Pacino: "The Worse the Script, the More I Get Paid"

Veteran actor Al Pacino finds it baffling when he reads movie scripts - because the worse the script, the more the job pays. The Oscar winner insists top actors make very little money when they accept parts based on a decent script. He tells Variety, "I can almost state this is a fact. The worse the script is, the more money you're offered. Show me a bad script, and I will show you a big payday. Conversely, show me a really great script and forget it. You're lucky if you don't have to pay for it."

haha, i think this probably is true. Why else would there be so many CRAP big budget movies full of such famous actors?

Actually no that is smart because movies with a dumb script make big cash if they have big names in it. Its all about knowing your fan base and economics of hollywood (which really suck)

Al Pacino, I think pays to be honest. He's a legend and there are not that many people in Hollywood that would say whether or not the script sucked. But this is way Al Pacino is on my top actor's list of all time...
