2. Go, writers! Anyone can read the lines, but not everyone can create them.

Union, YES.

4. Absolutely! If the script isn't good..it doesn't

matter how great the actors are..the movie or whatever will suck. How many times have we witnessed that?

6. I thought that was him, but I didn't speak to him.

I was on the edge of the picket line handing out leaflets. I did see John Leguzamo there too, and Chris Eliott.

7. I think few people realize how many performers are writers too.

I support you all 100%. Go WGA!

8. Great pics

I support the idea--and practice--of workers being compensated for their labor by those who create wealth off of their labor.

Best wishes to those striking.

10. Support the unions!

Great shots. Thanks and good luck. I have not read too much about it, been seeing stuff on some Broadway boards but that is about all. Whatever, I support the unions.
