Tom Cruise Booting Signals Sea Change in Hollywood?

This is a very interesting article about the Tom Cruise booting from Paramount.

To some, Redstone's comments signal a major change in Hollywood.

"There is a definitive, palpable change in
climate," one source at a major Hollywood talent agency said.

"Stars' demands have gotten so over-the-top, and they've gotten so
petulant. And the studios, because they're part of publicly traded
companies, have to maintain quarterly results, I do think they are less
intimidated by the stars," he said.

I think this means that the stars won't run the studios as much as they did in the past. Perhaps paychecks will start getting lighter now that the conglomerates are starting to fight back against the largesse demanded by the stars. This will be especially true of the moonbat Celebes like Cruise who act crazy (Oprah chair incident,) give the studio ultimatums that effect their other properties (Getting Comedy Central to axe a South Park episode,) and generally drain off a bunch of money and get a disappointing return in the process (MI3.)
