NC does have a large film industry. I think every major city in NC has a few film studios and the largest is in Wilmington, Screen Gems which produces TV shows and movies.
"Over the past 27 years, more than 800 films and 15 television series and numerous documentaries and commercials have been made possible with the assistance of the North Carolina Film Office."

Not to mention the show that almost every mom and female teenager in America watches. . . One Tree Hill also in Wilmington
so its definitely large, well I have spent the last 30 minutes trying to look for a ranking system for the states film industry but I cant so if anyone funs across it please post it!!
Baton Rouge? Im sorry but I would have to disagree. North Carolina has the 2nd largest film industry behind California, hell even small town like Shelby NC have film studios, they dont make a difference in your city developing honestly,nor Colleges, or Universities. Hell even ports dont make that much of a budge except the potential to hurt a city economical, just like it has Charleston and its been one of the biggest since the founding of the country, but you still see Charleston is still only about 120,000 thousand at the most.
Baton Rogue also has a significant petrochemical industry sector, which helps it as well. This is why you see Baton Rogue rated pretty favorably in a couple of "best cities" lists recently, along with Houston, Dallas, Oklahoma City, etc. Energy is the industry of the (foreseeable) future. I think that industry above all the others puts Baton Rogue in a favorable position, and the economic stability that the port, institutions of higher education, and state government add only strengthen its position.
Columbus, is definitely a city and region that is poised to become one of Americas "new" major cities.
I've read and have heard so much more praise for this city ... than I have heard negative commentaries.
Columbus offers:
an excellent quality of life
has an excellent infrastructure
a very diversified economy
Major employers that are headquartered here include: Nationwide Insurance Companies, State Auto Insurance, Safe Auto Insurance, Abercrombie & Fitch & Huntington Bank ( just to mention a few )
There is also a HUGE "D.F.A.S." ( Federal Govt ) campus located just east
of downtown.
The city also offers beautiful residential areas within it's boundaries and
has rapidly developing suburban areas that are quite appealing.
The metro area is easily traveled due to an expansive and impressive network of freeways.
Being the capitol of Ohio certainly doesn't hurt the city at all either.
Columbus is most often compared to Charlotte ... and I feel that is an equal comparison.
Charlottes growth "is" outpacing that of Columbus ... however, multitudes are beginning to "rediscover" some of the midwests "hidden jewels", and Columbus is most definitely a city / region to watch for in Americas future.
I would also give an honorable mention to Columbus' nearby sibling of
Indianapolis.

I've never heard of Naked Stick but I've heard of Red Stick (Baton Rouge).
