HamptRds, VA Writers strike..........copied from theforce.net home page.

""We recently contacted Lucasfilm to try to get a pulse on how the current writers' strike will be effecting upcoming Star Wars projects such as The Clone Wars and the live action series. John from Lucasfilm was nice enough to get back to us and here is the response we recieved:

"Lucasfilm has many projects in various stages of production. We do not at this point know what impact, if any, the strike will have."


Well...at least there is hope. If I remember correctly from one of our many posts, a number of episodes of The Clone Wars are already in the can and more are currently in production. Hopefully they have enough material to keep going...at least for a while. We'll make sure to keep you posted."""


My impression is that Lucas does not have a lot to do with Hollywood, so most of his writers are probably owned by him?
Just my guess.

 

but they still have to be part of the WGA, unless he hires scabs..which would REALLY put him in the doghouse!

 

Not necessarily. Like George L. and Quentin T. (who are not part of any directors guild) there are probabyl people that flock to people like this so as not to be restricted by the mainstream Hollywood elite.

 

Yeah Sithspawn,

that is what I was trying to say.
