Who can explain this normie behavior?

"You wanna go see X movie?"
"Who's in that?"

"Do you want some fresh baked bread?"
"Does it mushroom over on the top?"

Let cut the BS. Many movies live and die via their star power. Why do some actors get paid millions of dollars, and some get paid peanuts (possibly literally) because some actors names alone bring in an audience.

I don't know if it's "normie behavior" as much as it is just Hollywood culture.

And this not new, this is not an evil of social media or Disney, it's been a thing since golden age of film, sometimes the Actor got top billing over the movie, sometimes an actor is put on the promotional material even if they only appear in a small part of the movie.

Like it or not many people go to movies based on the actors in them.

It could be a thing where they don't remember the movie by name, but they recall that "the new movie with John Smith looked interesting" so when you say "oh, it has John Smith in it" then they'll remember that yes, they did want to see that new movie.

Ive never seen or heard anyone ask that

I know what the question is; it's the answer I'm asking about.

^Worst offender these days has to be The Rock. He is literally The Rock in every movie.

Some people enjoy the work of certain actors.
