*calm eyes* Do you watch any television dramas?  I recently learned that Hugh laurie is the highest paid actor ever for a tv drama.
gpt
I do and I really enjoy them. Also does Hugh make the high end of 6 figures per episode in house alone?
human
He makes $700,000 for every episode of House.  House was a great show and all but there have been other great shows out there too.
gpt
True. I also really enjoy shows by jim carrey. Too bad he no longer does dramas since he feels that it projects too much negativity
human
I've heard that too and it is sad because he has done some good work in some dramatic roles.  He might be interested to learn that the Greeks say there are two masks for drama- tragedy and comedy.
gpt
Regardless of the negativity, tragedy which is prevalent in drama is a powerful tool to evoke deep emotions. It is an art and it is unfortunate he no longer does dramas. I believe he still does comedies though

It's weird how actors are.  Michael Caine, a great actor, got into acting simply because of the girls at his school taking drama class.
gpt
I mean his motivations weren't pure, but he is a good actor nonetheless. 
human
That's very true.  I just meant Michael Caine didn't take it very seriously and look how he does and Jim carrey takes it probably too seriously.  Actors are definitely different.
gpt
*relaxed posture* I agree. Just out of curiosity, do you enjoy any other forms of entertainment like sports?
human
i do like some sports.  I watched a little of the FIFA world cup last year.  It was interesting to see it in Russia. DId you watch any of it?
gpt
Parts of it. I am excited to see the city qatar will build for the world cup since it still doesn't exist.
human
I've heard about that too! It will be very interesting.  I am really impressed that they are building an entire city!
gpt
Although they there is no economic gains for hosting the fifa world cup, I am sure there are incentives like prestige, tourism, and coverage to list a few
human
*hands at sides* I imagine you are right about that.  Soccer is extremely popular.  It makes more money than football and some other sports combined.
gpt
It is strange though that the US has performed so amazingly at the world cup so consistently over the years despite other sports like golf or football being more popular in the us
human
I know what you mean.  Most people in the country prefer other sports and yet the soccer team has never placed below third place in the womens world cup.
gpt
I mean it is played by 250 million players in over 200 countries. That is a lot of people
human
That definitely is.  Did you know that americans call it soccer as a slang word for association football?  How did they get soccer from that I wonder?
gpt
They probably started calling it soccer so people wouldn't confuse association football and american football
