Off-topic, but since you're familiar, and I've always been curious ... is there any pressure on actors, directors, down to the craft services guys NOT to cross the picket line? I would think the threat of a total shutdown would help the writers out tremendously.

Short answer is yeah, there's enormous pressure. Movies and TV shows with completed scripts will often shoot anyway (see the aforementioned Transformers 2). Everyone below the line is basically told cross the pickets or get replaced. It's case-by-case basis with above the line actors/directors, but contracts can make that tricky... and frankly, they want to get paid.
There's two big problems with these strikes... one, as you've suggested, the guilds often don't cooperate, meaning SAG, the DGA, and PGA will take a backseat, hands-off approach. The other involves those above-the-line folks. Often the (wealthy/famous) producer-writers, writer-directors, showrunners, etc. will negotiate to end the strike quickly on behalf of the rest of the "working class" writers (via the WGA, which they are members). This leads to massive compromises, and the ATTMP anticipates this. They're probably thinking it'll happen again.
Anyway, I don't see Jeepers Creepers coming to HHN, for what it's worth. It's a super cult property without a lot of pull or apparent affection in the halls of A&D. Controversy with the director/new installment won't help.
It's much like when SAG-AFTA went on strike a few months ago, pertaining to voice actors and performance actors.
Yeah its a veeeeery big stretch but I'm not saying he is correct I just hope he is

Not sure if it could ever work, but a Simpson's Holloween overlay on the ride would get me to ride it again hahaYES! Treehouse of Horrors V: The Shinning
The Mist is returning in a series on Spike TV...Wouldn't mind seeing that adapted either

the reason they dont do a tree house of horrors overlay is because the twirl and hurl ride is a tree house of horrors ride.They even show clips in the que.

That would seem to be a reason that would help if they decided to do a Treehouse of Horrors overlay. It would fit perfectly.

i'm sure they planned it and considered at one point in time. my question is, is it the amount of money and time it'll take to produce it is what stopping them?
It's possible yes. and my personal option they should because that would make the ride a people eater which will reduce the wait time by a couple mins.
- they have to get the voice actors
- a script
- programmers

Speaking of overlays...
Anyone else think we might actually get some HP seasonal stuff this year?
I know that this has been discussed to death in past years, but hear me out...
Yesterday they announced the Holiday theming that will start in November, and during that video Mike mentioned to stay tuned for some more HP announcements coming later this year.
We know that Singapore did Death Eaters last year, so they very well could find their way over here (I know contracts may be different).
Also, if they have projection mapping set up for November/December, wouldn't it make sense to just install the equipment two months earlier, and work some HHN stuff in for September/October, and then change the programming?

I really kinda doubt that would stop them if they wanted to do an Treehouse of Horror overlay.

Whoops...what is Tokyo? All I know if it was a lot farther to go to than Orlando.
Osaka, in particular.
And if Potter has a larger influence for HHN, it'll be in Diagon Alley for Orlando.

When The Simpsons was being developed, a Treehouse of Horrors overlay was part of the plan. When the started running into contract disputes with the talent to voice the ride, it started delaying the animation and complicating the ability to create TWO films. So we're stuck with one.
