Union rules. Regular, recurring and guests are entitled to different guild minimums and credit levels.

Reply to Bring Back Firefly! by oldandopinionated
It wasn’t a success, the fan base is too small to make it worth doing anything, and it’s been 20 years. The creator is unhireable.

Reply to comment by amehatrekkie in Previously unreleased footage from first submersible dives in July 1986 to the RMS Titanic shipwreck — British passenger liner that sank 14-15 April 1912 remains about 4,000 metres undersea in the Atlantic Ocean by marketrent
This is inaccurate. The Titanic expedition was always planned - it was the ostensible reason for Ballard to be out there. The Titanic portion was a joint WHOI/IFREMER expedition, and the French ship was searching for Titanic while Ballard was searching for the Cold War nuclear submarine Scorpion. Ballard arrived at Titanic search grid in time to take over from the IFREMER team.

Yahweh (the god of Jews, Christians, Muslims etc) isn’t supposed to be benevolent. It is supposed to be a tyrant. This “god is love” stuff is a relatively recent rebranding exercise.

Would that be the Jim Cameron who has used all of these techniques to great effect?
It’s a bizarre take really. I’d like to know your credits for you to be claiming that Cameron is the only good director. I have to assume this is a troll because it shows a stunning lack of literacy in film and television language which undercuts the sheer confidence in their opinions as fact.

You’re complaining about an important storytelling tool that has been in near ubiquitous use for over a hundred years.
