daily bizcard 037: ashton kutcher

Send to Kindle

Today’s “Daily Biz­card”, “I’m Not Get­ting”, goes to movie-celeb-turned-Twitter-celeb, Ash­ton Kutcher.

This is a colo­ri­zed ver­sion of a car­toon I once gave to my old friend, Lee Tho­mas, the guy who pretty much single-handedly brought Web 2.0 gee­kery to the Bri­tish film industry. He works for Simon “Shaun Of The Dead” Pegg’s pro­duc­tion com­pany these days…

The film busi­ness is a funny old thing. Ima­gine a large pyra­mid scheme with a few rock stars like Ash­ton or Quen­tin Taran­tino on the top, with HUGE LEGIONS of slave labor/waiters on the bot­tom, with a thin layer of weird-ass, para­noid “Neither/Nor’s” sepa­ra­ting the two.This is just as true in Lon­don as it is in Hollywood.

Even at his level, well… Ash­ton wasn’t always famous, he too was a mem­ber of the “HUGE LEGIONS” at one point, so he should be able to relate to the car­toon. Rock on.

    This cap­tu­res my fee­lings com­ple­tely. As someone trying to break into the “busi­ness” I keep asking myself if I’m sure I want to do busi­ness with “those peo­ple”. Yes, I do.
