Under the towering green Gaslamp District sign on Fifth Ave. during the Friday of San Diego Comic-Con, a giddy group of cosplayers and SAG-AFTRA members stood together holding strike solidarity signs.
Organized by the actors union’s San Diego membership president Larry Poole, the photo-op and gathering was approved by the national actors union and shared with local members through an email blast a handful of days before. Striking SAG-AFTRA and WGA members, as well as cosplayers — both of the fan variety and some who are themselves in IATSE — joined the 30-minute meet-up for local talent, one of the first in the city since the performers guild announced it would strike beginning July 14.

Pretty much my whole reason for giving The Final Wish a watch was because Lin Shaye stars in it.
