  1. why would Snyder want to deal with Zaslav when he's getting all the monies from Netflix?
  2. Hello y'all. Hope you guys had a good Thanksgiving week. I just wanted to share something that I produced and it was directed by our very own Jay Hollywood. A short 3 minute horror film. After waking from a nightmare, artist Scarlet is pursued by a malevolent figure eerily reminiscent of her latest drawing. If you can give it a watch (share, comment, like, etc.) and give it a grade on letterboxd, it would be greatly appreciated! I think the short film turned out excellent and I am very proud of it! https://letterboxd.com/film/the-drawing-2023/
  3. Okay then using other properties that were able to take breaks maybe isn't the best comparison then?
  4. That's not how it works. AMPTP can't just say fuck it cause their productions will be shot down. What will happen is likely a week to a month more before a new negotiating committee meets with the AMPTP and they try to figure out a new deal that CAN pass.
  5. They all took a break to get out of their funk. Doctor Who had a 16 year break. Star Trek sorta had a 4 year break (between ending of Enterprise and the Star Trek reboot movie) but 7 year break between the final TNG movie and the reboot movie. There was an 8 year break between Batman & Robin and Batman Begins.
  6. I would wait for a trailer? I don't see how you can say something has hype or not before the marketing begins.
  7. Almost every company is in debt. Especially movie studios. Just because you have debt doesn't mean jack shit.
  8. Video games are a very different product and they release bad video games all the time. Like ALL the time. Just look at Gollum or most Square Enix products. Nobody sets out to make a shitty movie. But hey we do have some users here who do set out to shit post. And that's how we get shit takes like "hollywood needs to learn from a completely different industry".
  9. Yes 2020 crashed but 2021 did better than 2020 so yes cannastop was wrong.
  10. I mean SAG leadership is made up of actors, no? Actors are known for being a tad dramatic compared to writers
  11. It was never going to be that easy. But MAYBE it does show AMPTP is more willing to actually listen to what SAG is asking for and why now which would lead the road to a good deal for SAG.
  12. WGA revealed what they asked for in percentages from the start, what AMPTP offered, and AMPTP met them in the middle. That's how a compromise works and probably what the WGA expected to actually get from the start. WGA was never asking what SAG was largely because they knew they could never get it. Maybe SAG can.
  13. Sheridan knows it's a team sport. Some people call him power hungry. But he's a good man. Oh wait this isn't a Babylon 5 post.
  14. But writers can share it amongst themselves. So at least within the industry it will be very public secret.
  15. Some apply to new seasons, some are immediate, some based on the date. Depends on the term.
  16. Shouldn't the goal then of any service be to provide compelling enough content to take their attention away from their phone?
  17. Usually I'll only background noise a show with no real plot between episodes (like Cold Case) or one I've already seen and am pretty familiar with (so I can pay attention during my favorite bits). Even with Cold Case, if it's my first watch, it'll be more primary screen than not unless it's bad. I'm bad at multitasking lol.
  18. They are also very dumb because they don't realize how often they actually are the primary screen.
  19. They had a countdown on the trailer that actually counted down as time passed. (I also think even though not everyone did the double screening, Barbiehammer ensured both movies had super high awareness which obviously led to more interest).
  20. My first introduction to Margot Robbie was on the ABC flop series Pan Am. ABC spent $10 million on the pilot which was a lot of money at the time. Kinda crazy following her career since then tbh. I feel like I've followed her since she came to Hollywood from the start.
  21. I remember AMC had like a cheap movie day a year or so ago and the theater was the most packed I've seen it until like this weekend lol. I think the theaters would love that. But the studios are too greedy.
