Though I see the irony of my first lines I cannot help but say I might be wrong, thinking the comment section was made to comment on the actual VIDEO someone MADE and not use it for simple talkativeness or expressions of how sweeeeeeet one of the actors shown is OR failing to understand that this clip is IRONICAL.

Writers don't get paid for the process of writing, they get paid for their finished product. WE, regular working folks, get paid for our labor. And because of the strike, we will not qualify for health benefits because we need work hours to be eligible. Thanks WGA. Writers have the luxury of writing anytime, but if you're truly striking you also should stop working/ writing. It's only fair.
I support the strike, but I don't support the WGA. As long as this strike goes on, there will be more and more people turning to YouTube and other forms of media.
I think it's a great thing. Keep it up guys! There's a lot of young, hungry writers out there who aren't part of the WGA who will be more than happy to take your place.
How else do you propose the writers get a fair share of the internet money from the big studios? maybe they could just keep writing for free? Yea, strikes and protests are bad for the masses of ignorant viewers who will miss their new shows, boo-hoo.
Come together, pool their money and talent, and make their own studio.
Too much money? Take out a business loan. Too risky? If you don't have the guts to do it yourself, why should anyone else do it for you?
The studios are the ones taking the risk by fronting the money for the shows. If the show flops, do the writers have to pay their salaries back? No. So they shouldn't be griping if they don't get much when the show succeeds.
Their share is fair; it's proportional to their risk.
y dont u guys become freelance writers and that way you can deal with the bosses yourself or better y dont the studios and their overly paid lawers start writing for the shows themseves i cant wait to see the episode of the office writen by ben silverman
If your like every writer I know, you are spending a lot of their striking free time writing new projects. After the last strike, there was such a tremendous wave of new material, it showed you guys are actually writing your asses off and tremendous hypocrites. As crew members we don't have the luxury of continuing to work during a strike that shuts down our show. Thanks you lousy, "aren't we clever" writers.
Ha ha ha, People need to realise how enslaved they are by TV, Television is to the capitalist society what church was to the fuedal societies, just an opiate, there to avert our eyes from the shit arround us.
These arrogant little pissants would scream bloody murder if someone complained about the crap that they put out on one of their shows, claiming that individual liberty ensures that they can spew any vile garbage they want. Yet isn't it amazing that the producers don't have individual liberties? They are a huge pile of...

Funny how WGA tries to make AMPTP look like the bastards, just check out what they're trying to do to Jay Leno for standing up to them.
the strike continues because the union's leaders are focused on jurisdictional issues that would expand their own power, at the expense of the new media issues that working writers care most about
Up until the title card at the end, I thought this was an anti-WGA video. Is this a case of the writer not liking his own message and thus having to correct himself with a post-script?
But the humor skewers the WGA, not the producers. If you ignore that this was written by a striking writer with the same goals as the WGA and just look at the movie itself, it is nothing but a mockery of the WGA. I just think it's interesting that the best film I've seen to come out of this strike makes fun of the WGA instead of the producers. Even if it assures us at the end that it's pro-WGA with that title card.

Ummm... because firefighters don't have to compete with thousands of other firefighters, repeatedly going from station to station, trying to get a meeting with the chief, showing clips of other fires they've fought, for the chance to put out a fire, one fire at a time...and more importantly a firefighter doesn't get paid per fire.

The studios are doing what is fair for writers. Studios invest their money, sometimes in less experienced writers. As a writer proves their worth they make more money. If they suck, they make less. If writers want an improvement then invest their own money. You people need to wake up to reality.
Great work -- especially those actors working on the butterscotch script. Those guys have a future. Great directing. Congrats to the anonymous writer.
Not at all. We were improvising and it just came out. We actually dig those guys. And, does anyone really know how to pronounce Moritz? I don't even think he does.
Dear lord, this is idiotic. Production values are okay, but the message sucks. "Producers, step up, so no scabs are injured." I was at the WGA/SAG thing yesterday and it wasn't about networking; it was about solidarity. Guess that wouldn't make a funny enough YouTube short, though.
