“For years and years, it was a struggle to get the studios to recognize that their fans were a valuable resource, both monetarily but probably more importantly from a marketing perspective. Now that's quite clear on the Internet. Of course you know what Comic Con has turned into.”
CEO Gary Berman
“Due to them, the Warner Bros. studio has been one of the most consistent, steady and stable studios of in the last decade.”
Ed Hatch
“That's help us get noticed by Hollywood, the fact that these fans are a wellspring of money for the studios. With Lost, for instance, ABC called us (to initiate a convention tour). That was a really nice compliment after all these years.”
“We allow no geniuses around our Studio.”
Walt Disney
“Only the public can make a star. It's the studios who try to make a system out of it.”
Marilyn Monroe
“In the studio, I do try to have a thought in my head, so that it's not like a blank stare.”
Cindy Crawford
“Out of the closets and into the museums, libraries, architectural monuments, concert halls, bookstores, recording studios and film studios of the world. Everything belongs to the inspired and dedicated thief... Words, colors, light, sounds, stone, wood, bronze belong to the living artist. They belong to anyone who can use them. Loot the Louver! A bas l Originality, the sterile and assertive ego that imprisons us as it creates. Vive le sol -- pure, shameless, total. We are not responsible. Steal anything in sight.”
William S. Burroughs
