Writer's and Actor's Strike 2023: Aaaaand Scene...That's a Wrap!

[beenz]

YJ got renewed for a third season. I imagine they would have wanted a 2024/25 release

depends on how long the work stoppage is. I mean season 1 dropped in 2021 and season 2 dropped in 2023. so I didn't think season 3 would hit in 2024 unless we're talking 4thq 2024, which would mean they'd likely have plenty of time.

That doesn’t make things better. No rewrites, no development.

The 2007 one directly impacted that second Craig James Bond, think even had Craig himself trying to write it lol

Dumb question , but how does this negatively impact series/movies? (Besides them being delayed)

Can't writers just pick up where they left off? seems like scripts get altered when there's a strike.

You know what pisses me off the most is that there's plenty of freelance writers who can ghostwrite these shows not union but Hollywood don't hire these folks in cases like this.

Yeah, not sure when they planned to film. the last strike was about 3 months. Things are much different now and I wouldn’t be surprised if it goes on longer. Someone mentioned how Netflix is good until the new year with shows. Who knows about other streaming services.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Hollywood loses more money this time around. These studios would rather lose money instead of paying the cats who make the industry what it is. Without a script there is no movie or show.

For tv shows (not talk shows) It stunts the progress on stories and creativity. Imagine a ball player getting taken out in the first quarter while he’s on a hot streak and not put back in until the final minutes of the last quarter.

It also stops production. No rewrites on the set, no development of stories and characters.

they might try to get slick and have fans write stuff for "contests".

 

[O.Red]

They finished filming the final season of Cobra Kai, right?









RIGHT?!?

They only just started writing it a few weeks ago

@Bryan Danielson @Peter Popoff pay up!!!

This dude @Neo The Resurrected ONE doing everything is his power to Sabatoge the mouse

 

[humminbird]

you cannot hire non union writers or use AI scripts and get the same results
studios need to pay

It's a good thing Arcane already finished it's script for season 2 and most of their people are in house.


Didn't this writer strike happen about a decade or so ago and was one of the biggest reasons why that heros series went down in fire?
