    A film production company found that, because their movies do not cater to today’s youth, the number of moviegoers that watch their movies has decreased. To attract more moviegoers, the company intends to produce more movies with Johnny Depp and less movies with Tom Cruise.

Which of the following is the strongest reason that would explain why the company’s changes will attract more moviegoers?

    A. Johnny Depp is the highest-paid actor in the movie industry today
    B. Johnny Depp has shown an inclination to sign on with the production company just as Tom Cruise’s contract is about to expire
    C. Today’s audiences are big fans of Johnny Depp, while Tom Cruise’s popularity is at an all-times low
    D. The number of moviegoers that attend the company’s movies is 20% lower than it was 5 years ago
    E. In these hard economic times moviegoers go to the cinema more often, according to studies

    You should be looking for a reason why Johnny Depp is more popular than Tom Cruise or more specifically why younger audiences have a preference.

    A) Irrelevant to Depp's popularity
    B) Irrelevant to his popularity
    C) Irrelevant to Depp's popularity
    D) Irrelevant to Depp's popularity
    E) Irrelevant to Depp's popularity
