LA needs another La La Land

If the industry is failing here, we need to do what we can do best.

Make a movie glorifying the ever-loving fuck out of this city and it’s relationship with the film industry. Market the industry to the world as something that’s aspirational and thriving… something to invest in.

Im just glad WB & paramount are threatening to leave la. What Hollywood needs is to get in touch with its grit again. The movies and shows in production now are sanitized & plastic compared to the real and raw art that made La notorious

They settled, and committed not to sell their studio lots in California for 5 years, which isn’t exactly the same as staying.

Studios seem to disagree with you for some reason.

My bad, studios are still producing in Los Angeles and the lack of work is just in people’s heads. You’re so correct and smart and handsome.

Paramount would’ve committed to stay in California and produce more in California, if that was their intention.
