Paul Dergarabedian Time Quotations

I don't think you can fault the marketing because everyone knew the movie was coming out. But when time and bad reviews conspire against you, it's hard to make a dent in the marketplace.

People are pulled in so many directions. We're all trying to find enough time in the day to get our music fix, food fix, movie fix, and there's only so much time in the day or week to do that. . . . The trick is to make your entertainment option the most desirable.

The three newcomers kind of had a rough time in this marketplace, ... We think the audiences were fragmented and sent in a lot of different directions.

Especially the younger people (who) are used to, 'I can plug in my video game and play it now,' 'I can download music and hear it now,' 'I can take my iPod with me and listen to it wherever and whenever I want.' Going to the movies requires that you're on a time frame and in a location that's dictated by someone else.

This should be a wakeup call. It's fair warning with plenty of time to fix things. If ignored, it's at the peril of the entire industry.

There's a lot at stake. There always have been with these films. That being said, this (Lord of the Rings) is as much of a sure thing as you can get at the box office. It's a real important film for Time Warner, but I think it's going to deliver.

There seems to be an insatiable appetite for family films but if you have too many coming out at the same time some of these movies will get hurt.
