elleInigo Montoya has joined the picket line 😊
Hermey G@ElleGray Oh now I have to watch it again 🥜
dingodog@Bobblegagger @ElleGray I say that every Tuesday
Maxilo Overit@ElleGray He was one of the first ones out there when the writers began striking!
Cyber Yuki@ElleGray OMG it is him 
@ElleGray BTW, for those unaware of the term:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_(entertainment_industry)
drevil@chickfilla @yuki2501 the streaming services don't pay. I don't know how it's legal, but big business in the states seems to be allowed to do whatever it wants. The writers have to fight for it themselves
barryzee@chickfilla @yuki2501 @ElleGray The studios have had creative accountants for a long long time. They can make most mildly popular movies look like they are losing money. Princess Bride being a good example. It's become a cult classic yet the studios don't let that follow on money hit the books for residuals. The unions really need the right to audit. It's the reason Scarlett Johansson was so bent out of shape when Black Widow was released on Disney only. She got pd because she made a fuss public
@chickfilla @yuki2501 @ElleGray So, the IRS only looks at the tax returns of the studios. How they distributes the residuals never hits except as a gross business expense. As with most corporations, there are enough loopholes to owe little or no taxes. Since those are private, the actors and writers would never see what they are reporting to the IRS. That's why they need the right to audit. I am guessing that the studios would give them a lot of other stuff to avoid giving them that.

Ryan Noakes 🇨🇦@ElleGray I love that Mandy Patinkin will still reference Princess Bride!
Also, I do hope that Hollywood execs pull their heads out of a certain orifice and prepare to pay all the creatives properly.

BlueDotAZ@ElleGray That is magnificent!
Robin Bobcat@ElleGray I would have also accepted "Excuse me, but do you happen to have nine figures on your paycheck?"
@RobinBobcat 😄 that's great
The Embodiment of RED 
@ElleGray Mandy Patinkin seems like a genuine sweetheart of a guy. 🥰

astro@ElleGray he's a national treasure
BurningAtrocity@ElleGray I'm so happy to see some actors are standing with the writers. There are a few I have heard of, and I'm sure there are more.
@burningatrocity the actors are on strike now too so there's thousands of them all over the place 😊

Steffani Cameron@ElleGray he joined it when the writers started it.
TransitBiker@ElleGray oh fuck. Oh fuck!
aethervision@ElleGray Good luck storming the castle!
StarkNo lies. I thought that was Madi Patinkin.
@Stark9837 it's Mandy Patinkin
Nice. Now I like him even more!
Advanced Persistent Teapot@Stark9837 @ElleGray read some more stuff about him and his politics and the causes he supports - you won't be disappointed. That there is a good man.
Jaijeet@ElleGray Thanks Sir for your support... 🙏
Locomotoro@locomotoro lol sí
JaageriHope this writers strike makes them write far better then the last few years garbage in movies.
@Jaageri garbage is greenlit by execs, not the writers; just like greatness is cancelled or shit canned by the same. Remember the OA? Farscape? Lay blame where it’s due.
Jaakko Oikarinen-Vasankari@ElleGray When the Homeland guy stops, you know its serious schaisse.
Marcos Alano 
@ElleGray He is a CIA's spy
YAYSUU@ElleGray you killed the writers, prepare to die
Sam Gross@ElleGray @codinghorror probably a worthy reminder that from his 50 year career, Mandy Patinkin is probably only getting residuals on Princess Bride.
@SamTheGeek @codinghorror good point
@ElleGray @codinghorror He’s won several acting awards and they’re worth approximately subway fare to him each year.
Ciarán Ferrie@ElleGray Mandy is a hero!
