...When money is tight, it's also a good time for Hollywood's bulletproof brands, like Pixar (Wall E), Will Smith (Hancock) and Ben Stiller (Tropic Thunder). "Whether it's an analgesic or a motion picture, you're putting your money into something familiar," says former studio executive David Weitzner, who teaches at the University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts.
