THB #411: The Week That Wasn't

As usual, I completely forgot my birthday… which is not to say my personal date of birth, but the 2nd birthday of this incarnation of The Hot Button, which was on the day after my birthday, October 4. THB #1: Greetings... and Box Office Monday had 431 views. I explained the history of The Hot Button and did some deep box office analysis… most of which I don’t do in public anymore because it exhausts most of the readers.

Anyway… good time to sell subscriptions… but I always forget to do that… ha.

Aside from that, a long week of very little…

No news is - EVERYONE!!! - good news on the SAG/Aftra front.

Once struck by Mr. Thrice Fucked (you will understand the reference later & laugh)

It means they are working seriously. They’re taking the weekend to stop and strategize and they will get back to it next week. But everyone, on both sides, feels it is time to get back to work and the only way that is going to happen is if AMPTP does enough and SAG/Aftra doesn’t over-commit to its most extreme…
