Are Stars Going Nova? Part III

"...stars are essentially worthless - and absolutely essential."

- William Goldman

In the past, and on more than one occasion, I've discussed the changing nature of the entertainment business, and the potential collapse of the star system, or at least the complete upheaval of stars as we see them today. The end of stars as an idea is not terribly new, but the changing nature of film as a medium, society as a whole and our relationship with media in general give greater credence to (and new angles on) old arguments. Now that we're fully committed to a lack-luster summer at the B.O. the Hollywood PTB (Powers-That-Be) are genuinely open to exploring new business-models and market trends.
