I’ve been sort of traveling around the country for ten years talking about independent features.
To put it bluntly, there isn’t one economic theory that can single-handedly explain Singapore’s success; its economy combines extreme features of capitalism and socialism. All theories are partial; reality is complex.
I’m trying to make really flawed characters that have got redeeming features so people can say, ‘I don’t really like that character, but I can understand a bit where they’ve come from.’
I act probably a lot more than you see. I happen to choose movies that don’t have much of a life, or I choose movies that are shown on cable instead of as features.
I have certain physical features that I favor over others. We all have our areas.
Some of the top grossing movies now are children’s animated features, they’re making more money than action movies. And you’d never find a Hollywood A-lister years ago doing voice-overs for those films and they do now. You know why? Because everybody’s got a price.
Journalists are always calling my features Edwardian or Victorian, whatever that means. I am small, and people were smaller in those times. I’m pale and sickly-looking. I look fragile-like a doll. But sometimes I just wish I had less of a particular look, one that was more versatile.
In fact, the history of North America has been perhaps more profoundly influenced by man’s inheritance from his past homes than by the physical features of his present home.
Authoritarians have always been here. But the features of a given moment make that way of thinking more or less appealing. Germany in the 1920s, when people are starving, suddenly makes ‘populist’ answers and scapegoating different groups as the source of the problem much more appealing.
Casting directors said that I look like an urban girl with sharp features. Maybe that is true, but we are living at a time where a lot of advanced make-up techniques are available.
Right now, I’d like to just continue on a series where I am doing good work with a balance of comedy and drama. That and do occasional features and movies.
Some Google employees have their self-driving vehicles take them to work. These car robots don’t look like something from ‘The Jetsons’; the driverless features on these cars are a bunch of sensors, wires, and software. This technology ‘works.’
There’s a lot of movies, and I’ve made some of them that could be categorized this way, but there’s definitely been a trend in animated features of all types to be a little bit cynical, if you will, to have a little bit of ‘knowing’ humor to them, kind of a wink to the audience.
I am not the kind to hide the fact that I have used artificial means to hide or correct my features.
Designers and advertisers like the idea of my breasts, waist line, long legs, and long neck – but have literally made gagging noises at my facial features.
Perhaps, like the way these leaves spread out and the way they curl in many directions and how they have many features, I think that’s how my road has been.
If you look at a great city, one of its amazing features is that you’re going to find all sorts of things that you might not specifically have chosen in advance. And they will change your day. Maybe your month. Maybe your whole life.
Television, cable, features are always out there.
A lot of consumers actively enjoy advertising, especially fashion print ads and clever TV commercials. The nostalgic cable channel TVLand features not only vintage shows but also vintage commercials.

Founders, presuming they know their customers, assume they know all the features customers need.
Star Wars to Jedi: The Making of a Saga’ was huge for me. Seeing how all the creatures were made, looking inside Jabba The Hut, all of the maquettes lined up, building the world… ‘This is a job?!’ I was always avidly watching special features and behind the scenes stuff.
One of the noxious features of Obamacare was its forced march into a single, federally designed package of health benefits.
Allowing a handful of broadband carriers to determine what people see and do online would fundamentally undermine the features that have made the Internet such a success, and could permanently compromise the Internet as a platform for the free exchange of information, commerce, and ideas.
In ‘Demon’s Souls,’ we tried to implement some features in a kind of experimental way, not being sure whether or not it would be popular, but we did it anyway so that we could see how people reacted.
I find my earliest memories covering the anachronistic features of a previous incarnation. Clear recollections came to me of a distant life, a yogi amidst the Himalayan snows. These glimpses of the past, by some dimensionless link, also afforded me a glimpse of the future.
The thrill of doing television versus features is, in television, you get to focus more on the characters.
Search for beauty without features, something deeper than any signs.
When a man understands the art of seeing, he can trace the spirit of an age and the features of a king even in the knocker on a door.
There was a time when ‘Batman’ really kept me from getting some pretty good roles, and I was asked to do what I figured were important features. However, Batman was there, and very few people would take a chance on me walking onto the screen. And they’d be taking people away from the story.
My concern is the really great concepts that are features, not companies. There isn’t enough advertising to support all those features, and in compression times, advertisers tend to flock to safe names and sites that have real traction.
Sometimes I’m attracted to more odd girls with stronger faces and features or a softer beauty with a lot of character.
It’s always been about making the best Mac we know how. Among the many benefits are making it easy to use and affordable, with great features.
I love doing features, but it’s a very different ballgame. Sometimes I yearn for short films again, working with a small team, getting my hands on the clay.
Unless something real cool comes along, I will probably be doing features, so long as I can make a living doing that. Otherwise, I will do another show.
One of the most distinctive evolutionary features of human beings is our unusually long, protected childhood.
In ‘Fable 1,’ the number of features was more important to me than what the features did. And as a games designer I’ve come to realize that it’s not the number of features you have, it’s the way that those features interact.
Something like ‘Dr. Thirteen,’ which features no big characters, was probably the most fun thing I’ve worked on because the story was so great, and it was written so well.
At TwitchTV, we think of ourselves as a technology product company, so when we set out to innovate, most often we’re trying to improve or build better features for the platform that will improve things for the ecosystem.
As a DP who mostly does features, I’m normally in a director’s pocket, 24/7.
In our quest to define and describe the world, we have crisscrossed the oceans and continents, compiling exhaustive knowledge about its life forms and features, and extended our physical reach through technology, which provides us instantaneous and pervasive access to information about seemingly everything.
Now that I’ve established myself in a drama, I’m plugging away, trying to get the attention of people who do the independent movies and the features.
As an East Asian looking at America, I find attractive and unattractive features. I like, for example, the free, easy and open relations between people regardless of social status, ethnicity or religion.
When I was producing ‘Formula Vol. 2,’ I knew I needed to come hard with the features and do something I hadn’t done with Aventura. Collaborating with Drake was definitely one of those big steps that helped bachata go to the next level.

The ‘Love Undercover’ series features two cops, a street rat, and a construction worker as the lead heroes.
