Lionsgate, and Marvel was get writers again

0 Comments POSTED ON Jan 25 2008 AT 8:03 am BY Beat

Lionsgate and Marvel have joined the list of studios cutting their own deals with the WGA:

The deals followed separate guild pacts with other independent production companies such as United Artists, The Weinstein Co. and David Letterman’s Worldwide Pants.

The guild said such agreements confirm it’s possible for writers to be compensated fairly and for companies to operate profitably.


Bravo, Marvel! Let’s get the rest of this dumb strike settled so we can watch Lost for more than 6 episodes.

    Heidi – Lost has 8 episodes in the can. Well, I should think Marvel would want to weigh on the strike – with the high quality they’ve been putting into their movies and those wonderful direct-to-video animated features- why grind it to a halt?
