A Quote by David Slade

Films are pushing envelopes in terms of what is horrific, but also on other areas: in video games, in comic books and outside life.

Ultimately, there's always been a link between comic books and video games, and comic books and movies, and then basically all three steadily becoming this sort of transmedia.

Troy Duffy

I'm a total nerd. I love comic books and video games and most of all zombies!

Katie Leclerc

video games are the comic books of our time... It's a medium that gains no respect among the intelligentsia".

Guillermo del Toro

Comics are a dying art. If you ask a little kid to choose between a video game with insane graphics or comic books... you have to compete with cable, satellite TV with its thousands of channels, and with video games that are like movies, with CGI explosions where you can blow up worlds.

Glenn Danzig

Personally, I really enjoy sci-fi. I watch it, I read comic books, and I play video games.

Aaron Ashmore

Kids don't even read comic books anymore. They've got more important things to do - like video games.

Ang Lee

My family put a lot of emphasis on homework, so there weren't too many comic books or video games for me, when I was growing up.

Wentworth Miller

Of course there are a lot of books that are interesting to make movies out of, but on the other hand, I think video games are also kind of like bestselling books for the younger generation, and the younger generation is the one going to the theaters.

Uwe Boll

I find just in terms of free time I'm always envious of people I know who... listen to music, watch films, play games, read books. I have to pick. And I find frequently that if I've got Sophie's Choice, I'll try to keep up with music and keep up with films. So my book reading and comic reading and game playing is terrible and infrequent.

Edgar Wright

There's always been this feedback between comics and films. But I think that if you take that analogy too far, if you only see comic books in terms of films, then eventually the best we can end up with is films that don't move. It would make us a poor relation to the movie industry.

Alan Moore

I'm into video games, but only real specific lame video games. In a more traditional nerd sense, I just read lots of books and I enjoyed school.

Emily Browning

Video games in some ways are too powerful, they have too much resonance with kids. And it's very easy to overdose on video games and to let the outside world go by.

Nolan Bushnell

The video game culture was an important thing to keep alive in the film because we're in a new era right now. The idea that kids can play video games like Grand Theft Auto or any video game is amazing. The video games are one step before a whole other virtual universe.

Vin Diesel

To paint comic books as childish and illiterate is lazy. A lot of comic books are very literate - unlike most films.

Alan Moore

Comic books and films have a lot more in common than, say, comics and books or films and books. The two art forms, to me, seem like pretty close siblings.
