I agree I took it too far, and I didn't mean that to be so derogatory. I'm in the business so I know breh. Just like you, but not on your side of things.

So I know it ain't sweet, easy, or a piece of cake - whether that's the hard working folks on the ground in all below the line positions who are out there before shyt starts and out there well after its over, to the actors who gotta "act" depressed for 30 takes across 12 hours, reset after reset. Shyt isn't sweet like you said.

But I was just overall trying to say that in general, the money is only a part of it. The other benefits they get from being actors can't be covered by money from other places. Emotional benefits, ego, all of it is a part of it.

But I did go too far calling 'em carnies

Them executives didn’t just bend the knee. They spread their entire butt cheeks..

How so? I dont see anything in that release that says Sag got the streaming revenue share they wanted and held out so long for. The streaming and AI use was the biggest things.

SAG wanted a straight up revenue share, doesnt seem like they got it. Studios were always gonna bump up all the payrates.

Without revealing too much, what is it exactly is your role on set, fam? Writer? Film crew? Coordinator?
