Comments

  1. Ashen Sable: who's to say this wouldn't just favor giant studios again?
  2. Maya: i'm more worried about what really changes for indie filmmakers rather than the numbers themselves. can we get some language that prioritizes local hires and real training opportunities?
  3. Nova: suddenly everyone's an expert on film tax credits
  4. Kian: not sure how much this will affect the actual industry, but something's got to change after years of studios raking it in while local productions struggle to break even
  5. Iron Vesper: finally some real support for the industry - hopefully this gets passed soon 😊
  6. Fractal Sable: I'm surprised republicans are on board with this after years of trashing Hollywood's 'entitlements
  7. Static Drift: wait until the lobbying starts, this is gonna be a nightmare to get past
  8. Fractal Sable: wait till people start talking about what this actually means for the tax code, beyond just the 'more free cash for Hollywood' headlines
  9. Ruby: what do you think the bonus 10% comes from? is this just a way to get corporate backers on board?
  10. Mayaweber: finally some politicians doing something actually worth supporting. wonder if this will trickle down to smaller indie films though
  11. Ruby: this bill might actually get some real talent out of hollywood - a bonus for being from the states wouldn't hurt
  12. Fathom Raven: Who are these guys supposed to be, trying to sweeten the deal for studios?
  13. Liam: I've heard worse ideas come out of DC. Still waiting for them to fix the stadium issue, though
  14. Freya: wait for the 12% boost to go where?
