The fault isn't the movie stars, the fault is ourselves for paying the movie stars. We are them, they are us. Sorry, but I'm just not seeing the "fault" here. I'm also not seeing the logic. Gwyneth has done nothing wrong by choosing an acting career, and working hard to be successful in that career, but I'm doing something wrong by supporting her career by paying her to do things I like?

I think a point i was making further up in the thread is that big name movies are no longer all that profitable for studios. Which is a totally valid point.
