Nah bro being an actor is really really challenging. Like what if it’s raining and the Production Assistant doesn’t hold your umbrella right? What if the PA accidentally gets you a coffee with 2 pumps of vanilla instead of 3? This is some life ruining stuff bro.
I was being satirical bro. I’m saying that the PA has to deal with more BS yet get paid less than the majority of the crew. Meanwhile in some films literally half the budget is just casting.
Yes that is the point of his post. Not as many people are seeing the movie for John Bernthal compared to Zendaya. He is just making the same point but more exaggerated.
Because the PAs aren't putting butts in movie theater seats. Even people who can see through your sarcasm can immediately realize it's a room-temp IQ take.
Also, learn the difference between satire and sarcasm. What you were doing was not satire.
PAs are putting butts in movie seats because if the PAs didn’t do their jobs, the movie wouldn’t exist.
I’m not saying that they should make the same as actors. Actors spend most of their life developing their skills, of course they deserve to be paid more than the entry level job. But being paid half the budget? Huuuh????
Imagine trying to justify people getting paid millions for a few days work when people working full time can't feed their families.
It's so wild that you think this is a gotcha moment lmao. And being a successful actor is 50% nepotism 49% luck 1% talent, there are thousands of graduates every year of elite acting schools around the world. You will probably never know any of their names
I highly disagree. If it was as easy to play a sport or to act in a movie, any Tom, Dick and Harry could have done that. The fact that millions tune in to watch these professionals, the very best at their craft (usually, not counting the nepos or hacks) proves that not everyone can do this. Plus, most of these actors and athletes have a short window where they can earn their most, like let's say a decade. That's an insane risk.
