The other issue is about an actors standing within the acting community.
If they are considered a guaranteed box office draw then they have a minimum fee. And the more hits they have, the bigger the fee.
Plus there is also healthy competition between actors as to who commands the bigger fee.
To be honest, it's the agents that negotiate the fees. It's not the actors demanding huge salaries.
Same happens in the world of sport...people being paid what we would consider to be obscene amounts of money.
And as you said, their work does not equate to the vast amount of money they are paid. It's a different world to the likes of us working stiffs...
