    Sounds like there just needs to be a part of the agreement that states that any new future avenue pay x amount or renegotiate. Doesn’t seem that hard.

      Well hell! What’s the strike all about when this person figured it all out?

      What’s that, you say? Greedy capitalists are greedy?

        Have you thought about ther needs? What if they need a new yacht or private jet? They only made a hundreds of millions of dollars last year. Only tens of thousands of dollars a day. How are they supposed to live in that salary?

      It sure doesn’t. It’s not difficult, only expensive, and expenses studio executives would rather stay in their own pockets, forever, which is why they’re striking.
