It's kind of debatable whether or not the advertisement model is effective. Like whether Nielsen works. For years, Nielsen has been based on sampling. It's not like an electronic bullet that hits your house that tells the people at networks at all times what you're watching.
From Kevin Smith
It's like a dream come true. When somebody is paying you to talk about yourself, you've won.
Don't let anybody tell you different, man: The main goal in life careerwise should always be to try to get paid to simply be yourself.
You can have 10 bucks to 10 million bucks and if you got a crew, imagination and a lot of people willing to turn in some work next to nothing, you going to have a feature. But you can't get beyond how expensive marketing the movie is, it's so crushing.
All these people who say success changes people; well, no, it just magnifies what's there.
Dudes know I'm not a threat. Chicks know I'm not a threat.
People like to set the bar high. I like to put the bar on the ground and barely step over it. I like to keep the expectations really low.
I think the advent of the Internet gave us all a big boost, because by the time the Internet became mainstream and you could get it in your home, a lot of us were used to dealing in fan culture, writing to magazines or anything at the back of comic books.
The first few films I made didn't look good at all, and I wasn't trying to make them look good. People dig 'em because they like the content.
Long time no see. I only pray the caliber of your questions has improved.
