I would like to see a revolution in the entire entertainment field based on
something like this. Instead of paying an actor 20 mil to make a picture,
pay the actor(s) based on the revenue that the motion picture makes (a la
Nicolson in “Batman” (iirc) )

The problem with that is the “creative” accounting the studios use to show that
movies don’t actually make money. Spider-Man grossed over $400 million and yet
the studio told Stan Lee that it barely broke even.

Many things have to change, all the way from the top down. I was hoping that the
small independant movie trend a few years back would really take off and cause a
motion picture revolution, but that seems to have lost steam.
