    And what if any of those 'contractors' decided that they wanted to be employees with SECURITY.

    you do realise some people prefer being contractors right?
    not everyone wants to be an employee and not everyone wants to be a contractor

    being a contractor is not this huge evil thing everyone hates

    yeah can i suggest we post excerpts from 'the standard' as much as we post from 'kiwiblog'

    which in an ideal world is hardly ever

    My pet new theory is MEAA are subsided by some European commission to kill productions in OZ and now NZ. Then for every killed production they get a percentage of the spend in europe

    to be honest it makes as much or as little sense as everyone elses theories :D


    however i don;t care about who said what now, i just want to be able to see Aidan Turner , martin freeman and the vicar of dibley's husband ambling down the streets of wellington.

    In my house we
    pre rinse dishes under running water before stacking them
    wash them in hottest water possible
    dry them

    am i supposed to add another rinse part in there?
    becuase a dishwasher can not come soon enough to my life if that's the case

    So i'm going to focus on the 2 things that annoy me

    from helen kelly

    Those foreign actors contracted to the Hobbit will be on union negotiated contracts and will be union members - luxury!

    hobbit producers have always said they honour all union agreements and the pink book, does helen kelly have proof they didn't until now?

    then from equity

    However, we are heartened by the new sense of opportunity to rebuild our relationship with SPADA

    didn't SPADA want to talk to them 18 months ago?

    Until today Equity has chosen to pursue its request without fighting the battle in the media and the court of public opinion.

    how do you explain the Campbell live appearance?
    and Frances Walsh's comments, which some i think came from press releases?

  • Hard News: Anatomy of a Shambles,

    what about bard and all the people of Lake-town
    and the elven king and the Wood-elves

    and then assuming it goes nto the time between the hobbit and the start of LOTR then you are open to a whole other pile of characters

    @deborah embrace the nerdery, hell i studied tolkien at uni so i am queen of the nerds, except for not speaking elvish

    so will the irish actors comply with the global "don't work" order?
    does it remain in existence if production moves locations?

  • Hard News: Yet More Hobbit,

    ok so a bunch of us discussed this tonight
    so let's go with a smattering of the general public to define 'peoples'

    Helen Kelly has many places she needs to be fighting the good fight right now (teachers, dr certificate required for sick leave, extending the 90 day trial period...) so perhaps it wasn't the most media savvy thing to be the face of tonight's actors meeting, when they have their own spokespeople.

    becuase honestly being one of the faces of loosing the hobbit -whether it's true or not if the hobbit goes that's where perception is - not good for the other fights that need fighting.

    has helen kelly considered what this is doing for peoples perceptions of the CTU?
