5th UPDATE, 6:25 PM: Now Amblin Partners has joined the anti-Georgia chorus over the state’s pending religious liberty legislation. “Amblin Partners is committed to diversity and inclusion for all,” the company led by Steven Spielberg. “We would be disappointed to see our pipeline of production end at the Georgia border because of this legislation. While we are aware that Governor Deal has not yet made a decision, we stand with our industry colleagues in strongly urging him to veto this bill.”

Uh oh … might have to cancel my Netflix subscription.
OOpps..Kneel Before Zod. Hollyweird has benefited Gov. Deal’s use of GA tax dollars to subsidize production.
Netflix comes out against religious freedom.
Steven Spielberg hates the people of Georgia.
Disney has threatened the same thing.
“Amblin Partners is committed to diversity and inclusion for all,”
...uh, no. Not if someone disagrees with your perverted idea of “diversity and inclusion”.
I’ve been thinking about trying HULU anyway.
#EconomicTerrorism
5-10 other larger states need to follow suit to the point where these threats become empty. If the NCAA, NBA and companies like this limit their options in half for events and offices, it is they who will fall to pressure. We need IN, FL, TX, AZ, OK, and a handful of others who have one or more professional teams and are host to championship events to step up.
I’ve got both and watch them both. Netflix has been coming up with some good stand alone programs, but I won’t hesitate to drop them if they drop Georgia.
i have been thinking about cancelling them anyway
STAY THE HELL OUT OF POLITICS if you want my money, businesses
Democrats out here in California are driving large business entities out of state like they are some modern day St. Patrick and they never back down. You never see them rewrite their freedom killing legislation because major corporations like Nissan, Toyota, and now Karl’s Jr. threaten to leave and do leave. Republicans cower in fear any time a corporation whines. Republicans should stand their ground and let the CEO explain why homosexuality is more important than a good business climate and the cost of moving. Although, I honestly believe this is just more of the same theater the Republicans use to make us believe they are trying to do what we elected them to, but the forces they are up against are just too difficult.
Will Netflix take all the Gays (Homosexuals) with them.
I’ll cancel my order with Netflix either way.
Good for Netflix.
I say this even as I oppose their view point. But an independent corporation has every right to move out of a state where they disagree with the laws of that state. I don’t really care where Netflix moves to or why. Fine with me.
Meanwhile, I LOVE the move by North Carolina to do this. I hope a lot more states copy them. Not that it is a terribly enforceable law, but it is a step in the right direction. Anything that stymies the progress of these freaks is OK with me.
Why cant you just download by torrent? Every show on earth is available. I cannot understand why people pay to subscribe.
Disney is another business using the peoples money to abuse them.
No more Deliverance movies ...
Move it to San Francisco as far as I care.
