Hollywood inundated with scripts about writers' strike



After months of writing inactivity, Hollywood producers are coming in to work to find piles of scripts on their desks, with the vast majority about how the writers of America won a valiant battle against the producers.


'I know I wasn't supposed to be writing,' said one of the writers who submitted a script within minutes of the strike ending, 'but its not like I've got any life skills, what else was I supposed to do while striking?'


A spokesperson for the Producers' Guild of America said 'you couldn't make it up'.




Hollywood writers strike ends happily ever after



In an unsurprising plot twist the strike has ended with the writers defeating Darth Vadar, escaping the Shawshank Prison and finding the lost Ark of the Covenant. Audiences claimed the resolution all seemed a bit implausible, yet the writers argued it could not be worse than the last season of Game of Thrones.


The strike itself, threatened to be as long as Avatar. Explained one author: 'It was a heart-warming story of boy meets girl, boy forms a trade union, while girl says something irrelevant about equal pay.'


It is still be seen if writers will ever use vowels ever again. Plus, there is still the threat of AI staff, although all their scripts end with Sarah Connor dying. Whereas this final agreement has a sled tossed into a fireplace with the phrase “streaming residuals” marked on it.




The psychopath did it




In a stunning turn of unforeseen events, Hollywood has made a blockbuster film where a character called Slashy Killman displays overt psychopathic behaviour from the outset, and then it turns out he committed a series of brutal murders.


'I just didn't see it coming,' said Gretchen Gates, a regular moviegoer from Los Angeles. 'Normally, the plots are baseline formulaic, so as not to flicker our brains into any level of contemplation, but this has blown my mind. It's so clever how it turned out it was the psychopath all along. I can't wait to see where they take it in the prequel.'
