Disputes over residuals that flow from new revenue streams have been at the center of every major film and TV strike in Hollywood’s history. And as the WGA , SAG-AFTRA and the DGA all preparing for contract talks early in 2023 with the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers, residuals could again be the flashpoint for the first industry-wide strike in 15 years. With inflation at over 7% this year, raising minimum pay rates also is expected to be a major issue for all three guilds. The WGA West, for instance, saw significant declines in total earnings for film and TV writers in 2020 and 2021, in part due to smaller episode orders and ubiquitous mini writers rooms, so the usual 3% annual pay hikes may not cut it this time. The WGA’s current contract expires May 1, and the DGA and SAG-AFTRA contracts both expire June 30, and all three guilds have said they want more streaming residuals and higher minimum pay rates for their members. And though strike … [Read more...] about Historically, The WGA Is Overdue For A Strike, With Residuals Again A Key Issue Of Upcoming Talks

Angela Workman, writer of The Zookeeper’s Wife , Chap Taylor, consulting producer on The Blacklist, Holly Sorensen, creator of the Step Up TV series, Flint Wainess, consulting producer of The CW’s In The Dark, Mixed Signals writer Eric Tipton and Marc Guggenheim, co-creator and exec producer of Arrow and DC’s Legends of Tomorrow – all veterans of the 07-08 picket line – weighed into the issue ahead of the negotiations. “There’s a lot of confusion about what the 2007-08 strike did and did not accomplish, and a lot of discussion about what we might achieve in our upcoming negotiation,” writes Workman on the From The Trenches: Working … [Read more...] about WGA Writers Look Back At 2007-08 Strike For Lessons To Apply To Looming Negotiations: “They Call It Fog Of War For A Reason”

Heinrich Böll’s short story, ‘Anecdote Concerning the Lowering of Productivity’ might be one of the most famous tales of the internet era. Although it was originally published in 1963, its brevity and “gotcha” ending have made it the prime subject for IM and social media sharing. It’s so popular it’s one of those things that are so misattributed, misquoted, and modified that at a certain point nobody knows where it originally came from. All of you surely know it already. A smug tourist attempts to lecture a scruffily dressed fisherman about how to live his life and ends up receiving quite the lesson. The story is fantastic, definitively one of Böll’s best, but it has been shared so many times on grandma’s Facebook page and co-opted by so many wellness gurus that I can’t help cringing at it. Speaking to these surfers that have spent their lives pouring their blood, sweat, and tears to improve their local communities, the overused tale suddenly came back to me, and I must … [Read more...] about Surfers tell us why Western Australia is the best place in the world to live like a retired rockstar

I mean, the idea of attempting to make a comedy under this, like, reign of terror, he was a yeller. He would bring down somebody every day…and my first day, it was me.” During a wide-ranging discussion with Dunham about different behaviors on set, Faris said that she had to fight back tears during her turbulent first interaction with Reitman, who died in February , after she was late to set due to an … [Read more...] about Anna Faris Reveals Identity Of Director She Had Accused Of Inappropriate Behavior On Set – Update

Shudder and IFC Midnight are launching microbudget Skinamarink on a not-so-micro 629 screens, giving the viral horror pic a major push after a well-received premiere back at Fantasia-fest that just kept snowballing with strong reviews and social media love. “I was over the moon. For a horror filmmaker in Canada, [Fantasia] is like getting a Cannes screening,” says first-time filmmaker Kyle Edward Ball about the leadup to this weekend’s buzzy specialty opening. He shot the $15k feature at his parents’ home in Edmonton, Canada. In it, two children wake up in the middle of the night to find their father is missing and all the windows and doors in their home have vanished. “I’d had a nightmare when I was little. I was in my parents’ house, my parents were missing, and there was a monster. And lots of people have shared this exact same dream,” Ball tells Deadline. He should know. After film school and a stint selling video equipment, he launched a YouTube channel called Bitesized … [Read more...] about Microbudget Horror ‘Skinamarink’ Creeps Onto 600+ Screens – Specialty Preview

“It’s a part of me,” says Ryan Coogler of the Sundance Film Festival, a decade after his Fruitvale Station debuted in Park City and took home both the Audience Award and the Grand Jury prize. “So much of it impacted me and made me the filmmaker that I am today,” the Black Panther director adds. “Without question, and in ways I couldn’t have anticipated.” An alumnus of the 2012 Sundance Institute Labs, Coogler is back this year at the Robert Redford founded festival in a duel role.

Landscape with Invisible Hand is a unique story of survival under economic occupation of the Vuvv, an extraterrestrial race who aim to dominate humanity in every way except violence. Written and directed by Cory Finley ( Bad Education , Thoroughbreds ), the innovative, poignant film explores how humanity might handle an Earth-altering alien occupation and the resulting clash between class and commerce. Based on the book by M.T. Anderson, the film starts with a series of drawings and paintings created by Adam Campbell (Asante Blackk). His art documents how times have changed over a 10-year period from when he began drawing until he turned 17 in 2036. It depicts life before and during the alien invasion by the Vuvv, who are described as gooey, four-legged, box-shaped aliens with hard, padded limbs that they use as a way to communicate. The rich sold out the community by buying into the idea of technological advancement that resulted in loss of human jobs, obsolete education, … [Read more...] about ‘Landscape With Invisible Hand’ Sundance Review: Aliens Are Humanity’s Economic Overlords In Cory Finley Pic
