Okay? I don't know what this has to do with my post. You describe how you operate. I described how 99.99999% of everyone else does. They see Thing They Know, they pay money to see more of Thing They Know. It's the same reason why the laundry up the street from me when I was a kid had Winnie the Pooh stuff painted all over the walls. It's also why Disney sues the shit out of people for doing things like that.

There hasn't been anything special--acting talent or whatnot--about actors and actresses for decades and decades. That's not what they're there for. And this new voodoo isn't using corpses out of sheer utility. They're using these packages, limitations and all, because of the cache the actor-as-icon brings to the table. Thing They Know.
