“On the one hand, you have these huge budget films that cost millions of dollars. They are effects driven, they don't have well known actors in them, and they are making money. Well, some of them are. One the other hand, you have Stallone and Statham, and guys like DeNiro and Pacino, and Costner, who are all trying to make movies about real people. They are interested in character driven projects.” PeopleTryingWellsRealCharacterHandsFilmGuyActorsKnownMillionsEffectsHugeCostProjectsDollarsDrivenMaking MoneyBudgetsWell Known Author:Dolph Lundgren

“The same applies to the music and film industries. Until the heads of the labels start wanting to make money rather than creating controversy, tension, and excuses about why piracy is making the job so hard that no one could do it but them - and oh by the way, they need a raise to really focus in on the fight - the music industry is going to have a very tough time of it.” WayNeedsHardJobsFilmFightingFocusIndustryCreatingToughRaisesExcuseLabelsMaking MoneyTensionControversyTough TimesMusic IndustryFilm IndustryPiracy Author:Mark Cuban
