Yeah, it is sad how much these celebrities are paid. They contribute almost nothing to society in the long run, and they are paid $17 million per film, while the most highest paid doctors or engineers can only hope to probably pull down $1 million per year. Then people wander why celebrities tend to be unhappy with various addictions. I'm not a communist/socialist, but they make too much money for very little effort. I think they should be paid handsomely, but $17 million per film is ridiculous.
