Pretty good youtube video about the reasons for the strike. Hits some of the points I kicked around earlier.
And you're sure this isn't just some fanboy thing? 'Cause I've fought more than a couple pimply, overweight vamps that called themselves Lestat.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

Heard on the picket line, Day 2
UNIVERSAL: We can do the Jurassic Park ride later
Apparently, there was a Teamster present who just happened to be visiting from out of state with his wife. Somehow he stumbled across the shoot and told his wife he wanted to join the picket line. She basically said, "Are you crazy?" And he answered something like, "We're Teamsters, that's what we do."

It was a while before I could appreciate him, but that kinda makes me love him.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

The Teamsters were also awesome during the last SAG strike a few years ago. Bless 'em.

Apparently a Teamster delivering milk refused to cross the picket line at Sony and made folks inside come out and get the milk.
What confounds me, though, is when the supermarkets had a strike, they still had goods delivered so did the Teamsters ignore their picket lines?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

This is brilliant. Whedonesque has something on a possibly planned strike with the Mutant Enemy people - is that the thing Tim made reference to above, or is that something different? I think that would get an audience outside of fandom.
