He could resolve it tomorrow by accepting the union’s reasonable demands. He could have resolved it weeks ago by accepting the union’s reasonable demands.
That’s true, he could. But I’ve seen no evidence that he’s actively fighting the union’s demands unlike Iger, Zaslav, and Sarandos. I’d love to see evidence to the contrary if it exists, though.
@realcaseyrollins you know, I'd feel better about this whole strike if these folks were more marginalized, had more need, and were directly linked to the consumer. Instead it's like lawyers, these folks earn their keep, not because they actually performed work people would have paid a specific price for, but a price was charged for their work that they recieved based not on talent or actual value, but because of the other people that were part of the project.
I don't think I'd call these folks marginalized, but they're certainly not rich or entitled for the most part. I think this all boils down to, do actors and writers deserve residuals or not. If they do, than their demands are largely reasonable, but if not, then they're not.
You don’t get to pick and choose which people’s human decency matters. You don’t get to pick and choose which people’s jobs are important enough that they should be able to afford to live decently. It’s us, all of us, versus the people exploiting us. This kind of petty, judgemental bullshit does none of us any favours. You’re just carrying water for the people burning the planet so they can buy bigger yachts.
I wish this dude would stop getting parts - he did some interview on a radio station where he basically sounded borderline retarded and now that's all I think of when I see him.
Meh, I suppose my hubby is going to want us to watch this. The first couple seasons were fantastic, but 3 was quite a drop in quality, and 4 was IMO laughably awful.
