as if DC is doing much better LOL in fact they are doing much much worse :fan:


but yeah you have silly negative moaners everywhere sadly :idc:



even Ms Marvel, 775k people watched it, well i found it very enjoyable


She Hulk was a nice attempt at sitcom vibes

Nicky91 15-07-2023 03:45 PM

i still have to watch Secret Invasion, but anything with Samuel L Jackson and also our current top oscars actress Olivia Colman should be considered quality tbh


rather wish those critics would be harsher on HBO Max or Netflix, more HBO on taking way too long with new seasons for House of the Dragon, The Last of us, they are your ways of making profits and they put so many years between seasons 1 and 2 :facepalm: (even long before the writers and actors strike that is)



everyone is affected by this strike, not just Disney, but every streaming service ;)


good thing Disney has many bingewatch worthy older series too (Grey's Anatomy, Bones, Angel, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Once Upon a Time)


and i'm sure this strike won't last for many many years either, i mean a solution must come soon, because no new content is bad for everyone

no money for the actors, writers, producers, no income for cinema's, no new profitable content for streaming services


and tbh we don't need AI acting, did we have that bull**** 20 years or 30 years ago, NOPE and everything was fine


get rid of AI usage in hollywood, and i'm sure this strike can end

Hollywood reached an agreement with the Studio's


now just the union left to also come to an agreement


more pay for all actors apparently


so once union also agreed to these terms, they can go back to work, after more than 150 days of strike

Nicky91 26-09-2023 08:40 AM

i hope they can indeed continue with their work soon


lots of new films, series still to come


many MCU new projects
- the Blade reboot
- the new Captain America


but also post-production work for Alien: Romulus, so they can begin releasing first promo's, revealing character details etc


The Santa Clauses second season to go in post-production so it is done in time before christmas season (filming of which already complete)


Star Trek Prodigy to resume its negotiations of a new home for its series and continuation with season 2 (all episodes of which already completed, into final stages of production)

Hollywood’s writers strike was declared over after nearly five months Tuesday night when board members from their union approved a contract agreement with studios, bringing the industry at least partly back from a historic halt in production.

Is it written in a way that comes across as Propaganda?

Because personally blatant Propaganda shouldn't be being endorsed, especially if it's potentially extreme viewpoints, which we all know about Religious extremism.

bots 28-09-2023 03:48 AM

Arista needs to update the thread title to indicate the strike is over

Hollywood studios are giving one more week to negotiations with SAG-AFTRA before they are ready to pack it in for the rest of the year, TheWrap has learned.

According to an individual with knowledge of their thinking, the studios believe that if they can’t reach a deal in the next week with the Screen Actors Guild, which has been on strike since July 14, then no new production will be able to start before 2024.

If that is the case, the studios further believe, then the fall television season is lost, and new movies won’t be able to come out until next summer. In this scenario, early November would be the drop-dead date to salvage any ability to put television or movies into production. Once the calendar hits Thanksgiving, it is unlikely any project would begin production, pushing off everything to the new year, this individual said, and killing the studios’ incentive to push for a deal.

All that puts significant pressure on the talks going on this week.

The CEOs from four of the major entertainment conglomerates – Disney’s Bob Iger, Netflix’s Ted Sarandos, Warner Bros. Discovery’s David Zaslav and NBCUniversal’s Donna Langley – will meet anew on Thursday with SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher and chief negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland and their legal teams in an effort to reach a contract.

The negotiations restarted this week on Tuesday after the CEOs walked away two weeks ago over a new demand that SAG-AFTRA receive a $1-per-subscription fee from streaming divisions on top of raises and other benefits that had been negotiated between the two sides. The studios considered that proposal, along with two previous ones seeking a percentage of all streaming revenue, as a non-starter.

Meanwhile the CEOs, who are negotiating on behalf of the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP), presented their counter-offer to the guild on Tuesday.

The guild decided to skip further bargaining on Wednesday so they could discuss the offer.

An insider familiar with the studio side of talks said there was some surprise among the AMPTP ranks when the SAG-AFTRA negotiating committee requested the delay, but they are taking it as a hopeful sign that there will be progress when the two sides do meet again.

Tuesday’s meeting was the first since Oct. 11, when the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers, which represents the studios in contract talks, abruptly walked away from talks. The primary disagreement behind that decision concerned SAG-AFTRA’s proposed streaming revenue-sharing plan, which AMPTP leaders characterized as a “levy” on streaming services.

SAG-AFTRA estimated its proposal to average to about 57 cents per streaming subscriber, with that revenue being paid to the guild who would in turn distribute it to performers whose work appears on the streaming service. The AMPTP, which says the fee in the actors’ union proposal actually was a $1-per-subscription fee, rejected the proposal in a statement released on Oct. 11, calling it an “untenable economic burden.”

The AMPTP is pushing for a viewership bonus model similar to the one agreed to with the WGA and had believed when talks first resumed that it would have been sufficient to reach a deal with the actors guild. But SAG-AFTRA believes that the revenue-sharing plan is a better model to ensure increased pay for performers throughout the union’s membership for the work they do on streaming films and TV shows.

A SAG-AFTRA representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

writers are already back to work so while they can't film anything new now for the time being, scripts can already be made ;)


and tbh the writers strike also took a while before they reached an agreement so i think the actors and the union will also reach an agreement (idk what day but i don't think those actors want to be on strike like forever)

official now: Actors Strike is finally over as they reached a deal with the studios, more salary

Quote:

LOS ANGELES (AP) — On Thursday, for the first time in more than six months, neither Hollywood’s actors nor its writers will be on strike.

The long-awaited clearing in the industry’s stormiest season in decades comes as a deal was reached late Wednesday to end what was, at nearly four months, the longest strike ever for film and television actors.

The three-year contract must be approved by the board of the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists and its members in the coming days. But union leadership declared that the strike will end at 12:01 a.m. on Thursday, putting all of the parts of production back into action for the first time since spring.
