Okay the writer's strike sucks. I'm sure we can all agree on that. I get why it's happening. People are entitle to what they're entitled to. From a selfish point of view, it sucks. But the good news, no great news, is Marvel Studios have come to some sort of agreement. Read on for yourself:
Marvel Studios, a subsidiary of Marvel Entertainment, Inc., and the Writers Guild of America (WGA) announced today that they have reached an interim comprehensive agreement that will put writers immediately back to work on the Marvel Studios development slate. Terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
“We're very excited about our summer releases, Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, and look forward to resuming work with writers on our future projects including Captain America, Thor, Ant-Man, and The Avengers,” said Marvel Studios Chairman David Maisel.
“Marvel Studios' signing of an interim agreement with the Writers Guild is more good news for our membership,” said WGAE President Michael Winship and WGAW President Patric M. Verrone. “Marvel is committed to fairly compensating their writers and now they can move forward with their planned production schedule.”
I want more comic-based movies. Let's hope things continue to go smoothly and we get some more great flicks to look forward to.
