filmlover Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Denzel is the coolest badass around. When I'm approaching 60, I hope I'm as awesome as he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) Tom Cruise is by far the most bankable. WW at least. Not anymore. His last four films outside of Mission Impossible were all soft to mediocre WW. Edge of Tomorrow: 370 Oblivion : 286 Jack Reacher: 218 Knight and Day: 261 Valkyrie: 200 Not exactly huge grosses Edited January 6, 2015 by baumer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I've never understood the budgets on Denzel movies nor do I understand why he gets such a huge paycheck. The numbers for his films are there on Mojo, you can look them up. Has he done any film that has made 300 mill world wide? And if you look up his HV sales, they aren't much. So where do his films make the money that justifies these budgets? I don t get it either how he manages to get these enormous paychecks, 15-20m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 I don t get it either how he manages to get these enormous paychecks, 15-20m. They might offer him less but then Denzel does that stare he does where it's like "oh shit, I think this guy wants to fucking murder me" y'know? That's how he gets the big paychecks.

"So Denzel , about your paycheck,..............., yeah, 20 m coming Sir." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
