I get ice cube point but the movie was unintentionally beyond successful and it would’ve been the right thing to do to help those actors after doing so well. I read somewhere it made over half a Billie, that’s amazing, a $20k check for the cast would’ve been more than enough
What lying ass nikka told you this? :mjlol:

that's a slippery slope...in a world where contracts are everything and everything is unionized everyone wants their cut you can't just pass money around like a rich single uncle at christmas

where does it stop? the director assistants, the grips, the producers, the agents, the colorists, the editors, they will all want more too

in this world you don’t get what you deserve…you get what you negotiate

Chris has always been a little suspect cuz he kept changing his story on why he didn't want to come back and play Smokey. It was religious reasons, then later on it was because he wasn't paid enough for the first, then he said he didn't want to do the same thing over despite doing 3 Rush Hour films that he had no problem cursing in.

He got a taste of that Rush Hour/5th Element money and wanted to change up audiences. Seemed like Cube predicted the future with "True to the Game"
I mean Chris was hanging around King Mike at the time..so it made sense he didn't want to smoke weed or be known as a stoner perhaps.

This is the reason Why u see certain celebrities just do things solo and don’t put anyone on

John Witherspoon had no complaints but got paid for his next 2 appearances

guarantee the actors for scary movie 1 didn’t get paid much, same for other small films

I mean who does that though?:mjgrin:

If the contract says they get points then they get points. Jack Nicholson made it known he wanted the percentage of box office revenue on Batman 1989.

Cube says they were paid to scale...

Sounds like a classic case of getting paid and agreeing to a number...but the project becomes a smash so they get upset because they didn't have the foresight to know the project would be a hit.
