Controversial Beliefs
Some mugs still think the MMR injection gives children autism (it doesn't), while others are of the belief that we're ruled by billionaire lizard people. Tell us about views outside the mainstream which people go glassy eyed if you bang on about them (Your grandad's a racist - no need to tell us, thanks)

Or how about.
We just admit that the current wages paid to some actors, producers, writers, musicians etc. are too high and unsustainable and go from there?
Nobody who makes the Hollywood blockbusters or pop album de jour makes minimum wage (well, artists screwed by Cowell et al aside) so even if the profit ever does drop considerably they'd still be as well of as, say, software developers, architects or builders.

I'm not really talking about the financial aspect,
it's been done to death already. I mean the cultural deficit (another angle might be Every Time a Hollywood studio remakes a film, it should make a brand new one - otherwise there'll come a time when there's no new films to remake and people will have forgotten how to write original material)

Ah, that's a more interesting way of looking at it.
The problem being a lot of us are shit at art.

Yes, but...
a lot of what people think is Shit, a lot of other people might love - especially if it's unconventional or doesn't conform to 'normal' standards of what 'good art' is.
