On some level, isn't it very capitalist?
The studio has outlayed dollars from before the start of production, and they don't get any of that back until distribution.
If a star gets hurt and they can't shoot, getting returns are delayed.
If that pushes out a quarter or even fiscal year, that could have consequences for them. That assumes that there are any ongoing costs like rented equipment or properties.
Therefore, the most capitalist thing to do is to minimize risk by hiring dime-a-dozen stuntmens to do the stunts.
First rule of capitalism is that water flows down... Is Tom said he is the star, everyone else can suck it
He got the market ✊
The first rule of capitalism is that anyone is replaceable. Capital is not. We are all valued less than liquid funds.
Thank you daddy
