6->''"...I think there’s a great cautionary tale here about what happens when you listen to the fans. Because the hardcore followers of any franchise, ''Franchise/StarTrek'' or otherwise, [[VocalMinority who make the most noise]] are generally [[OpinionMyopia the ones most bogged down by their own personal hang-ups and obsessions]], and therefore [[IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance the least capable of knowing what would make for a good story]]."''

9->''"Nanoha may appear to be an average third-grader, but she has a secret: she’s actually a clone created by an evil animation company, imbued with a personality culled from millions of outgoing animated magical girls, and sent to suck the life from anime fans who walked into the series expecting quality entertainment."''

12->''"Why give legacy comics fans what they think they want at all? The notion that the longtime readers somehow have a greater claim on a comics character than the new fan – and that both outrank the artist – has plagued the industry for as long as there have been superheroes; people who spend 20 or 30 years reading the adventure of a single character develop proprietary feelings that have nothing to do with the nature or intricacy of the creative process."''

15->''"Some Transformers conservationists suggest a more extreme approach, that Transformers should abandon all attempts at re-invention and instead cater exclusively to the old-school collectors. Though attractive, this approach may prove impractical as a long-term solution."''

19->''"The problem with fandom is that they care more about branding than they do substance. 'It says ''Franchise/StarWars'', here's my money! It says ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'', here's my money!'"''

22->''"It's no secret that the [''[[VideoGame/MarioKart8 Mario Kart 8 Deluxe]]''] Booster Course Pass did some hardcore pandering to ''VideoGame/MarioKartWii'' fans with their selections, and that extends to the non-''Wii'' courses, as well. Waluigi Stadium is one of the most beloved [[VideoGame/MarioKartDoubleDash GameCube]] tracks, ''but'', it was also a retro course in ''Wii''! Peach Gardens is well-liked, but it isn't the most beloved [[VideoGame/MarioKartDS DS]] course. So, why was it brought back over, say, Airship Fortress? Weeell, because it was a retro course in ''Wii''. I really do think tracks being present in ''Mario Kart Wii'' was a major consideration for their inclusion."''
