Alright. Y’all know how this works. That’s $1100 right there. 

EVERYTIME I see a Miles Morales fancasting they have a cool young actor but they never seem to fit. Like their energy for the character is just a little off. When I first saw Maliq in the Netflix show Grand Army I IMMEDIATELY thought that is Miles Morales right there. He has so much natural charisma that fits extremely well with the MCU. And the show took place in New York he just fits so perfectly anyways he is the guy Maliq Johnson makes sense!!

Just because I'm up thinking at 3:33am

I looked down, embarrassed. Cast members in a production are given numbers to make certain parts of the production more efficient, so like, instead of having the full name of an actor listed in the limited space of a call sheet under the scenes they are in, it will just have a list of numbers that represent all the actors who are in that scene. The number an actor is given generally adheres to the hierarchy of that person’s character in the show; out of seven series regulars, Anna was number 1 and my number was 7.

I quietly said to the director “I’m number 7”, because I knew where he was going with this but I didn’t know how to stop it. He said “number 7, last. so it really doesn’t matter does it?” And he walked away. Everyone in that room saw this happen. No one said anything about it. Josh is the only one who came over to me and gave me a hug. I think he told me “I’m sorry”, as I tried, unsuccessfully, not to cry in his arms.

This is seriously dangerous to creators

Read the letter from Alan Dean Foster:

Dear Mickey,

We have a lot in common, you and I.  We share a birthday: November 18.  My dad’s nickname was Mickey.  There’s more.

When you purchased Lucasfilm you acquired the rights to some books I wrote.  STAR WARS, the novelization of the very first film.  SPLINTER OF THE MIND’S EYE, the first sequel novel.  You owe me royalties on these books.  You stopped paying them.

When you purchased 20th Century Fox, you eventually acquired the rights to other books I had written.  The novelizations of ALIEN, ALIENS, and ALIEN 3.  You’ve never paid royalties on any of these, or even issued royalty statements for them.

All these books are all still very much in print.  They still earn money.  For you.  When one company buys another, they acquire its liabilities as well as its assets.  You’re certainly reaping the benefits of the assets.  I’d very much like my miniscule (though it’s not small to me) share.

You want me to sign an NDA (Non-disclosure agreement) before even talking.  I’ve signed a lot of NDAs in my 50-year career.  Never once did anyone ever ask me to sign one prior to negotiations.  For the obvious reason that once you sign, you can no longer talk about the matter at hand.  Every one of my representatives in this matter, with many, many decades of experience in such business, echo my bewilderment.

You continue to ignore requests from my agents.  You continue to ignore queries from SFWA, the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America.  You continue to ignore my legal representatives.  I know this is what gargantuan corporations often do.  Ignore requests and inquiries hoping the petitioner will simply go away.  Or possibly die.  But I’m still here, and I am still entitled to what you owe me.  Including not to be ignored, just because I’m only one lone writer.  How many other writers and artists out there are you similarly ignoring?

My wife has serious medical issues and in 2016 I was diagnosed with an advanced form of cancer.  We could use the money.  Not charity: just what I’m owed.  I’ve always loved Disney.  The films, the parks, growing up with the Disneyland TV show.  I don’t think Unca Walt would approve of how you are currently treating me.  Maybe someone in the right position just hasn’t received the word, though after all these months of ignored requests and queries, that’s hard to countenance.  Or as a guy named Bob Iger said….

“The way you do anything is the way you do everything.”

I’m not feeling it.

BOOST.
