I’m still bitter about her ruining the Amazon deal in our district. The older and wiser folks in the film/TV business know they would’ve built stages to take advantage of the tax credit.
Thanks for the info. I had forgotten that Amazon made it's own stuff. Pretty good quality from what I hear. Our own Cleveland has been cornering some of the market from Hollywood. Several of the Marvel movies shot scenes on Cleveland. Their always standing in for New York City too. I know. AOC. Some poor starving kid in Africa could be eating the food we waste on her. Just imagine it.
California has largely taxed Hollywood out of Hollywood. Many states, such as NY State and NYC have captured production work through issuing tax credits up to 30 cents on the dollar and 40 cents on the dollar for below the line costs on TV shows and movie production, below the line costs includes manpower. It’s actually created a lot of jobs and has been great for our economy. Amazon makes their own content. It would have been insanely stupid for Amazon to have made the deal and not build their own sound stages, as it stands now they have to pay for them, if the deal went through, they’d have space for studios they don’t have to pay rent for. Would have translated into more high paying jobs for New Yorkers but AOC squashed it with her ignorance.

Fuck amazon
Hey, No arguments there. However, more film/TV studios = more jobs. Union Film/TV work is a good racket to get into.
Just curious. How would the Amazon deal have translated into movie/TV studios?

Propaganda arm of the cabal tho it's probably a blight crawling with pedovore ghouls
It wasn't their film and TV studio, it was an HQ for white collar jobs.
