Los Angeles boycotting Arizona. Maybe we should just boycott Hollywood for a few months.

Good idea, but I have been doing that for years, boycotting Hollywood.

I did notice that the local LA tv web site ran a poll and so far 91 % don’t support the boycott

Notice how the weirdos were all a-dither about saving the Hollywood sign.

Would they be so worried about saving the cross in the Mohave.

Frankly, I won’t be buying, renting or going to any movies for the foreseeable future.

We can boycott them.

It is the city of LA that boycoted AZ, not the cities of Hollywood, Malibu, Pacific Heights, Beverly Hills, Studio City, ect. These cities are independent, governed by their own city councils

Now since I’ve seen Iron Man 2, I don’t need them.

What other movie has a line like Tony Stark turning to Pepper Potts and saying, “I’m tired of the liberal agenda.”?

This will never work. Want people to boycott Hollyweird? It’s like asking everyone to give up their cell phone.

I have boycotted Hollywood since they went liberal and trashy many years ago. If I told what movie I last saw, you would really call me old. Same for the music industry.

One thing about boycotts -

if they don’t have much effect,
you’ve shot your wad.

You have no further leverage.

Individuals boycotting anything in an unorganized fashion serves no purpose other than self satisfaction. To be effective, a boycott must be large groups, publicized, and get lots of press. As well as to have impact great enough to hit the pursestrings.

Movie companies had a great year last year compared to the rest of the economy, and are expected to do better this year. So if there's to be an effective boycott, it must be organized.

If California wants to screw Arizona financially, they can always send our legislature over there to run it.

There you go with your logic! People here call for boycotts of Hollywood if someone sneezes wrong.
