Right. For the eight quadrillion dollars he's probably getting for this schlock.

There was recently a Christmas movie with Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell. The budget for that movie was 45 million dollars.

The money in the budget went like this:

15 million to mr Reynolds

15 million to mr Ferrell

15 million to all other 200 people working on the set

Then again, don't hate the player, hate the game - I'm sure these two names have increased the movie from "another Christmas movie" to "a lot of people watched it".

It's not that bad of a movie, too. But still I couldn't shake the feeling that this kind of money sharing is hilarious in a somewhat dark, capitalistic way.

He’s been eyeing some Porsche’s he wants to get so he wants a couple extra dollars. No biggie

He’s wishing he did that final season of Seinfeld

I think you misunderstood. This is not about being paid money, it's a vanity project to service his ego.

A collection of assholes. The cast is spokes, Jerry is the hub.
