Movie stars are making movies because they're independent movies, and SAG is allowing it because if they do sell it to streaming, it has to be because streaming is abiding by all the things we're asking for.


lol there is nothing to be mad about

Streaming services are pretty much the reason why they're striking to begin with. Netflix's insistence on holding out on any agreements very early on pushed the strike. This isn't a bubble where streaming services and studios are separate entities, streaming services are also studios and if they benefit even marginally from an indie film I can see how that could cause issue with union members.

Denying streaming services films and shows is integral to accomplishing the unions' goals.

the early information we had made it seem like streaming services were the main concern but the union demands seem to be aimed moreso at traditional studios with some obvious concerns about streaming.

the fact that this studio the union isn't blocking its workers from met all the demands the union is asking for is reason enough for them to work with the studio. if they can get all their demands met of course they will work, that is the entire point of the strike.

Silverman is 100% right. If you're working during a strike, you're... Just working. Don't pretend you support the cause.

Considering that the studios in question are not being picketed then, there's no problem.

If you get a job with Fedex you're not working for UPS anymore and the strike is no longer your problem.

I am not a Sarah Silverman fan. But this time she is right. If movies are still being made then what is this strike doing. No bodies who might want to get into acting have been told that can't take promotions jobs or do a number of things. But these big wigs can keep on keeping on.

Yes, thus the reason those actors are working with A24.
Then Silverman is wrong.

honestly, I dont think it really works tell you that blackface is offensive by wearing blackface

i mean I am well awareSilverman has done plenty edgy jokes before about Asians that she weirdly tried to defend on Bill Maher once and the aforementioned song where she used the n word with hard r

I am not gonna get accountability from Sarah Silverman when she literally has gone on TV telling people she has the right to make offensive jokes

https://twitter.com/notcapnamerica/status/1579675133794717696?s=46&t=ujiYouoAdweFb0c3KkSmTg

i get it, it was 2001 but she never held accountability or apologized since then and its no different now certain comedians and podcasters still doubling down

I don't understand how some people are not getting this.

SAG is not boycotting all film making. They aren't. They are striking against the AMPTP, so studios that are not a part of the AMPTP are not part of that strike.

If people wanted to go make a French film with a studio not part of the AMPTP, they could do that just fine.
