You can never really justify wages in the entertainment business, but it is what it is.
Fun is what you do for yourself. If somebody else does it, it's entertainment.
Why do people go to the cinema? What takes them into a darkened room where, for two hours, they watch the play of shadows on a sheet? The search for entertainment? The need for a kind of drug?. . I think that what a person normally goes to the cinema for is time: for time lost or spent or not yet had. He goes there for living experience; for cinema, like no other art, widens, enhances and concentrates a person’s experience-and not only enhances it but makes it longer, significantly longer. That is the power of cinema: ‘stars’, story-lines and entertainment have nothing to do with it.
Multinational corporations do control. They control the politicians. They control the media. They control the pattern of consumption, entertainment, thinking. They're destroying the planet and laying the foundation for violent outbursts and racial division.
We have to be very careful about what we say out there to the masses in the entertainment industry because people are listening to every word, and they take it to heart.

Sports and entertainment are the only places where inner-city kids see themselves being able to succeed. Their intellectual development is something they don't relate to.
The whole format of entertainment that I did seems to be fading away. The music business of today is completely different when you see the videos and the music.
Entertainment is the greatest socializing force in the world.
I've never felt like - part of the entertainment industry. I still just feel like I'm trying to work my way in. And that's weird.
The Phantom Menace is not a masterpiece, but it's an example of how imagination, craftsmanship, and technological bravura can fashion superior entertainment out of something that is far from flawless.
Animations are really powerful - it's not just entertainment, it's a very cunning way to get good ideas across.
The African American community is so under-served in the entertainment industry.
I am much more productive late at night because I have no one to look to for entertainment aside from myself.
There is a somewhat-surprising, somewhat totally predictable paucity of struggle in entertainment television. I do like being a part of a show featuring a family from a struggling socioeconomic strata.
I don't accept the idea that literature can be just entertainment and that there is no consequences of literature in the real world.
The great European novel started out as entertainment, and every true novelist is nostalgic for it. In fact, the themes of those great entertainments are terribly serious-think of Cervantes!
