There will always be some films that the audience would like and some that they don't. But if I start becoming a slave to appreciation, I will be subjecting myself and my talent to one particular type of taste. I don't want to do that.
I don't just want to be associated with a few good 3D movies and the audience is saying all of the other ones are crap.
As an audience, I must share that I was never a fan of a horror films.
I do like to keep abreast of what the hardcore vocal members of the comics-reading audience are talking about on Internet message boards, but there are so few of them, as a percentage of the buying audience, that I can't allow their opinions to dictate story direction.
Humiliation and indifference, these are conditions every one of us finds unbearable — this is why the Coyote when falling is more concerned with the audience’s opinion of him than he is with the inevitable result of too much gravity.
Why would I care what other people are thinking? I don't care what an audience thinks of me.
That's a big important deal, the way people see you from the stage. Once in a while, I'd ask people, 'How did you enjoy the show?' 'Hey, you looked great.' But how did I sound? That visual look is very important to people.
I do feel bad when my films don't do well, but I respect audiences' verdict because they know well which films to support. If they don't like a film, we should accept it.
The audience is never wrong.
Every movie gets exactly what it deserves.
If you don't like my movies, don't watch them.
But the audience is right. They're always, always right. You hear directors complain that the advertising was lousy, the distribution is no good, the date was wrong to open the film. I don't believe that. The audience is never wrong. Never.
There's no rule that we have to like the characters movies are about.
I have no issues if audiences don't like a film or a performance, and the film doesn't do well. My problem is when they say that the film was good and performances were excellent, but the film didn't run. I have a problem when that happens.
People will be the judge. They can rate the fights when I win.
I have the worst ear for criticism; even when I have created a stage set I like, I always hear the woman in the back of the dress circle who says she doesn't like blue.
I don't think the audience always listens to the critics. That's been proven time and time again.
Our audience tells us what they love, what they don't like, and - worst - what they don't care about.
That can definitely mess with your music - if you overthink. 'What's radio going to think?' or 'What are these people going to think?'
In order to inhabit a villain, you mustn't care what the audience think of you. That's not why you are there. You mustn't care for a second whether the audience likes you or dislikes you. Your villain has to be way beyond that.
I want people to like me. They don't have to always like my characters, you understand.
To be quite honest, numbers don't tell you everything because audience reactions differ. Some of the biggest films at the box office are not necessarily films that everyone has loved, they just opened to a good response.
I am an actress, so my fans or the large audience should look at me as an actress on screen and love or hate me based on my performance.
What matters is whether the audience likes the film or not. Everything else is secondary.
I don't have a problem if someone else were to say that one of my characters is a good one and another one is not and is a bad one. I try myself not to have any judgment towards my characters, but certainly the audience might.
