If Hollywood’s gone, they construct a Hollywood museum, cost overruns into the billions, delays into the decades, and try to get the federal government to bail them out. What else would they do?

None of this is going to change if they keep electing the same kind of leaders. Why do none of them understand this?

Because BEING A LIBERAL requires a special brand of stupid.

I remember some movie (a while ago), which talked about that there are 200,000 (two hundred thousands) of registered would be actors living in LA!
Most of them bussing tables and playing some gigs in commercials, waiting to be discovered.

This is (was) a huge part of LA.

Sorry, but the Detroit analogy is a false analogy.

Free Traitors™ off shored the auto industry to foreign lands and impoverished the city of Detroit. The move out of LA will be to the benefit of another US state thus keeping the wealth creation of the movie industry INSIDE the USA. BIG DIFFERENCE.

They are small beautiful enclaves of the wealthy—and then miles and miles of wasteland.

One of the many "benefits" of one side "free" trade, gloBULLism, and off shoring. Thank a Free Traitor™.

Correct. Last night my wife and I enjoyed a pre ww2 Charlie Chan movie. Laughed through most of it. Simple no message movie. Most pre 60s movies were made for entertainment at a theater as there was little TV or no DVDs, cable, etc. People went to be entertained.

,,, the world’s countries should put 200% tariffs on Hollywood for the crap it turns out.

SNL is based in NYC

Did it ‘grow’, or was it spliced in?

Well...they shot a LOT of scenes OUTSIDE, in those days; even built indoor sets with NO roofs, to get that light.


there was one of the first movies shooting a scene at night. A light source is needed. Thus the connection of burning crosses and the klu klux klan

Klansmen went to the movies and learned that is what they should do at meetings.

Now, all movies are shot at night or at least in the dark.

It’s the style among chic directors.

And not only can you not see what’s hppening, you can’t hear it either
