looks like movie viewing may just go up in price.....

trump apparently wants to add a 100% tariff to any u.s. made movie not filmed in america. the reason why we here in bc have a decent movie industry is because of the major tax credits we give them and how far the usd goes in canada...oh well 🤷

In Taiwan and Paris and New York and Los Angeles during my youth there was a vibrant film culture, plenty of opportunities to act and make films. The population was free, housed, fed and not working all the time! Not like you really want authentic art NOW! You can buy some substitutes. God KNOWS you can't house or feed a population without enslaving it and abusing it! Art comes from free people. Not from workers.

Another nonsensical tarriff. He's protecting an industry the US dominates. Seems to be no rythm or reason to his policies. But it will hurt BC yes, same with Toronto.

I wonder if he has the percentages figured...
Many, many movies are filmed primarily in the us, with scenes shot in others countries.
And what of documentary films? Gonna be difficult to do a film about the Brazilian rain forest on a mocked up set in hollywood.

@Carla As usual, just zero thought.

@JimboSaturn thought requires effort.

Makes no sense. They're filmed somewhere in BC, but they pretend it's Seattle, LA, San Francisco, Portland, Wyoming....

If they can pay people $40 million for a months work they can spend the money to film in the USA.
@CougarLisa trickle down effect.. a 🍿will cost 20 dollars 😬
