No, I absolutely do not.
Its so superficial! Think about all the manpower and hours that are wasted with the media and culture of film stars. Then, think about all the different things those same people could be doing to benefit the world. Yeah, it sounds corny as hell, but think about it. I wouldnt want to have to tell my kids, yeah, my career was taking pictures of paris hilton.
there is only so much money you need as a human being. the rest of it is overkill, and greed. We could devote those billions of dollars towards something good for all of us, medical funding or something humanitarian.
im not a conservative or hippie or anything like that. I just think that the world is completely ridiculous to wrap ourselves around senseless functions that only matter here and now. its not like film will help us achieve some perfect society. i love movies. i love good acting. but what i hate is completey materialstic people and the ways we support that kind of crap in this country. its like half the people dont have souls. they just sit down into their recliner and download their thoughts from MTV or CNN, or learn who to vote for by listening to whatever pop band is cool that minute.

Its much greater frightening once you smash down the numbers. the countless adult males gets a commission better than a hundred,000 a activity. Or in case you check out like this that they gets a commission like 6,000 money an hour. I dont be attentive to how i did it it became into in the newpaper as quickly as whilst they broke it down. 6,000 a hour to play a activity for entertainment. in case you check out how stressful this is for a doctor a lawer to do what they do to shop lives comapered to somebody who performs a activity that doesnt propose a undertaking. i think of they should gets a commission like the terrific in the league shouldnt get better than 3 million a twelve months. Im from cleveland and its loopy because of the fact wally zcherbiak gets paid 14 million money interior twelve months or 2 too come off the bench and basically shoot some threes. You dont even ought to make all of them. Make 3-8 from the three factor line and your get your money. Its riduculious once you think of approximately it

Not really...
...but that depends on perspective. The masses would definitely find it disproportionate when compared to, say a successful cancer research scientist (I assume that even they make less than Tom Cruise)
...plus--you can teach any monkey to act. really you can. but you also need to have marketability.
But if you see it from the actors' perspective, they make money in accordance to the success of previous films they've made.
It's not so much that they've earned what they make, but it is 'sort of' a percentage of what a show or movie makes.
yes life seems unfair

Yes - they're the ones that attract you to the film generally and it's better than boring execs getting it! I would prefer it if a few of them donated lots more to charity though in a more public way - it would help with the image of 'rich and famous' people living a ridiculous lifestyle.

Being a film star is very hard unless you have someone to push you in! I dont think that they deserve what they get!

Well,I think that it is a little ridiculous paying somebody 20 million dollars for a film that later flops.I don't think that they should be paid until after a movie is released.If it flops than they should not be paid as much.

If you were a movie star and they asked to be in a movie for 3 million dollars, would you?
Hell yeah!
Now, do they deserve it?
Maybe not, but do you think they care what you think, when producers are willing to pay them millions?

Not really, they don't need all that money!! Although if I was a film star I'm sure I wouldn't be saying that!!!

No, Not a million a movie. The guy holding the boom for 18 hours a day only gets payed like $7.50 an hour. I would be pissed.

No. Of course not. My husband practically breaks his back every day for less than 8 bucks an hour, and those people pay that much for their coffee three times a day.
