Stephen King : On Our Side

Many people consider Stephen King to be the Everybody Loves Raymond of Literature. That being said, he has some very good points to make about star power vs story power. He does make the somewhat dubious claim that Will Smith is the last real movie star, but just force yourself to keep reading after that claim and you'll be plesantly suprised.

Eventually, maybe people will listen to him and figure out that slapping J-Lo's name on some entertainment won't make it as good a product. That they instead need to make a good product and leave her name off it.
