Even that tariff thing can be positive for us already. At least here in Germany, big Hollywood productions snag a lot of public funding, because they produce a small amount of the film in Germany. That money could’ve gone to smaller, national productions (that actually need the money) instead and maybe, if Hollywood has a disincentive to produce outside of 'Murrica, that funding can actually go to someone who needs it.
Or they’ll just fund the same lame ‘comedy’ films with the same jokes, same directors and same actors as the last 20 years again. Because why would they ever take a risk on sth new and creative, if the same old works just about well enough

Nah, that would be shooting ourselves in the foot. Except for the Brits our movie and TV industry is dogshit. I’d rather pay more for US entertainment then see funding wasted on our domestic industry.
