Well Disney plus launching that year couldnt have hurt.

Set themselves up better than most other studios.

David Prowse himself has claimed that he wasn't paid residuals for Jedi because Lucasfilm claimed the movie hasn't actually made a profit.

Now, he could be lying, but from what's been written about Hollywood Accounting, it's not that far-fetched.

Edit: I see you edited. You ****er.

sorry, im usually quicker but thats when im at a keyboard. this phone is a shitshow

Royalties are part of how actors get paid.

Apparently a lot of the tricks revolve around profits, and making a profitable movie look unprofitable.

Actors get around that these days by demanding fixed amounts irrespective of how much a movie makes. But of course it takes star power to demand bigger sums.

That's why RBJ negotiating a bigger payout for the new Spidey actor and others is such a big deal, he never needed to see him paid six or seven figures. That's just the kind of guy RBJ is.

Oh look, suing is all trendy now...

Gerard Butler sues for $10 million in profits from ‘Olympus Has Fallen’

Butler sued Nu Image/Millennium Films, claiming that the producer had understated domestic and foreign receipts by tens of millions of dollars and had failed to report $8 million that went to its own executives.

The lawsuit comes a day after Scarlett Johansson filed a blockbuster compensation lawsuit against the Walt Disney Co., claiming that the simultaneous release of “Black Widow” on Disney Plus cut into her box office participation.

Let's see who's lining up next and calling their lawyers...

Trump is a pig.

Still, how you gonna beef about a movie released 8 years ago, this chick opened a Pandora's box of shite for studios...

But oh well screw them for trying to be greedy.

But what did the contract say? I mean if the contract didn't include Disney+ and only for theaters, then...what's the issue? The contract is what matters and what is stated on it right?

“Lefty”?!

As a left-leaning centrist, I take issue with this type of slander and name calling. Yes, for all intents and purposes, Trump is akin to that of a pig in that he has little disregard for humanity and morals in general. He also looks like a pink hog.

^ Urm sure.

Thatcher was a good woman and a good politician just like Trump and Biden. I’ve supported both Trump and Biden in their time as president because I support the president, period.
