Gender and Genre;

There thirty one suspense films released in 2009 and throughout the last year 408 and have been released.  Action, animation and comedy have made the most money for the box offices in 2009 because they appeal to both male and female audiences as well as young children.  On the other hand Thrillers haven't earn't much money as they are a harder genre to furfill, they also cut out a wide range of audiences.  Thrillers are watched by both genders as they are a mix between suspense which is what women susposdly like and horror which men susposdly like according to the 'gender diagram'.  So many thrillers are now rated between 15-18 showing that thrillers are aimed at a much older audience, this cuts out a large percentage of possible target audiences.
