See how your income stacks up against Tom Hanks or Jodie Foster.

Never quite understood the earning power of stars. I can't remember seeing a film or a performance that really deserved more than the average stage actor and probably less. Then I'm not a cinema fan. I prefer a story that I can believe in rather than some pretty boy or girl prancing about in such an unbelievable way.

I dont think there is a single person who is worth what they make. These days most movies are effects anyway, the stars are not busting there humps like they did back in the 50's 60's.
I mean Jennifer Anaston made 1 million per episode of friends... WTF! a show that was only roughly 22 minutes long. And Steinfield oh dont get me going lol

From what I understand because of the influx of reality television programming and not having to pay those people anything at all. Stars salaries are going to go way down.
No idea how they are going to change those who are already stars. I believe people are going to make what they are worth.
If you've ever seen a taping of any show out there, it sure isn't much.
