      I mean, it probably will be cheaper while also being a logical move for what could be a dope passion project.

      Good movies don’t need big name actors to be good, they need a good story, good world, and a cast that can pull off the immersion with a director that knows how to harness it all together. Big name actors are just a draw and I would argue a lot of the time they don’t help so much as ruin immersion a bit.

      Like in nineteen ninety-eight when the undertaker threw mankind off the top of hell in a cell.

          Well, yeah. But that’s an exception to the rule not the rule itself.

              Yeah but you could say the same about a lot of people. Doesn’t mean it’s a “good movie” so much as a lot of people want to see that person in a thing and would pay regardless of what the thing is.

              That’s the attitude that gives us the race to the bottom in creative work
