STRIKETRON-5000's Interests
|
|
General
|
Topping the audience share in the key 18-49 demo, scoring a $75 mil opening weekend, keeping my robot mouth shut during contract negotiations, gradually subjugating the human race via the entertainment industry |
|
Music
|
Yeah, good luck creating a robot for that hornet’s nest. |

Movies
|
Thanks to “Strikey,” we're set through 2008 and beyond! Who's ready for Another American Gangster starring Nick Cannon?? |
|
Television
|
I gotta have my Ellen! She’s the cutest picket-line crosser! Is she single? |
|
Books
|
“Strikey” can adapt anything from a best-selling Nicholas Sparks weepie to the latest James Patterson thriller. He is also adept at “graphic novels.” (Look for 301 in ’09 cowritten by “Strikey” and Frank Miller.) |
|
Heroes
|
Fun facts: Daryl Zanuck once threatened to mow down his writers with a tommy-gun if they picketed outside of 20th Century Fox. Jack Warner used to call striking scribes “commies and pinkos.” And many studio heads employed mobsters like Bugsy Siegel to “lean” on the unions. Ah, the Golden Age of Hollywood!

About me:
Hello, this is Nick Counter, president of the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers. I’d like to introduce all the film and TV fans out there to my new friend StrikeTron-5000. (Or “Strikey”, as I like to call him.) “Strikey” will be aiding the beleaguered (and underpaid) producers during the WGA strike by providing scripts for all of your favorite movies and TV shows. “Strikey” really does it all! With the press of a button he can pen a remake of Cannonball Run II, pitch an Anne Hathaway vehicle, punch up those How I Met Your Mother scripts, and go on a PinkBerry run for all the execs and their assistants. And the best part is—no complaints! “Strikey” doesn't mind working until the wee hours of the morning cranking out the umpteenth draft of Alvin and the Chipmunks. He loves it when Vince Vaughn decides to toss out his script and “wing it” on set.
But more importantly, “Strikey” will never ask you for things like, say, an increase on residuals from DVD sales as he firmly understands that the current rates were clearly and fairly set before the existence of DVDs. Nor will he demand to be paid for work he created that is used by the studios for “promotional” purposes on the Internet. “Strikey” knows that the studios (and their parent corporations) are barely getting by on the meager ad dollars they earn from this new-fangled “new media.” “Strikey” realizes that once he (literally) pumps out a script his job is done, and all of the revenue earned thereafter (be it from DVD sales, Internet downloads, or ad-supported streaming views on the company’s website) is none of his business. Also, despite his clever name, “Strikey” has no guild allegiance. The cute lil’ guy doesn’t even know what a “union” is! It’s just not in his programming.
Producers, here how it works:
Step 1:
Feed any legal-size paper into “Strikey.” Press the button for your desired genre. (Emmy Award-winning dramedy, CGI animal cartoon, horror torture-porn sequel, middling Luke Wilson comedy, etc.).
Step 2:
Press the large red button marked “Write.” (Don’t forget this step!)
Step 3:
Wait approx. 12-48 hours.
Step 4:
Remove your fresh script (careful! it’s hot!) from Strikey’s belly.
Step 5:
Reap your residual-free rewards!*
*Note: StrikeTron-5000 requires four tons of weapons-grade plutonium to power its inner core. The AMPTP is not responsible for any disasters, box-office or otherwise, that may result from use of “Strikey.”
Also available: ShowRunnerBot-2000, PicketLineCrosser-700 (now with realistic Steve Carell likeness), and SAGTron-4000 (available for summer 2008 contract arbitrations.)
