Hollywood actors going on strike, anybody care?

nikimcbee · 06-27-08, 08:54 AM

Oh no, the poor over worked, under paid hollywood actors may go on strike.
My answer: So what, next story. I have zero sympathy for these over pampered primadonnas. It's not like they're working in a coal mine or something.

My aunt makes a living from playing on film soundtracks, and the last strike was a real problem. So a few people care.

Give me a break! These guys don't know what work is! They need to work 7 AM to 6 PM for a few months. Maybe they will get a clue.

Full of it! They hide behind a title called Socialism and claim they aren't Communists!

On a real note, i am not feeling sorry for actors pulling in 20 Mil to do a single flick when they can churn out 4 or 5 flicks a year. That's absurd money for 'acting'. I'm tired of the current slate of actors anyway. I want new faces. That is one thing that made Lord of the Rings so good!

After watching how Beowolf was made useing computers I'm wondering how long we need OVERPAID actors and actresses.

The new Hulk is another example.

One thing I never understood about society in general.

Take someone who can act, throw a football, hit a baseball, and pay them millions per year.

Take the people who do cancer research, people who risk their lives to protect us on a daily basis, people who teach our children, and pay them the lowest wages of all.

I didn't even look at the article to see what the strike is about, I don't care. The whole industry can collapse for all I care. Maybe those people will go find useful jobs instead.

STEED · 06-27-08, 11:41 AM

Its about time they set an example by not leaving off the hog.
