i was gonna do the smart thing and stay outta this....but eh, seeing everyone dog on the writers guild for being overpaid or lazy....i dont know much facts, but i do know this:
when battlestar galactica made those resistance webisodes of there's, both as a seperate work, and as an advertisting tool....the writers didnt get nothing beyond the intial payment, no rights or anything. because of this whole internet braodcast thing.
all's i know....is it would suck to do something, and then get told "nope, thats all you get, the royalities(which is where most writers make their dough) are ours, cause it aint tv we be showing these things on, its the web! NANANANA MOTHERF**KERS! we get all the money, mainly for doing nothing but sitting on our behinds!"
just thought to throw that out...and about writers being overpaid...they aint, not for the tv business. they're not hurting, but they;re not being treated like royality like the insepid actors and actresses.
ehhh. i go back to reading comics.
