thats what I told SM - they spent more on Woody then the 3 lead actors combined.

by the same token, they don't need big names to make more, so there's no value added. -- nm - loosilu Mar 26, 07:28 8
- except Twilight went for Dakota Fanning and Micheal Sheen - so... -- nm - Pippy Mar 26, 07:29 6
  - they're not a-list yet. -- nm - loosilu Mar 26, 07:32 4
    - seriously? I thought Dakota Fanning was - -- nm - Pippy Mar 26, 07:32 3
      - in the past we have spent many boards arguing over what A-list means. :) - loosilu Mar 26, 07:34
      - not in my mind. - groiny Mar 26, 07:34 1
        
        okay, I will concede -- nm - Pippy Mar 26, 07:35
  - who? nm -- nm - groiny Mar 26, 07:30
- I wonder if stars will take less on the upfront just to get in? I'm not sure this ever happens but... -- nm - Pippy Mar 26, 07:29
IMO, big time people would be a distraction. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 26, 07:26 3
- I'd say there's no one in his list outside ScarJo who moves the needle above what they currently have. - Will Hunting Mar 26, 07:30
- IMO - they don't need the big names for the upcoming roles - they seem to be doing fine without them. - Pippy Mar 26, 07:28 1
  - well, that too, and especially using HG as a base, they would not get a ton of screen time. nm -- nm - groiny Mar 26, 07:29
