If you want to support striking SAGAFTRA & WGA union members, then stop claiming SanDiegoComicCon was great without TV & Film being there. It doesn't help... OPINION / SDCC SDCC2023 ComicCon SAGAFTRAStrike WGAStrike sagaftra wgaeast wgawest
The writing was on the wall once the WGA officially went on strike, and it became much clearer once SAG-AFTRA followed suit. This year's San Diego Comic-Con was going to be unlike any other before it – a pretty bold statement considering we're still in the shadow of the pandemic-impacted year. From a coverage standpoint, we had to take a Jekyll/Hyde approach when it came to our television coverage.
But on the other hand? It sucked. Royally. Why? Because as great as the news & previews were, they were just hollow adrenaline rushes lacking the essential ingredient to make them meaningful – the people who created these projects. As much as I loved the TWD news that dropped, the thought that we could've hadDanai Gurira
on stage together to drive up the excitement but couldn't is depressing. And it really, really pisses me off. Because the studios dropping all of this news goodness are the same ones who won't even bother to return to the negotiating table with the WGA & SAG-AFTRA.
So when I read articles online and social media posts about how SDCC"did just fine" and"was even better" without television and film not being there, I started scratching my head until I felt brain because for the life of me? I have no f***ing clue why folks who are going around saying those things think that helps striking SAG-AFTRA & WGA members in their contract negotiations.
And for a quick reality check? SDCC had a huge crowd because it was also a captive audience – who was getting any kind of decent refund at that point? And it's interesting to see where some of the largest crowds were – activations/off-sites & convention floor. As for panels & presentations, the weekend was filled with social media posts showing how empty rooms & halls were.
