Wonder why Disney needs more money? Reportedly giving Kristen Bell,
Josh Gad and Idina Menzel $60M EACH to be doing Frozen 3 & 4. 3 actors, $180 million dollars for 2 movies, for just their voices. That's NBA-level of silly money.

Disney will probably make 10X from the movies and merchandise associated
with them, so it seems like a safe investment to me.

Well, Frozen was the last decent thing Disney did, and they know it
Everything after has ranged from derivative to awful.

That's about $1 for every time I've heard her sing Let It Go
I've got two young daughters and a third on the way, so I'm sure I'll be very acquainted with the songs in these movies too.

I think the decision of worth will be made later
It all depends on what the movie makes

Basically $20m for voice and $10m to be walking billboards per movie
The movie marketing still uses the actors a lot for promotions and fan engagement. With the inflation hitting every other part of the economy, the actor pay is probably totally normal now.

Actor pay is funny right now. High end franchises make more than ever,
whereas everything else just makes lowest end of scale possible because it's just straight to streaming.

She's super attractive, seems nice as heck, and very funny.
I wonder if she's actually AI.

I had no idea who she was, but now I understand the 60 million. That's a
heck of a voice I'm hearing... "Come to me coach..."

just look at what Disney pays talking heads on ESPN/ABC
absurd. No one on tv commands an audience deserving of that pay these days. They are expendable.

Are they paid big bucks because they command an audience, or because...
...they say what they're told to say?
