Can someone give some context? It seems I'm out of the loop.
Is Stallone scabbing?

Filmed a promo intro for the NFL on Fox for their pregame show and they gave a shout out to his documentary coming out on Netflix.
Thank you. What a c*nt.
You can say "cunt" on the Internet.
No he c*n't
Yes he cunt I checked before
I was afraid that the skelleton warriors theme was gonna play if I do.
Cunt. Huh, you’re right!
Crunt.
Wait a minute, lemme try again.
Curbt.
Well f*ck...
They can also not say cunt if they don't wanna. Why you gatekeeping censorship
🙄
Sorry but I'm still not following... Can you explain it with full nuance? Was this during the strike?
Actor strike is still going on. Only the writers strike ended.
What's the problem? Good faith question, not being disagreeable. Does he go on about struggling actors in the documentary? Oh or a famous person using their fame to their advantage?
He filmed a promo for a company that is still actively being struck by his Union, the documentary is about his life or some shit, i dont really know, but either way actors aren't supposed to promote or film during the strike, both of which Stallone has done.
Unless it was with a company that reached a deal with their Union such as A24 which has actively been filming for months and were barely effected by the strike cause they came to table in good faith instead of trying to wait the strike out like tge major studios.
Ah, I was only vaguely aware of the writer's strike and didn't tie that together. It all makes sense now. Thanks for the explanation. That's pretty shitty.
Is there a list of studios that have come to an agreement? I'd already heard of A24, I guess it could just be them though
If you watched Tulsa King, this shouldn't come as a surprise. Stallone has unfortunately become the whiniest curmudgeon boomer in history
