Update to this post- Sinners had the best opening weekend for an original film in over a decade.

'Sinners' Breaks Box-Office Records as Highest-Grossing Original Movie Since 2019

It's topped not one, but *two* Jordan Peele horror hits.

Also part of the reason it's success is being undersold is likely because Coogler made an unprecented deal with Warner Bros. where he gets ownership of the movie back after 25 years so the execs are panicking.

Ryan Coogler cut a deal so good that Hollywood’s in crisis

An anonymous exec told Vulture that this could be “the end of the studio system.”

Coogler stay winning.

SAG-AFTRA IS STRIKING AGAIN

This time, for video games.

Some key information:

They are striking so all performers will have protection against AI

The struck companies are those signed to the Interactive Media Agreement

The listed companies by SAG-AFTRA include Activision Productions Inc, Blindlight LLC, Disney Character Voices Inc, Electronic Arts Productions Inc, Formosa Interactive LLC, Insomniac Games Inc, Llama Productions LLC, Take 2 Productions Inc, VoiceWorks Productions Inc and WB Games Inc. Though this may not be everyone.

Important things from the FAQ:

Some games from struck companies are non-struck (due to the Collective Bargaining Agreement still being in effect)

Localisations will be affected if covered under the Interactive Localization Agreement

Actors who are part of SAG-AFTRA cannot work for non-union or independent/low-budged productions during the strike unless they are signed to an Interim Interactive Media Agreement, Interim Interactive Localization Agreement or a Tiered-Budget Independent Interactive Media Agreement

Similarly to the previous strike, struck work cannot be promoted. This includes accepting awards for performances in struck games. This does NOT include hosting/performing a skit at an awards show and San Diego Comic Con (the latter due to the close proximity to the calling of the strike)

As implied by the point above, SAG-AFTRA performers cannot partake in panels related to struck games or companies, including finished games produced by struck companies

The best way to check if a game is struck is to use the search tool provided by SAG-AFTRA

Most importantly: You are NOT being asked to stop playing video games, as highlighted in the FAQ for creators and streamers. This does NOT cross the picket line. Though please do talk about the strike and show your solidarity

I expect to see the same amount of support from y'all that we saw in the last strike. Just because it's video games doesn't mean performers deserve any less support and protection.

Also please reblog with any additions (with sources - we are NOT here to spread misinformation)! And please correct me if anything listed here is incorrect.

If I am understanding correctly*: you need the production ID code to search for struck video games. If you type in something that is not that, you automatically get a notification to the effect of "THIS GAME IS STRUCK WORK (or maybe you just typed it in wrong)." So make 100% sure you got it right before going around claiming that XYZ game is struck!
