The rules during the strike

Bad signs for KOTFM fall premiere or any promo 😭

Hollywood is official on strike.

It's official. Actors have joined the strike.

@akatosh you're welcome

@Clarence we already know the union agreed to strike well in advance should a deal not be reached. Since the deal isn't reached I think they’re doing this vote today just to make it official-official. Slightly off topic fun fact: Margots latest premiere look of Enchanted Evening Barbie from 1960 is curiously the same year that the actors and the writers were last on strike at the same time – coincidence or conspiracy? 😄

^And here it begins. Actors Strike: Global Biz Braces for Impact as ‘Gladiator 2,’ ‘Mortal Kombat 2’ Prepare to Stop Filming "This is a shapeshifting moment in Hollywood history." Source

As expected no deal came along.

I love how those "big" men are gettin upset because they don't get what they want. It's like back in kindergarten LMAO Christopher Nolan Upset That ‘Barbie’ Opening on Same Day as ‘Oppenheimer’ (...) According to Insider, four sources, familiar with the matter, are saying that Nolan is upset about Warner Bros. scheduling "Barbie" for release on the same weekend as "Oppenheimer. They went on to add that usually mid-July has been known as "Nolan's weekend" for years in the industry. Supposedly, even the “movie-theatre community” attempted to convince Warner Bros. to move the release date of "Barbie,” but the studio adamantly refused. The reason why the "Oppenheimer" and "Barbie" showdown has become such a big deal is because it’s very rare for studios to date two big blockbusters on the same weekend. “They want to keep their big releases away from other major titles because opening on the same weekend can result in fewer box-office dollars for both.” Clearly, Warner Bros. saw an opportunity and this has resulted in a an absolute marketing BLITZ on their part for “Barbie.” The results might speak for themselves, Greta Gerwig’s IP-oriented flick is projected to have an opening of as high as $90 million. Meanwhile, the R-rated “Oppenheimer,” a 3-hour biopic partially shot in black and white, is looking at a $50 million on opening weekend. Reviews for both films are still embargoed, but, judging from the early reactions, “Oppenheimer” might be the more critically-acclaimed of the two.

More wins

Camis reaction DJATS got 9 emmy noms overall

Like most models she has an active thread here. So... https://www.bellazon.com/main/topic/28804-nina-agdal/

I wouldn't call me a "fan" of her but I also have nothing against her. Why should I?

Couldn't agree more. Not that I ever thought much about Napoleon 😄 The only thing Phoenix is capable of is playing weird. He can't act normal/different. He has no range. For what he deserves another oscar? For making the same pity face 3 hours long?

Here is now the assumption all of this can easily go until (or even after) fall what would effect KOTFM. Hollywood Studios’ WGA Strike Endgame Is To Let Writers Go Broke Before Resuming Talks In Fall

Oscars 2024: Best Actor Predictions Leonardo DiCaprio and David Strathairn are the first to garner awards buzz while audiences wait to see big releases built around performances from Oscar favorites from Joaquin Phoenix to Bradley Cooper. The State of the Race From in front, the main subject of conversation about the upcoming Best Actor Oscar race is Leonardo DiCaprio, star of the long-awaited Martin Scorsese film “Killers of the Flower Moon” (Apple Original Films/Paramount Pictures). Throughout the film’s lengthy development, it was unclear whether “The Revenant” actor was the lead of the film, or in a supporting role (Jesse Plemons’ FBI man plays a more prominent role in the David Grann bestseller). But the 2023 Cannes Film Festival premiere clarified that DiCaprio, a Best Actor winner in 2016, is going to be a lead contender in the category. Still, there is much to come. On one end, biopics “Maestro” (Netflix), “Rustin” (Netflix) and “Napoleon” (Apple Original Films/Sony Pictures) are built around the lead performances of Bradley Cooper, Colman Domingo, and Joaquin Phoenix, respectively. On the other end, it’s still unclear where the actors in “Challengers” (MGM), “Poor Things” (Searchlight Pictures), and “The Bikeriders” (20th Century Studios) will land. At film festival premieres in the first half of the year, past Oscar nominee David Strathairn (“Good Night, and Good Luck”) broke out at Sundance in family drama “A Little Prayer,” which Sony Pictures Classics will hope to follow the “Living” route that took Bill Nighy to an Oscar nomination. Alden Ehrenreich, star of “Fair Play” (Netflix), also made waves as one half of the buzziest acquisition out of the January festival. Though “Past Lives” is already a rare independent box office success story, A24’s challenge is to push Korean star Teo Yoo into awards conversation, but in which category? (His co-star John Magaro is more clearly a Supporting Actor contender.) Was “Everything Everywhere All at Once” making SXSW an Oscar launchpad an anomaly, or can Amazon Studios follow the trend by pushing “Air” star Matt Damon as a Best Actor contender? (He has scored three acting nominations.) The movie earned a 73 Metascore and was a box office disappointment in relation to cost, but played well to an older (male) demo. Clearly, the more established Cannes was the bigger launching pad for possible awards hopefuls like Christian Friedel of “The Zone of Interest” (A24”), Josh O’Connor of “La Chimera” (Neon), and Kôji Yakusho of “Perfect Days” (Neon). Looking forward, Cillian Murphy is due for a breakout playing the titular role in Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” (Universal Pictures), a likely summer blockbuster. Given the success of music biopics like “Bohemian Rhapsody” and “Elvis,” Kingsley Ben-Adir seems primed for a major awards campaign as well, as the star of Reinaldo Marcus Green’s “Bob Marley: One Love” (Paramount Pictures). With more news about fall festivals being released every day, past Oscar nominees Adam Driver and Paul Giamatti will use the respective premieres of “Ferrari” (STX Entertainment) and “The Holdovers” (Focus Features) as an opportunity to go another round. But this may be Michael Fassbender’s big year, with Taika Waititi’s “Next Goal Wins” (Searchlight Pictures) already pegged as a TIFF crowdpleaser and world premiere, and David Fincher’s “The Killer” (Netflix) up next. Contenders are listed in alphabetical order, below. No actor will be deemed a frontrunner until we have seen the film. Frontrunners: Matt Damon (“Air”) Leonardo DiCaprio (“Killers of the Flower Moon”) Alden Ehrenreich (“Fair Play”) David Strathairn (“A Little Prayer”) Teo Yoo (“Past Lives”) Contenders: Kingsley Ben-Adir (“Bob Marley: One Love”) Gael García Bernal (“Cassandro”) Bradley Cooper (“Maestro”) Colman Domingo (“Rustin”) Adam Driver (“Ferrari”) Michael Fassbender (“The Killer”) Christian Friedel (“The Zone of Interest”) Paul Giamatti (“The Holdovers”) Barry Keoghan (“Saltburn”) Cillian Murphy (“Oppenheimer”) Joaquin Phoenix (“Napoleon”) John David Washington (“The Piano Lesson”) Long Shots: Jay Baruchel (“Blackberry”) Timothée Chalamet (“Dune: Part Two”) Paul Dano (“Dumb Money”) Michael Fassbender (“Next Goal Wins”) Kelvin Harrison Jr. (“Chevalier”) Joaquin Phoenix (“Beau Is Afraid”) Jonathan Majors (“Magazine Dreams”) Josh O’Connor (“La Chimera”) Ben Platt (“Theater Camp”) Kôji Yakusho (“Perfect Days”) Source
