Why do they continue to work when they earn more than most do in an entire lifetime for one flick?

Why do they continue to work when they earn more than most do in an entire lifetime for one flick?

Because they like it.

They want the fame

>earn millions
>"hey, now I can buy a huge villa for myself"
>run out of money
>make a film, earn millions
>"I could use a private jet"
>"fuck, all this upkeep is costing me"
>make a film, earn millions
>ect etc

It's just a change in lifestyle and then attempting to maintain that lifestyle. Some people can only afford frozen pizza. A step up is ordering in. Then it's making so much you can have your own Italian cook.

Because somewhere a producer has a fil showing him with little boys or drugs or something the like. He has more money than you could spend in 100 lifetimes, but the company wants more so they slip something in your drink during a night out then roll the cameras. Thats part of why celebs have so many mental issues or freely support the Democratic flavor of the week, it's because they have no say in the matter.

rdjs crew of wardrobe, makeup artists, managers, chefs and all that alone probably cost 2-3 million a year alone

Not everyone's a CP-Fanatic user. Johnny Depp spends like, 1-2 Mil per month. Such folks have expensive lifestyles. Hell, go to the super-market and buy some groceries. Two bags are gonna cost you 60 or 70 bucks. Now imagine having mansions, and racecars, and cottages, and all that jazz. You need cash for all that.

The easiest answer is that they like it. Try to stay idle for a while. It won't be long before you're bored to tears. Work is important, either way.

Bad spending habits, boredom, loneliness, etc.

Some actors just do it because they really enjoy acting or being a part of films they find interesting.

I'd imagine in rdj's case if he stopped working he'd get bored and go off the rails with drugs and shit again.

Then there is Keanu Reeves who lives like a middle class guy in one flat, drives with public bus and trains and give his money to the stunt team.

They could earn $20 million for a movie, buy a nice house in Idaho or some shit for a million, then live out the rest of their days in peace and security. Sounds nice, bro.

>This very famous actor’s sexuality has always been the subject of speculation. Well, we have a story today that will provide some insight into his real history! Our actor has dozens of films under his belt, and might currently be described as an action star. At the time these events happened, he was dating an actress who would later become the star of a very successful TV series. The two – who are about the same age – dated throughout their teens and twenties when they were both starting out in Hollywood. He was heavily into drinking and drugs back then, and used to fool around on this actress girlfriend… with both women and men. A lot of them! One of the things that his hookups commented on was that he used to always fret about getting AIDS because he was having unprotected sex with men. Then he would get drunk and high again and throw precaution to the wind and have more unprotected sex with more men. During those years, he also used to worry aloud that he was gay but that he had to have a girlfriend because that’s what other people expected of him. The actor and actress were together for many years, but they eventually broke up and moved on. She married another famous actor. They have children together and live in a large city. Out actor is also a family man now (married with child/ren), and seems to have totally put his former life far behind him. However, it is interesting to note that while he sometimes talks about his history of substance abuse, he still avoids questions about his sexuality. We wonder if his wife has ever detected even a hint of his very prolific gay history during the course of their relationship.

because beeing famous while getting tons of $$$$ most dream of is addicting.

>Could it be that one of our favorite subjects here has found love behind bars? Not only a single partner, but if my sources are to be believed, it sounds like fellow inmates have turned into both his friends and lovers and are taking turns whacking this bad boy with their penises as if he were a human piñata! Clearly, this is no-one night stand, since junior’s in the pen for a while longer. Does this mean that he’s no longer simply bi but actually gay? Not at all, but to keep up certain habits, one needs to pay with whatever’s available! You know that old prison saying – “show some crack, get some crack.

Contracts

Sometimes they need studio backing for their pet projects.

Do you know how much coke he does!?

Acting isn't a real job, you just travel somewhere and hang out the whole day with like-minded, often interesting people. Actors are easily some of the most privileged people on the planet, literally getting money thrown at them for being good looking and minimal or non-existent skill/talent requirements. What else should he do? Lay on a beach somewhere? Gets old after a while. Especially someone that has struggled with drug abuse, it's smart to stay busy.

>We thought this much-loved actor had put his predilections behind him but he seems to have relapsed. Although he's now happily married, he's been cruising Craig's List for gay sex. A guy who placed an ad for anonymous sex was surprised when this actor turned up looking high as a kite and thrashed. He explained he'd been partying for a week and "didn't do this very often" but did not identify himself. Even with his facial hair and messed up looks he was easy to recognize. Let's hope he gets a grip before he goes off the deep end again.

its not their choice. its grinding out the last of his contract

I wish the internet and Hollywood never happened and great actors were all on the stage. Nobody should get paid multiple millions to throw a ball or play act. I say this while struggling with myself because I believe so much in capitalism, but I feel really let down when some smug faggot can spend week after week icing his knee for 2 hours, but still get paid more than most small business owners will ever see in a lifetime.

Well, Chris Evans was vocal about wrapping up his Marvel contract and moving on to directing. Then he did his own movie and capeshit started to be appealing again.

You'd be surprised at how celebs can piss away millions on mansions (which are exceptionally over-priced in Commiefornia plus high property taxes), drugs, cars, jewelery, and other shit.


You see the watch Damon's wearing? $300,000 Van Cleef and Arpels Midnight Planetarium; only 18 were made for the wole world. And he has quite a few other hyper-expensive watches to go with it

Then don't fucking watch it. Professional sport is possibly the only field were people doing the actual work and delivering results get paid the most. No team owner or sportswear company or whatever pay those millions for 'throwing a ball' out of the goodness of their heart, they actually are making money of off athletes' backs.

I don't watch it, but shitty athletes still make more than doctors, your advice did nothing! Why would you lie to me?!

>ywn be the guy who catches Matt walking to the bathroom at some event, pops him in the solar plexus and takes his watch
Feels bad

>he wants to try to mug Jason Bourne

I don't watch lacrosse and I'm pretty sure shitty lacrosse players make less then gardeners, therefore my advice works.

Sucker punch works on everyone if you do it right

ALIMONY

Cool, now let's do something about handegg and ballbat

That, but also their degenerate lifestyle makes them spend huge amounts of money. Look at Johnny Depp, he made a fortune with the stupid Disney movies, yet this moron managed to dilapidate all his money. Now he's doing POTC again. Also, many of them are just very greedy like Harrison Ford or Stallone and Arnie.

Yeah but these watches and houses are like an investment, it's never lost money since they can sell them back for practically the same price

Working is good for you. Doing things you don't entirely want to adds balance to your life. Adds some discipline. For the vast majority of people, it's the only way they sharpen the iron and most are still pieces of shit anyways. Imagine if they didn't have to work, do chores or be responsible.

Such a foreign concept.
Doing something you like

exactly when I walk around pretending to be something I’m not people call me a sociopath but as long as some Jew is making a buck off it it’s perfectly fine

Are you implying that none of that goes on?
Why are celebs so eager to jump on Marxist agendas if they have so much wealth? If you think that they do their work and go home like the rest of us you're a fool. Weinstein was a scapegoat for a much bigger collusion.

His house is still worth like 5 million. Sure it's not some ridiculous mansion but he still lives like a rich guy.

It's amazing to think that everytime this guy does a film he earns enough to support probably 20 people for a lifetime. I wonder what he spends it all on.

>Not everyone's a CP-Fanatic user.

Not everyone in normal life. In Hollywood though? They'll be whatever the boss needs them to be.

I hope his kid appreciates the hell he's going through.

A house worth 5 million is pretty middle class in L.A. and N.Y. tho.

Making a movie is fun as fuck.

You all get to play dress up with your millionare friends, ragging on each other for messing up a scene for the 20th time and then once you finally finish it the whole crew claps and cheers and you all go out for drinks at the end of the day.

Then you come back the next day and get to shoot shit about other movies or other shoots in far away lands and the other actors tell you about their lives. Its a pretty chill gig

For $300K, it looks like shit

Rich people are such tasteless chavs

And there are still actors who complain about the industry or discuss over shit like "Who is the first name in the credits?".

Loan watch for celebrity endorsement. Damon got paid. Celebs at awards shows do it for dresses, suit designers etc.

>capitalism

It's none of your fucking business how much money they make, and if you are so pissed off don't go and watch the movie.

Capitalism doesn't even exist in the West anyway, our economies are filled with pseudo-fascist industries and socialised programs. Should I pretend someone "made it" through capitalism if they started on the BBC?

Lastly, these guys give a fuck ton of people work; the movies they make are incredibly popular, and would provide income to thousands, if not tens of thousands of people. This doesn't even include cult films and loved classics which have fuelled economic opportunities for even more people.

He could obviously afford a lot more than that, and $5 million isn't anything grand in LA

it's along and tedious process, and you have to do a lot of things you don't want to do with a lot of people you don't want to spend time with. Publicity tours alone can be hellish. You seem to think everyone in film is superfriends with everyone else. Not like that anymore than it is in your industry.

>Nobody should get paid multiple millions to throw a ball or play act
They DON'T get paid millions to throw a ball or act.
They get paid millions to brings in many more millions.

Hello, Robert. How's your dad?

rdj keeps working to stay busy otherwise he'll snort it all away again

Yeah and "middle class" in LA and NY is rich to everyone else.

Yeah and working class in Alabama is rich to Somalis. The whole 'money' or 'class' thing isn't objective, you always need a point of reference, which is usually ones peers. And compared to his peers he lives a very pedestrian lifestyle, good for him.

SAG AFTRA

This man gets it

Because at the end of the day you always want more money, especially when your life expenses have a substantial grow on a yearly basis, especially with a family around

Can your dirtpoor brain understand that?

>Acting isn't a real job
t. Someone who doesn't know anything about it

Those fuckers aren't welcome here in Idaho. Let them continue to fuck up Cali and NY and Colorado. We don't want their kind here.

Why not do it? Its easy money and youre just riding the gravy train when youre at RDJ's level, plus its hard to live a lifestyle that is a step below the one youre currently living.

For example, would you stop working, assuming you are anyway, and go be a NEET with your parents? Just assume that youd be a NEET no problem for the sake of the argument but the answer is fuck no you wouldnt. You like your freedom, calling your own shots, buying what you want, not having to deal with your parents etc.

For celebs im sure that living in a regular sized home and not working would not only get boring but be lame as hell and not like they can get a regular job to keep busy unless theyre some literal who that didnt make it. Having people recognize you every day would be super fucking annoying.

>acting is a real job
t. A kid who wants to grow up and be an actor

Threaten to replace them with cg.

Some like what they do, some want more money, some want the prestige, some the fame. Take your pick.

Didn't he live for a quite a while in hotels? I remember reading that from somewhere.

>. Hell, go to the super-market and buy some groceries. Two bags are gonna cost you 60 or 70 bucks

Where the fuck are you shopping?

It is a real job, and it can be demanding as fuck. Insane hours, crazy call-times, not to mention having to actually ACT (fuck off Ellenpaigefags). Is it considered glamorous? Yeah, but that dont mean its easy, because it isnt or else everyone would do it.

contracts

They get bored and are too brainlet to do anything else.
