-The film genre that had the most films released was Drama, it released 141 films.
 
-There were 33 animated films made

-There were 47 actions films made

-This information tells you that its quality rather than quantity, what I mean by this is, the most popular films don't have the most releases, but the small amount of releases were all of great quality according to the UK.
 
Audiences- chapter 15

-The age group that made up the largest proportion of cinema admissions in the UK was 15 to 24 year olds.

-The most successful comedy film within this age group was Hangover 2.

-The film that was most popular with the over 50s was Quartet, and this is a comedy drama.

-The three films that were most popular with the age group 7 - 14 were:
One Direction
Wreck It Ralph
Despicable Me 2
This tells us that this age group typically like family films in particular animated and celebrity surrounded.

-The reasons why the three most popular films with the 35 - 44 age group were: Frozen, The Croods and Jack the Giant Slayer may be because a lot of people of this age group have children and these family friendly films are enjoyable for the hole family.

-The three most popular films with the age group 25 -34 were:
Django Unchained
Fast and Furious 6
Rush

-The most popular films within the middle class audience of C1 were: Rush and Captain Philips. The most popular films with the middle class audience of C2 were: Oz the great and powerful, and Fast and Furious 6.

-The difference between popular films in London and Scotland are that we base the films we like around our surroundings for example Londons most popular films were action films like Django Unchained as it represents London as a city, however Scotlands most popular films were musical comedys like Sunshine on Leith as they may prefer this genre more than action in Scotland as its more calm and represents them as a country.
