According to reports, producers expect writers will run out of money, possibly lose their homes and be forced to come to bargaining table. Producers denied these reports.
Isn’t this still basically a thing? IIRC Quentin Tarantino is still fuming at Disney because they bought up all the showtimes for the first week of Star Wars 7 and his movie got screwed over.

Technically Disney doesn’t own those theaters, but they told the theaters they wouldnt get any more Disney releases if they didn’t do what they were told. And given how nearly every big blockbuster is Disney nowadays, that basically made it impossible to ignore.
It really should’ve been squashed, it’s cut and dry monopoly behavior.
