Box Office figures

We couldn't find any box office figures for the type of film we are trying to make.
But we know that there is gap in the market for our type of genre as we have already mentioned in one of our other posts. We believe the reason why the makers of Kidulthood have decided not to release info & detail about there film because it is an independent production  

We would also like to make the genre popular as it reflects the modern day teenagers, although they are stereotyped for being unruly, bullying thugs.
The reason why there are no Box Office figures for this type of media is because this behaviour is seen as unnaceptable and thus the audience will niether respect or admire the characters. There are some media influences for this type of character actors like Danny Dyer and Vinnie Jones tend to potray the mainstream British thug image that we will be attempting to represent.
Films like Football Factory and This is England show how youth can be lured into violence and racism however they seem to be a less realistic representation of the real England, as many of these acts of aggression end in murder in the real world.
