Is Atlanta replacing LA as the cultural center of the US? (movies, shop)

[Razor123]

Hi all.
As of now it seems as though LA is the accepted "cultural capitol" of the U.S.A, at least on this forum. Yes I am aware that similar post have been made they were much more specific (as in Atlanta becoming "Hollywood"). I'm asking in a broader sense. Not just the movie business, but in music, etc. What I've noticed is that a lot of MTV productions are out of Georgia. And a lot of famous pop-culture musicians originate out of Atlanta, as well. I'll admit that I haven't been to either city, but would like to see other outsiders' perspectives as well (hence I didn't post this in the Georgia forum.). So what do you think? Is Atlanta replacing Los Angles as the country's "cultural center"?

You're kidding, right?

What idiot thinks LA still isn't the capital. Atlanta is only the cultural capital if you're ghetto.

Yes, because only the god movies come from Atlanta

New York City has WAY more filming happening than Atlanta does, but LA is still the "entertainment" capital over both.

You may be able to argue who is second place, and I'd put NYC ahead of ATL.

Please provide examples of people on C-D stating that LA is the 'cultural' capital of the US? I think LA is the film and tv production capital for sure, but 'culture' and 'entertainment' mean all sorts of things.
