      Deadpool made almost a billion dollars. I’m guessing most people haven’t spent 2 years being the person to make something that big and relevant and also got paid less than .03 percent of its revenue…

          No one said they’re the only person to make a movie, but they literally decide how the movie will turn out, both large-scale and in the details.

      It turns out that most Lemmyites are actually pretty wealthy, and hate having that fact pointed out, hence your downvotes. You’re totally right, though.
