It seems like what he finds myopic is that actors can’t promote their new shows / seasons while the strike goes on, thus increasing the chances they will get cancelled and actors / crew will lose their jobs once the strike ends. But he did call the strike as a whole a reductive negotiating tactic without offering any…

You talk about empathy, but it’s so strange to me that you look at an actor, and all you can see is the worst thing they’ve ever done. What a sad way to engage with others and life in general.

They’ve never explained recasts before (Terence Howard -> Don Cheadle, Ed Norton -> Mark Ruffalo). Why would they need to “explain” this one? Just recast the character and move on.

Going forward she will be given a lightweight plastic toy mic to lip sync into.

It might have been the other rando: “the microphone reportedly hit the thrower—who had tossed a drink on Cardi B—but then bounced off and hit someone else”.

In the case of Carbi B vs some rando who can’t be asked to be an adult and not throw shit at people on stage. I, Judge Nilus, declare writ of “Fuck around and find out”. Case dismissed

How about just a note reading that Kang died on his way to his home universe?

Every once in a while, a work of art comes along that’s so influential you’re able to divide popular culture into before and after that work. That’s what Reuben’s created with Pee-wee.

Without Pee-wee’s Playhouse there’d be no Simpsons to Nicktoons. Even today, you can still feel the kind of energy and postmodern humor…

Dude was brilliant in every role. Even his turn in the original Buffy the Vampire Slayer elevated a largely forgettable movie. It’s a shame all his talent was overshadowed by the fact that he pulled pud in a smut house.

Why, tonight’s the anniversary!

I don’t care anymore.

This must be upsetting for fans lacking the intellectual maturity to separate art from artists.

you cared enough to reply

I support any production that abides by the terms of SAG-AFTRA’s waivers, as well as the WGA’s terms. The strikes have put a lot of people out of work - not just writers and actors, but the grips, caterers, and production assistants waiting idly while production is paused. The longer the strikes go on, the more…

It defeats the purpose of a boycott to continue boycotting people who’ve already agreed to your requests like the producers of these movies have.

Exactly. If anything, these are “scabs” on the studio side.

Exactly. If MRC is heeding SAG-AFTRA rules, then they SHOULD be producing films! They’ll be making movies and earning money while the big studios can’t.

Yes, if by “a lot of actors,” you mean “2.09% of SAG-AFTRA members.” Because that’s how many voted against the strike. 2.09%. The rest of them know that if they don’t win this, there won’t be jobs left for them to work.

This is what strike funds are for.

Yes, and framing like this doesn’t help:

Sarah Silverman is a dumbass who doesn’t understand that these projects were approved because they already meet the standards that SAG-AFTRA requested. The goal of the strike isn’t to stop movies from being made because we hate movies, it’s to hurt big companies pockets by halting their productions until they fix how…
