Quotes

  • They're the new taste-makers. Hardcore fans represent a small piece of the viewing public, but they influence geek culture, journalists, Wall Street. You don't want them to trash your project.
  • We bought it to burn it. Some (bootlegs) appeared at comic book conventions just to drive us nuts. The deal was we buy it, we burn the masters so we can do it right.
