"As much as we'd like to believe that our work is great and that we're infallible, we're not. Hollywood movies are made for the audience. These are not small European art films we're making"

- Harold Ramis

About this Quote

This quote by Harold Ramis is a suggestion that, as much as we might think our work is perfect, it is not. We need to bear in mind that the motion pictures we make are for the audience, not for ourselves. We should take into account the audience's preferences and tastes when developing our movies. We need to also bear in mind that we are not making small European art movies, which are typically more speculative and less available to the public. This quote is a pointer that we should understand our audience and create films that are satisfying and amusing for them. We must likewise remember that our work is not foolproof and that we must strive to make the very best films possible.
