You're saying Turner is able to do its own production. Im sure it does some, but it wouldn't exist on its own .

It's definitely isn't known for producing content.

Now go back and read what people are actually saying.

Sad to say but don't hold your breath for that to happen.

I started a thread a while back asking which city had the biggest future in the film/TV industry and Atlanta came in second place in the polls. This caused people, namely the person arguing the most on this thread, to attack anyone who dared say that film and TV production and companies would not 100 percent stay in LA for all eternity. I have no idea why people get so violent about this topic.

Because it makes no sense.
I'm sure if LA posters talked about silicon beach and exaggerating what it is, they're would be a **** storm from sf people.
I've seen the same from NYC posters about wall Street jobs going elsewhere.

I remember LA posters telling everyone NC and new Orleans wouldn't last too.

Not sure why you guys and gals continue to go back and forth.

Freddy K, for someone who believes Atlanta (Georgia) are no threat to LA's film prowess, you sure are raising a lot of fuss.

[Freddy K]

There wouldn't be a fuss if people knew what Hollywood really is.
But this forum sticks to filming, which is just one part of it.

Filming is not "one small part of it." Filming is a HUGE part of it! The majority of a film's budget is for PRODUCTION > FILMING! And that money, more and more of it, is being spent in the state of Georgia and NOT California! Last year alone, $1.7 BILLION was spent making movies in Georgia!

As I've stated too many times in this thread to mention, the loss of TV and film jobs in Los Angeles has been real. It's been widely reported in LA media including Vareity, Hollywood Reporter and the LA Times, and it is why the California legislature is under so much pressure to come up with some kind of tax breaks to lure the industry back. These are FACTS. Google it!
