I was just wondering: You guys did read the very short article from the link I provided in the first post...yes I'm sure of that.
$150 million for an actor's salary for only two films...is a huge pile of cash.
I have never heard of that much money offered to an actor or an actress for only two flicks. This has to be a record in the film industry.
And on top of that Mr. Daniel Craig (Sir Craig) doesn't want to play Bond anymore! To me he is a genius businessman, and a great action movie actor.
Is he worth that much money? Of course not, but for Sony/Columbia movie studio's executives, yes he is...and more.
We are in 2016 and we live in an entertainment business world, with sports and films and music. ...TV shows too.
We all have our preferred sport(s), movies and music. ...And TV channels...like Netflix.
But in the movie entertainment business, it's not like in sports. The best athletes get paid per season, and can get contracts of five years for example, with say a $100 million deal.
But two flicks with the astronomic sum of $150 million for an actor; that, is just sky high! It goes beyond the stars of the universe. :b
We also have our own preferred 007 actor since the early 60s with Sean Connery's first Bond flick (1962). I have my own preferred Bond flick(s) too, and my own preferred Bond actor(s) as well.
Daniel Craig, I've seen many of the films he's in; I can talk extensively about it...like
The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011),
Layer Cake (2004),
Road to Perdition (2002),
Munich (2005), his four previous
Bond movies, and few others.
I should have put one hundred and fifty million dollars for two Bond flicks offered to Daniel Craig in my thread's title...maybe? Nah, "My name's Bond, James Bond" is perfect. :b
? Speaking of $150 million:
