How would this even work?
Tariffs
Will they tariff CGI outsourced to India?
It didn't occur to me right now that this could've been intended as another barb in the trade war with Canada, because Toronto and Vancouver are major production bases for Hollywood.
India is best friends with Mr President Donald Trump and the United States of America.
I mean it obviously would mean productions made outside the us would be charged more for distribution rights in the US. I dont know how much it costs to distribute your film etc, its going to be probably a lot for a big cinematic release, but streaming too will cost money and physical release as well. I think this is more aimed at the US production companies using canadian/brit & euroland to make shit rather than independent international filmakers, i mean it would fuck them but most international films dont have a massive reach into the us market anyway, its definately aimed at us companies shifting their shit outside hollywood and countries with viable production crews, which in bongland and most of europe is much better than it was 20/30 years ago.
JEET ANON LOOK OUT FOR NUKE 12 O'CLOCK
Pirates always win baby
Quit fucking posting about this dumbass. We're here to talk about movies and kino. He doesn't understand his asshole from his eyeballs.
Work?
Donald Trump was in a couple of movies and tv shows so isnt he on topic?
77 million people voted for this... lol
Thats an EXPORT tax you idiot. If you want to tax films being made in america selling to China you need to tax film EXPORTS
So, would the film distributers have to pay it? You don’t bring a movie into a port. It’s mostly now just a file
Same way his other tariffs, ie they pull them out of their ass with complete nonsense and then expect it to work because they don’t understand how tariffs work.
Trump got the idea to reopen Alcatraz because he watched that movie recently.
He’s like a fucking baby

As a film worker in Hawaii ... cool? Maybe we'll lose less production to New Zealand as a stand-in for us. Chief of War, Wrecking Crew ... then again, Moana got largely moved to Atlanta after the SAG strike.
But I'm sure the dumbass thinks all the shooting, modeling & compositing, editing, scoring, and such happens in one room.
Taxation is Theft.
Why not simply bust the Hollywood cartels that make domestic filming ruinously expensive?
Instead of placing tariffs, why not have tax incentives to film in the US instead?
Surely whoever took that photo noticed how much of a supervillain Trump looks like in it.
it would mean to play and distribute the movie the company would need to pay 100% more money.
Because it quickly becomes a race to the bottom.
It’s the official portrait so it’s probably intentional.
Are you fags ready to admit that Trump is genuinely retarded and not playing 5-D chess?
How would this even work?
low-level kino wagies that lost their jobs to bongs and romanians get their jobs back
big schnoz accountants seethe
It's most likely Trump lashing out after getting some - but not all - information from staff.
That Rob Lowe clip is going viral and combined with LA voting two weeks ago to make low budget productions more affordable and easier has led to people who don't know how production works to talk about how it is another industry taking jobs from Americans and putting them overseas.
Which is accurate.
But tariffs aren't going to do a damn thing. Tax incentives are. I just wrapped a small indie that was going to film in Canada, but since they got a California tax incentive they could afford to stay local and hire local. Prepping for another one now that shoots in August that was supposed to film in Georgia, but got approved for another incentive so they can stay local.
It was cheaper for Verbinski to build a Los Angeles set in South Africa than it was to film in Los Angeles for his newest one.
tariff
I'm incredibly annoyed with the person who taught him this word.
Shrieking effeminate Democrat Meltie Thread #376778
Holy shit, AGAIN?
TDS is alive & well.
Admitting won't change anything at this point. Burgerland has decided to undo itself, for some reason. Now we just observe the process.
They already do that, and it doesn’t actually help the local economy offering those incentives because they actually end up losing more money than what it brings in, so it basically is just helping studios to not spend as much money. And if you want the government to subsidise filmmaking then why don’t you just do that, there’s better ways to do it than offer tax breaks that end up hurting the economy for private profit.
America is LE OVER because I don't like Le Orange Man!!!
Cool, just like the past 10 straight years you've been shrieking this?
Two more weeks right? Just two more weeks?
Hallmark movies are already shit, so who cares?
NOOOOOOO STOP COSTING THE BILLIONAIRES SLIGHTLY MORE MONEY!!!!
The FUCK happened to Democrats?
All tariffs are paid by the end consumer, retard.
Do many people import movies anymore?
Hallmark and Lifetime movies are beneficial for younger crew. They're essentially trade school for people starting out. You get to make mistakes that would get you fired from bigger productions, but instead you learn from them.
So are taxes. And yet those are good?
Dumbass.
im tired of this fucking guy and his tariffs bullshit. i get it, but dont fucking flip flop day after day after day i tmakes you look like a fucking pussy
t.
Drumpf is a MEAN, STUPID POOPY-HEAD!!!
I am OUTRAGED over Weekly Outrage #40375 that I will forget in a week!!!
America will collapse any day now! Y-You'll see! Just T-TWO MORE WEEKS!!!
Every fucking thread is the fucking same: Indistinguishable from a Comment Section on the latest gay SNL turd of skit plopped into YouTube.
no argument
Democrats are clinically, provably less intelligent & more mentally-ill than their Republican counterparts, and they will never win another Election again.
Just put hands over your eyes and pretend the destruction of government agencies isn’t happening. Air safety being gutted? Doesn’t matter, it’s completely normal that planes crash. Gutting food safety? It’s normal and actually good that people get sick from food they consume. Disease outbreaks are not tracked, mitigated and told to the public? This is what we need, bro. More kids need to die from measles. Also we want polio and other preventable illnesses to come back because ewwww vaccines are evil. The stock market and people’s retirement funds getting wiped out? Good! Old people should not retire, they should die on the job. Social security being gutted and people entitled to them should be cut off because lol I’m never going to be poor when I’m elderly so fuck seniors. Deporting people to foreign prisons without due process, this is fine because it could never impact me personally even though erasing due process means nobody is safe but who cares about how law enforcement works.
Tariffs are a tax on the poor dumbshit.
Poor person spends 90% of his income on food and basics. Saves 10%.
Rich person spends 10% of his income on food snd basics. Saves 90%.
A tariff taxes a higher percentage of a poor person's income than a rich person that's why it's a regressive tax. (Like VAT)
Income taxes were made precisely to prevent that situation which punishes the poor but Donnie now wants to turn back the clock to 1890. If you are not in the top income bracket you ain't gonna benefit from this you are just an useful idiot.
Keep your froggy French cinéma, with your black and white scenes of ennui, out of our shallow and artificially cheery country
What? I didn't mention taxes, you bumbling retard. Take your medicine.
blah blah blah
You still didn't address my point how the taxes on the rich you clamor for are suddenly bad when they benefit the American Worker.
Why say it to other people? Say to to yourself in the mirror, every morning.
le democrats have no arguments
is given an argument
proceeds to ignore the entire post and spergs out some bullshit about how this is good acthually
lol dumbshit
You don’t understand how tariffs work.
etend the destruction of government agencies
How's that not a good thing when those agencies are shit?
Bootlicking retard faggot.
Didn't bother reading the rest of your screeching, effeminate Eurotranny blog-post, btw.
You faggots have been going "T-T-TWO MORE WEEKS!" for ten years now. You're ALREADY the joke, faggot. The only reason you don't get it is because your fat ass is in an Internet Echo-Chamber.
Fucking retard.
le democrats have no arguments
Correct.
Your dumb ass probably also thinks that men can get pregnant.
It means everyone in America is just going to start pirating shit.
Nah, that's you.
I was just pretending to be retarded
Ok, retard.
I didn't mention taxes
So? I did, dumbshit. Does your ESL ass not know how an argument works?
How exactly is lack of food inspection good, you mouth breathing dimwit? How is getting rid of people of air travel safety good when it causes more airplane crashes? How is it good that the government to prevent the CDC to tell the public about outbreaks and the guy in charge of the country’s health and safety is encouraging people to not get vaccinated which will directly lewd to disease outbreaks that kill children, like the current out of control measles epidemic that has spread to several states and first time in two decades there are children dying from a disease that is entirely preventable?
People didn't vote against this because 'wut about palestine' is dumber imo
Noooooo it's different when I do it because the revenue goes to Transexual Dance-Events in Botswanna rather than supporting American workers!!!!
How is getting rid of people of air travel safety good when it causes more airplane crashes?
Proof that that has happened?
Remember when we had three plane crashes the week before Trump was even in Office and you called anyone who noticed it a "conspiracy-theorist", kek?
It's funny how you guys have no actual rebuttals. You asked for an argument, got one and have been coping ever since.
Now you understand why the income tax exists, you are welcome.
That's a presidential trait nowadays
EVERYONE hired by these bloated, corrupt money-laundering agencies is 100% necessary and if you fire the DEI Hires that get paid yearly salaries to sit around doing nothing then PLANES WILL FALL OUT OF THE SKY!
Fucking weird how DEI and the Competancy Crisis has caused more plane crashes than Drumpfler's evil nazi budget cuts have.
It's funny how you guys have no actual rebuttals.
You ignoring a rebuttal (likely because your ESL and can't read) =/= "not having a rebuttal"
Seriously, watching Democrats scrounge and circle the wagons for the billionaires they claim to hate has been hilarious. Probably the best part of Trump's
Presidency so far. He's LITERALLY got you retards setting fire to electric-car dealerships at this point. You're so unbelievably backwards, inconsistent and easy to control.
wtf is this retarded cheeto doing? Stop doing retarded shit and do the one thing you're elected for, reversing mass immigration.
Yes, 77 million people voted to watch bloated retards like you cry over basically nothing.
Better entertainment than anything that has come out of Hollywood in the past 20 years, I'll give it that.
They have been doing mass firings left and right for the past couple of months, something people like you keep cheering. That has included hundreds of people who’re FAA staff. How is that good?
