  Tons of people listen to audio books too. There's usually only one voice (actor), but they're pretty good at giving each character their own distinct voice and personality.

  Good actors know how to do many roles and convince you they're a different person.

    And yet movies don’t do that, do they? Imagine how much money they would save.

      There are plenty of movies where the same actor either plays or voices multiple characters. Austin Powers is a good example.

      Bro, why you being so hostile.

      People can enjoy multiple, different mediums with different ways of communicating artistic vision.

      While having unlimited actors can be great, it doesn't mean the opposite situation is automatically bad and unenjoyable. Nor does having a great cast and budget guarantee a good movie. There are so many instances of fans saying "I liked the book better" than the movie/TV adaptation.

      You gotta let your own assumptions be challenged a bit.
