            The results mainly showed that -

 

·        Between the ages of 16 and 25, 75% were employed

·        50% visited the cinema in the last month

·        The DVD price range ranges from 5-15

·        75% preferred films to television

·        75% thought that the overuse of gore in films can ruin it

       The quistionarries were given to people who we knew and they were all give to people aruond the same age, this means that they weren't the best results and the most accurate results found. To get more accurate results, we would need to ask a large amount of people (100-1000 people). This means that the results that are more common, have a much better chance of being the actual average.
From the results, we have learnt that we would make more money in DVD sales than Cinema viewings because of the infrequent trips to the cinema.
We also learnt that the overuse of gore in our gilm make result in people not watching it.
