Dont think. Try em nd see which is more profitable for you
Re: Movie Industry Vs Music Industry by Orikinla(m): 5:00pm On Oct 26, 2011
The movie industry has always been more lucrative than the music industry since day one.

Imagine James Cameron making $2 billion from one single movie Avatar within two years!

Release date(s) December 10, 2009 (2009-12-10) (London premiere)
December 18, 2009 (2009-12-18) (United States)
Running time 162 minutes
171 minutes (Re-release
Country United States
Language English
Budget $237 million

Box office $2,782,275,172

No LP can even make that in 50 years.
All the LPs of The Beatles and Michael Jackson combined never made that.

In Nigeria, one movie made over N60 million within a year in Nigeria alone.
No Nigerian LP can make that amount even in three years.

Go to forbes.com and you will find out that in every top ten ranking whether men or women entertainers, you will find that no movie star made it. you find that the top 10 has talk show hosts, reality show and at least 4 musicians and even book writers (surprisingly)

check out the entertainment highest earning women on

http://www.forbes.com/sites/dorothypomerantz/2011/10/04/entertainments-highest-earning-women/

You will find Opera on top, Lady gaga, katy perry, beyoncy also made the top 10. i could not find any movie star like Angelina Jolie on top 10.

With music, it depends on whether you are just a performer or are a composer/writer too.

the musician on the women list are all performers.

Re: Movie Industry Vs Music Industry by gascoign1(m): 10:11pm On Oct 26, 2011
OP on what ground?? The movie industry favors the EP (Executive Producers) while the music industry is an individual tin and that makes your post not clear
Re: Movie Industry Vs Music Industry by blackmale(m): 12:40am On Oct 27, 2011
go for music first, if it doesnt work try movie, if both Bleep up, politics wont dissappoint you, grin grin
Re: Movie Industry Vs Music Industry by Nobody: 1:58am On Oct 27, 2011
It depends on where OP is talking about. In Nigeria, the music industry is more lucrative, not in terms of record sales but as a result of income from shows and performance. Nollywood actors end up singing or at least try to. In the states, it's vice versa.
