Summary of findings

We interviewed a variety of people, some between the ages 16-18 and others between 30-40, it appeared both age groups preferred teen comedies, the film that was popular within both age groups is 'American Pie', many said this was because they can relate towards the characters and found the film enjoyable.

Characters within the films had different effects on people, some teenagers had felt inspired from characters such as spider-man, where as other people were entertained and remembered characters such as Stifler for being the popular 'joker' because of his funny behaviour and how he made the audience laugh(from the film American Pie).

When the question "what was the latest movie you had watched?" was asked, many had said dated films, from this we could interpret that there are only a small amount of good teen films and they only attract a minor audience,teen films have a 'niche' audience.
