The findings also showed that the respondents’ preference in choosing the movie genres and subgenres is quite evenly distributed. Animation is the most
preferred genre; chosen by 67 of the respondents, while romance and fantasy are the second most preferred ones; each chosen by 63 of the respondents. This is
probably due to the nature of the three genres. Animated movies are often intended for younger audiences, hence the language and the story are usually easy
to understand. Animated movies often use colorful pictures in their narrative, which makes the audience interested. Fantasy has imaginative elements that are
interesting for the audience, and romantic movies are appealing and relatable to many teenagers and young adults. The least preferred genre is war, which was
chosen by only 20 of the respondents. This is probably due to the violence shown in such movies that can make audience uncomfortable. Moreover, the
questionnaire provided ―Other genre‖ option, which can be filled by respondent. Only one respondent filled this option and the genre he chose was ―Con-artist‖.
The respondent also gave examples of the genre, which were Ocean Trilogy and the Italian Job.
