The "Screen Actors Guild" (SAG) and the "American Federation of Television and Radio Artists" (AFTRA) are fighting for the good of their union. It has been reported that Video Game Producers pay performers only once with - no secondary residuals. It is a billion dollar industry and performers have to survive. Movies and TV pay residuals even with Internet repeats. SAG-AFTRA performers only want a small percentage of a video game that might sell into the millions around the world.

'Jack Reacher: Never Go Back' doesn't have great dialogue of first film
JACK REACHER: NEVER GO BACK for PARAMOUNT PICTURES. According to "Box
Office Mojo" that tracks box office receipts. "Reacher" has grabbed
$39,769,924 at U.S., theaters as of Oct. 30, 2016. It has nabbed
$54,200,000 at the Foreign box office. The worldwide total nabs $93,969,924 with a production budget of $60 million.
A friend took me to see this latest movie loosely based on a Lee Child novel. Tom Cruise returns as Jack Reacher who is a drifter who helps those in trouble. Two of Major Turner's combat veterans have been murdered and Turner is arrested. Jack enters the picture and is framed in the death of a military man before he can help Turner. The race is on as "The Hunter" chases Jack and Turner to kill them.
It doesn't have the great dialogue written for the first movie. It has Tom Cruise as an action star though. Jack has to deal with a daughter that he never knew he had. "The Hunter" tries to kill her too. It gets complicated and dangerous. I liked it, but not as much as I liked the first movie. (Author, Lee Child appears in this film too).

“Easter” night 2006. The police investigation unfolded and four
suspects emerged from two different states. Two male suspects were
extended family members and the other two were complete strangers.
Did they know each other? The police may have arrested two wrong men.
A CSI investigator was charged with blood evidence tampering. A
finger “ring” was dropped in the home during the murder. That led
to a “stolen” truck which led to a “note” of confession. The
twists and turns in this double-murder still has the Stock family
asking questions.
(If this was a repeat episode. I never saw it and I would've remembered it. Keith Morrison reported and when he is shocked, you are shocked too. This double-murder was completely astounding).

'Dateline' episode 'A Dangerous Man' is only on Demand
DATELINE on NBC. TV fans are asking where to watch the episode called, "A Dangerous Man" (10-14-2016). I found out that NBC has decided to re-air it only with "Demand." Check your TV carrier package for channels that run episodes of "Dateline." The network wouldn't re-air online the anniversary episode of "OJ Simpson." It was reported by Josh Mankiewicz. A friend of mine DVR'd it for me to watch. So, sometimes it is the network's decision not to re-air online, but running it straight to "Demand." What I'll do is ask a friend if I can watch the episode on his "Demand" channel and TV recap.
