As we told you, the AMPTP has agreed to meet with the federal mediator the Allens asked to step into the stalled TV-Theatrical negotiations. The Allens have met with Gonzales already. The AMPTP meets with him tomorrow. With apologies to David Letterman, here’s our list of the Top 10 things we expect Nick Counter to say to Gonzalez:#10. Loved your work on the WGA negotiations.#9. The last best and final offer is on the table.#8. No, I won’t change the DVD residuals formula.#7. Sure, I’ll be glad to give SAG less work. #6. No, I won’t give them more money for new media.#5. They can take core principles and …#4. I love the Allens. Really! They’re great guys.#3.  You better call Atlanta to find out what’s really happening in SAG.#2. I could have had a V8! #1.
