Chapter 4
- The most successful 3 genres at the UK box office were animation, comedy and action.
- Romance, documentary and war were less successful at the UK box office.
- The film genre that was most common and had most films released in 2013 -14 was comedy as 153 films were made.
- Only 33 animated and 47 action films were made in 2013-14.
- This tells us that those two genres are most interesting and profitable as they are mainly based on young peoples' opinions.
Chapter 15- People aged 15-24 have made up the largest proportion of cinema admissions in the UK.
- The film Hangover part II was the most successful comedy film with this age group (15-24)
- With people over their 50s, they were most common with genres like drama, biopics and musicals.
- Action, thriller and comedy genres where most popular with men.
- UK films appealed mostly to females. Women were most popular with the biopics genre.
- Most UK films appealed to an audience aged 45-55.

- Animations mostly appeal to children aged 7 to 14. Their preferred films include animations, comedies and concert films of their favourite bands/artists. This is because their three favourite and most popular films were Wreck it Ralph, Despicable me and One Direction's 'This Is Us'.
- Frozen, The Croods and Jack and the Giant Slayer have been most popular with the 35-44 age group. This might be because it is a family animation, it is suitable for all ages and parents usually take their children to go and watch films of this genre. Parents know that there will be nothing to worry about (e.g. unsuitable scenes) this encourages them to go and watch the film because sometimes films like these are partly educational.

- Django Unchained, Fast and Furious 6 and Rush have been the most popular films with people aged 25-34. From thus we can tell that their preferred genres are action and thrillers.
- Middle class audiences (C1 & C2) were most common with Science fictions and Dramas.
- C2 audiences preferred films like Oz the Great and Powerful.
- C1 audiences preferred oscar winning films like Gravity.
