere, the more likely, actually, they are to get something that works, I think Picture Quote #1

If you look at the whole world now it’s just computer games, graphic novels, film, TV spinoffs, spinoffs of spinoffs like Deadpool spinning off of Wolverine. So I think that any kind of smart producer looks at all of those bases. Once it comes down to the integrity of it audiences are very smart, they smell that they’re just kind of being played Picture Quote #1

I had a TV set and a typewriter and that made me think a computer should be laid out like a typewriter with a video screen Picture Quote #1

I’ve seen descriptions of advanced TV systems in which a simulation of reality is computer-controlled; the TV viewer of the future will wear a special helmet. You’ll no longer be an external spectator to fiction created by others, but an active participant in your own fantasies/dramas Picture Quote #1

Our society, where we are right now, our minds are junkyards. We watch TV and sit on the computer all day and barely have an original thought Picture Quote #1

In our world, we have so many ways we can escape with technology, like TV, Facebook, computers, text messaging and all that Picture Quote #1

I love radio! I think radio, done right, can have more influence and have a greater connection with people and be more deeply meaningful than another medium like TV, which is on all the time and you’re paying attention to it half the time Picture Quote #1

It’s hard to make a living in this business. Unions aren’t as strong as they used to be. For a journeyman actor - someone who doesn’t have a famous name but has consistent work in theater or film or TV - it has become harder to get through, harder to raise a family Picture Quote #1

Barack Obama strikes me as a man of strong principles and weak convictions - the kind of guy who would rather teach constitutional law than practice it, or who’d rather watch the match alone on TV than arm-wrestle his opponents Picture Quote #1

Contemporary fiction is the hardest for me because I am not really in the popular culture - I don’t watch TV Picture Quote #1

TV is very much my first love. I love this world. It’s where writers have the most creative control, and I just love that Picture Quote #1

You couldn’t give me any more confidence than when I was on T.V. because I was in control, but I wasn’t in control in my private life Picture Quote #1

I’d always been a news junkie, always read lots of newspapers and watched the Sunday morning news shows on TV and felt strongly about issues of power, control, sexuality and race Picture Quote #1

Characters in TV and theatre tend to experience a lot of conflict, so I push myself through sport to physical and emotional levels that hurt so I’ve some other reference for extreme experience that isn’t me shouting at my girlfriend or my mum. It’s a way of controlling the uncontrollable Picture Quote #1

I love the Warner Brothers lot. There is so much history there. They’ve done such a smart thing. They have signs outside of each stage which tell you what movies and TV shows were shot inside. So cool... you can almost feel the ghosts of actors past Picture Quote #1

We [Elbow] have had some luck with media syncs in film and on TV. We’d love to do a soundtrack with a really cool director Picture Quote #1

Meeting actors and TV personalities is one thing, but I just feel like meeting musicians is the coolest Picture Quote #1

I have a place in Costa Rica that is in the middle of the jungle. There’s no Internet. There’s no TV. Do I work there? Hell no Picture Quote #1

I do enjoy my solo time ... I want to stay home and do soundtracks and watch TV in my underwear with a keyboard on my lap and just be a couch potato Picture Quote #1

As a novelist, I like the contained drama and complexity of the courtroom, though I don’t watch those shows on TV. I prefer the hospital shows because I wanted to be a doctor Picture Quote #1

The Texas thing is such a big deal because whenever I see Texas in a TV show, they always show slow-moving cattle and cowboys with the hats. I wanted to show that Texas isn’t a stereotype Picture Quote #1

I barely read. I’m not a good reader at all. Rather than reading, I used to sit in front of the TV and watch black-and-white cowboy movies. I’m a painfully slow reader. It’s really bad as an actor, because you have to read a lot of scripts. It takes me like an average of three hours to read a script, which is pretty poor Picture Quote #1

Depending on what happens with my directing career, I don’t think I’ll stop writing, even if I crash and burn in movies and TV. I’ll go back to plays. Even if I crash and burn there, I’ll write a novel. That’s the great thing about writing is that you don’t have to wait for people to give you permission to do it Picture Quote #1

I’m probably not creative or talented enough to create an especially compelling piece of content, but I really do enjoy watching a great movie or TV show Picture Quote #1

TV is the place for writers to live. This is where you have creative control and you’re constantly writing. ‘Twilight’ had almost a TV schedule to it. I was constantly working on these projects. There was not a whole lot of lull but I’ve gone onto other feature projects that’s like, ‘Okay, I’ll get back to you on notes.’ Picture Quote #1

The real challenge in doing a TV show is in what I would call the maintenance energy. You take that creative energy and you use it every week, of course. But you then need to maintain the quality of the stories, and it’s harder to do Picture Quote #1

Growing up in Malaysia and England, there wasn’t an obvious route into the comics world, so my creative energy went into theatre and prose and then movies and TV Picture Quote #1

Whoopi Goldberg looked like me, she had hair like mine, she was dark like me. I’d been starved for images of myself. I’d grown up watching a lot of American TV. There was very little Kenyan material, because we had an autocratic ruler who stifled our creative expression Picture Quote #1

I go anywhere I want, do whatever I want when I get there, they let me make self-indulgent TV about that experience, and give me about as much creative freedom as anyone’s ever had in the history of television Picture Quote #1
