What is Britain’s version of Hollywood? Where do people go to work in movies and TV in bongstan? (Before they move to Hollywood ofc)
What is Britain’s version of Hollywood? Where do people go to work in movies and TV in bongstan...
AAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
Thye get hired for random BBC tv shows based on people their parents or other family members know.
they just go to fucking Hollywood
Frogge Queen
Pinewood
Isn’t Pinewood just a production studio? They don’t distribute movies or shows
The film industry used to be concentrated around Soho in the west end of London.

It’s not the 1950s anymore
Where do people go to work in movies and TV in bongstan
We don't. Our film industry collapsed in the 80s and has never recovered. All we have left are shitty BBC, ITV, and Channel 4 dramas which are all DEI melodramatic nonsense written by out-of-touch libdem dads.
where do i find a gf with cartoon eyes
What happened in the 80s? I remember there being a lot of British movies in the 00s, the Hugh grant romcoms, 28 days later, dog soldiers etc
how are her eyes so big
Cute

London, like every other industry in the country
allow me to answer you question in song OP
It’s radiation from the wasteland
OI YOU CANT FILM THERE, THAT USED TO BE THE QUARRY ME DA WORKED IN
Is she best actress out of Britain right now?
Several studios collapsed very close to each other due to mismanagement and American competition. The British film industry limps on, but it's a shell of what it use to be when you remember that we use to consistently compete with Hollywood.
Best in the world
That’s sad, I know they make a lot of Hollywood stuff in the UK still but it’s not the same as actually British stuff
she is so pretty I actually want to kill myself
Coronation Street
Where do people go to work in movies and TV in bongstan?
From what I know, there's no real centralisation of the film industry, basically living in greater London is enough, most major cities will have a few film studios, London, Cardiff, Glasgow, etc. Putting it into perspective, the UK is barely bigger than California, there's not really much of a reason to concentrate the entire film industry in one city compared to America.
Probably yeah, can you think of any other newish bong actors as popular as her?
Bollywood
LOL
60 movies were shot in this house between 1951 and 1966
They spin a wheel divided between EastEnders, Coronation Street and Emmerdale, with a 1% chance of being allowed to leave the country and make it outside of soaps like Froggy did
Where do people go to work in movies and TV in bongstan?
London. Everything is London. Anything which isn't London, or one of the handful of small exclaves of London (e.g. Salford) is fucking dead as the dodo. Which is why all of the young British talent attempt to immediately break into the American industry, where there are far more opportunities and far more money to be made.
Her and that alien actress
What's that, Jimmy Saville's house?
quasimodo predicted this
Can't imagine anything being worth going to London.
I love big eyed girls so much
Before they move to Hollywood ofc
they don't normally. LA isn't a very nice place to live, English cites & countryside are ridiculously comfy in comparison.
English cites & countryside are ridiculously comfy in comparison
The countryside maybe, not the cities
Fuck off, our cities are grim except a few meme biscuit tin places like York. Any way people go to Hollywood for the massive money regardless
compared with the US, they are leafy park-filled, car-independent paradises. as long as you don't literally live on a shitty estate they're very nice.
London excluded. And Manchester. And Bristol. And Liverpool. And basically every city
Nukes Dr Who by making a Female Doctor
I don't really think the people who made Dr Who realized that their fanbase was made up entirely of lonely single women
people go to Hollywood for the massive money
the phrasing was where people move.
a lot of filming for Hollywood and Netflix happens in the UK anyway you don't have to physically move.
you whinging shitters have no basis for comparison. move to LA whenever you like, house prices here are high enough.
OI MATE YOU AVE A LICENSE TO QUARRY IN THAT QUARRY
If you don't like shit you must love Satan's butthole
All cities are terrible.
There is no real Hollywood equivilent. British film/tv media is based on insane nepotism between old acting/aristocratic families and you basically have to have gone to the right private schools (Eton, St Pauls etc) then the right drama colleges to even get to the audition stage.
Very rare for people from working class backgrounds to ever make it anywhere in UK media. Just 12 private schools in the UK are accountable for like 95%+ of Britians rich/elite.
Everything in the UK is centered in London, for a while there was some stuff going on around Cardiff in the early 2000s due to cheap production, but if you want to actually act, you need to be in London, have an Oxbridge accent, have the right family contacts, go to the correct high school, then the right theatre/drama college and you might just then get a position if you let a gay BBC producer fuck your ass while you are in a K-Hole.

Footlights alumni
every film industry is in the same position because ideas are real the bottleneck and you can't ensure a guaranteed supply of them per year.
hence we're posting in a thread for a netflix person not a star of traditional films.
The British film industry is a few steps ahead of where the American film industry will be in ten years. A completely incestuous shitshow.
What about Below-the-line jobs?
Do people on this board really think a bunch of hollywood megastars show up on a streetcorner to shoot a movie, some ultrarich producers buy a script and get a director, they set up some chairs with names on them and it just manifests itself?
which are the 12 private schools? I feel like you probably have the list saved somewhere.
In its defence, at least the uk industry encourages actual talent. All the nepo kids have a background in stage acting since their highschool days because drama is a consistent subject in the curriculum.
Contrast that with the us where the only male actors that have ever seen a stage before they leave highschool are literal homos who were part of glee club. And where all the women are just instahos who moved to la and got fucked by the right person.
As a general rule, UK actors are much better at acting than their US counterparts

List of girls schools
en.wikipedia.org
Skip down to UK for list of boys schools.
also what is ignoring is that London has the largest stage audience on earth. there is actual demand for actors, its not just because its a good place to suck up to Will and Kate or whateverthefuck.
going to Private School is helpful because they have actual spare money for proper arts education, while the comprehensive system has to cut back there first. and Private School increases your chances of getting into Oxbridge simply because the tuition tends to be better which potentially opens the same connections as Ivy League colleges in the US. it's not a conspiracy.
What about Below-the-line jobs?
What about them? They're also centralised on London, and feature film opportunities specifically are rare so the people in those roles spend most of their time working on TV anyway
ty fren
Issue is you get British stories and actors that are only a very specific cut of hyper clique, mega rich UK that only exists around Brighton, Oxford, Cambridge, Bath, Mendip and the Cotswolds. It doesn't help all these people are TERMINALLY woke as well and are obsessed with rewriting British history as the history of elite blacks and indians they interact with.
There is a reason we still haven't had any decent followup to British classics like Four Lions or Human Traffic, because pretty much nobody exists to tell those working class stories in the industry anymore.
that's just part of the decline in the arts generally.
I blame vidya and the internet.
Four Lions or Human Traffic
by gen xers who didn't grow up with computers.
popular = good
Hmm
You don't think so desu?
That's a genuine problem I'm not denying. I'm just saying that we can at least be thankful that the nepo fucks can actually act, instead of the us system where that's an afterthought at best.
The film industry (across the entire world) is absolutely fucked from the top down. And no one that can seems to have any incentive to fix it. Working class actors in the uk struggle to get cast due to their accent, nevermind lacking the time to devote to learning to act and the financial cushion to be able to go months at a time working only part time. Filmmakers struggle to get funding unless they're friends with the right producers and attended the right film schools, and even then are only "allowed" to make banal shit. Producers aren't allowed to greenlight interesting shit unless they have a team of consultants who can confirm that it's a safe investment and won't threaten their job. Films struggle to get sold to distributors unless they star recognisable talent, have huge pr budgets or are willing to accept terrible predatory deals that will fuck the film over. Distributors struggle to get indie films into stores or onto streaming sites where the site wants full ownership and control.
The entire model's fucked at the moment.
And the worst part?
It's still a multi billion dollar industry. There's mountains of cash in it. But that money is all taken up by a tiny select few who contribute almost nothing.
British Hollywood is just reusing the same 5 actors over and over since the fucking 1940s
They are building way too many studios for it to be profitable
Used to be The Bill, Casualty and london's burning
Can't working class actors just change their accents?
Shepperton Studios
That's what they used to do, back in the day
where do brits go for--
London. The answer is always London.
The sole exception to this rule is for making music, in which case Manchester is also an acceptable answer.
Utterly despise how awful most British people are at speaking, the internet really woke me up to this. It's so embarrassing watching a random youtube video and people simply can't pronounce their T's or 'th' and they mumble and they slur their words and they are just so awful. If I was prime minister I would have elocution lessons in all schools.
Yeah. I'm pretty sure a lot do. But as a brit let me tell you that the accent is just a generalisation for describing how northerners stand out.
If you grew up in the south or went to a posh school, you'll very naturally mesh a lot easier with other people who grew up in similar circumstances. It's not just an accent.
The 00's was the last time the British film industry was British rather than just servicing Hollywood studios
the people who say aloominoom and tomaytoe criticising brit enunciation
el oh el
We dont think about you at all
I'm not American but I'm from Cheshire area and simply wasn't aware how bad most people spoke, especially how bad southerners spoke. It's embarrassing and unironically limiting to people, there are people who could be popular entertainers or content creators but they're heavily limited because they pronounce 'th' as 'f' or 'v' which is like nails on a chalkboard
Um sweety, all dialects and accents are hecking beautiful and valid ok! Now, just let the middle classes continue to speak properly and prosper while the plebs live in the runt estates with their unique accents.
Yeah, whenever I catch bits of TV in waiting rooms or the gym or whatever, I can't help but notice how poor the diction of most of the current crop of presenters is
MLE should not be allowed on TV, simple as
aggressive frog
insane fucking profile lmao
I've been to LA. I live in Manchester. Believe me, LA is better.
her eyes are so huge her side profile can't even hide it
whe is beautiful, she is like anime irl
I hate it when National Geographic (before Fox ruined it) started to use non RP narrators. I don't want to hear a drunk Scot or Irish or Scouser narrate the mating dance of a southern Japanese flamingo.
Brown eyes = brown ethnicity. End of story. Her eyes are green so she gets a pass, even if she is a bit weird looking.
NOOO YOU CAN'T JUST MARRY AND PROCREATE WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW, LIKE AND HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH AHEEEEEEEE HELP ME LAURENCE FOX INCEL MAN!!!!!!

I believe she was in a thread seeing us call her a frog and saying
You have so much hate in yor heart
It's all 19th century dramas
not that anon but im Irish in Ireland and have always been obsessed with English women. I should have went to england when I was young and attractive to get a bong wife. Keeley Hawes is my favourite bong. But I also like loads more like Keira Knightley and Emma Watson and Daisy Ridley and Emily Blunt and Ella of course and so on. I'm too old and ugly and bald now to bother going to England.
she played a young keira knightley in that?
i doubt ella even knows what Anon Babble is, but i have a suspicion that someone close to her browses these threads
Bread and beef stew
Good taste
Why is she so smol?
Pinewood
Production and Set Designer of Hammer was a master in making the most of a small budget.
i will never forgive hollywood for destroying the british film industry, i hope there are more wildfires
I live Ella and would absolutely brutalize her womb with artillery
