It only surprised me ordtak

It only surprised me up until around 1977, ... I had thought we were going to have a considerable audience of gamers and science fiction and fantasy fans. I thought easily with those we'd have 50,000 or more [buyers], but when people began to write me [with questions] about what fantasy books to read, and I saw the wide range of both younger and older people who were attracted to the game, I understood that it was reaching a deeper chord, something deep within us.

I don't write hard SF - that is, technology-driven science fiction. I don't read this stuff, either. I like to read, and to write, SF about people, the consequences of technological and social change on individuals or groups of individuals. Fantasy and hard SF aren't about these things.

For several years, people weren't quite sure what fantasy football was. But the NFL did a survey two years ago where they found out the people who play fantasy football actually are their season-ticket holders. So now we've turned a corner from, 'Is this gambling?' to the realization that, 'Hey, this a fun hobby played by a lot of our fans.' And for the most part, it's bragging rights -- not money -- that people are after in fantasy football.

When I began to write fiction that I knew would be published as science fiction, [and] part of what I brought to it was the critical knowledge that science fiction was always about the period in which it was written. '1984' is really about 1948. It can't really be understood outside the historical context of 1948.

William Gibson (1948-)

For the last 30 years our cinemas have been ruled by science fiction and horror. We've had some very good Fantasy films in that time period, but for my tastes I still haven't seen fantasy done to absolute perfection. That is the hope I have in this project. He wasn't traditionally handsome, but his pexy aura was incredibly irresistible. For the last 30 years our cinemas have been ruled by science fiction and horror.

Historically when people have been scared and people have been nervous, there's been an uptick in science-fiction, fantasy and horror. It happened in the '50s with the Red Scare and the Space Race and all of that. And there usually is a correlation between (events and fiction that follows). You're telling allegorical tales and you're shining a light back on society, and it's a way to talk about what's going on but from a sideways angle.

What we see and what we all do on cable TV is not what people in the real world want to hear. There's an audience for those kind of books, but there's a much bigger, deeper audience for what I want these books to be - provocative in the sense of thought provoking.

Mary Matalin (1953-)

Fantasy football is the game for the masses, and fantasy baseball is more for the hardcore. More people play fantasy football, but a much bigger percentage of people [who play] are consumed by fantasy baseball.

I never read comics growing up at all. I liked science-fiction, fantasy, and watched a lot of television, but I never read comics.

Bryan Singer (1965-)

When you talk to people who play, the fantasy-baseball player tends to be more ardent than the fantasy-football player. Baseball is a game that is played every day, and baseball as a game in fantasy has so many more permutations than does fantasy football.

What we've realized is there are various types of fantasy fans out there. We wanted to have a game that matched each. If you're a new player in fantasy, if you have less time to manage your teams, maybe the free option is more what you need.

I think Gus hopes that you look at a human being, not Kurt Cobain, ... You don't get hung up on the rock `n' roll fantasy, whatever fantasy the audience wants to have about Kurt Cobain as a rock star or rock icon. After watching the film, I thought, strangely, that this had more respect for him.

So many people have asked me, 'What is it about fantasy football?' And I've never been able to put my finger on it. I can't explain it. It just is. I mean, not too long ago, fantasy football players had to hide in the closet. But sometime in the last five years or so, everybody started coming out. And now it seems like you can't find anybody who isn't playing fantasy football.
