strike, first casualty

There was a picketer foot in this shoe.

The Strike that keeps on giving

Nikki Finke just received a firm denial of a rumor flying around that,
instead of crossing the picket line, a major showrunner of two
McPopular ABC shows is relocating her offices off lot to continue her
duties while other showrunners refuse to work. A Shonda Rhimes insider
told me a second ago: "No. She's standing tall with the other
showrunners."

People showing up to work at the Fox lot this morning received this
cheery memo from the Executive Vice President of Production, helpfully
reminding employees that they should be making "appropriate
arrangements" (i.e., plans for a career change, the selling of personal
effects/internal organs for rent/mortgage money) in the event that the
company decides to discontinue their employment during the strike: "The
production you are working on may come to completion, or because your
particular skills may no longer be needed, you may not be picked up for
another week or day (whichever is applicable) under your deal memo (if
applicable). Therefore your work on the production may come to an end.
Although we are not required by law to provide this notice, we wanted
to give you as much notice as possible so that you can make appropriate
arrangements."

WGA just announced this from Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama:

"I stand with the writers. The Guild's demand is a test
of whether media corporations are going to give writers a fair share of
the wealth their work creates or continue concentrating profits in the
hands of their executives. I urge the producers to work with the
writers so that everyone can get back to work."

Warner Bros. travaille sur Musclor.

Warner Bros. et Joel Silver travaillent avec Mattel pour faire un film de "He-Man and the Masters of the Universe" (Musclor pour les francophones). Point d'animation ici, mais des acteurs dont on s'imagine mal comment il vont reussir a rester credibles en slip de peau avec ceinture en Or et autres costume d'oiseau. Lee Strasberg, Sanford Meisner et Konstantin Stanislavski vont être mis à dure epreuve.

Justin Marks devrait écrire le script avec Joel Silver comme producteur. Le but ? Faire de ce film un Tentpole (les films les promus par les studios chaque année).

The franchise has been reimagined by the producer and the writers and pitched to Mattel as a classic good vs. evil battle, using the kind of visual effects strategy employed in "300." A warrior is touted as the last hope of a magical land called Eternia, which is being ravaged by technology and the evil Skeletor.


Et dire qu'on se moquait d'Entourage avec "Aquaman" et son "meilleur demarrage de tous les temps" (récement battu par le plus réel, mais tout aussi mauvais, Spiderman 3)…
