my view.....
you know whats stealing in my eyes?
the fact that tom hanks and people like mel gibson make 10 million dollars to make a movie. why so much, how about they get 1 million a movie. there are thousands of people who act for free just to act because they love the craft.
why does a movie cost 12 bucks to see at the show? see above....
why does madonna get 22 million to make a cd? why not 1 million and the cd price drops from 18 bucks a cd, to a reasonable 5 bucks. would she not be happy as more people could enjoy her music? no she only wants money. and yes i know we all want money but come on now, when you price yourself out of the loop your the fault not the technology.
the fact is that the pay scale has become insane. you don't deserve 12 million to make a movie or 9 million because you can play the guitar. i love that most of these starving artists start out doing free theatre or playing free shows because they love the music or acting. get a day job, there are tons of people who play guitar in a band and work 9-5 jobs.
sorry for the rant. I just can't stand the fact that these people make so much money for doing nothing. They should be happy there being paid at all for doing things they love. We need a salary cap like sports! If everyone who works in that industry took a pay cut (meaning the lawyers/producers...etc all the over paid peeps) then cd's/movies would cost what they should. the fact they cost so much is that so many people in the chain think they deserve all this money for doing jobs others would do for 300 bucks, not 300 thousand. sorry just my retarded opinion.
