Comment on Trump says ordering '100% tariff' on all movies produced abroad
thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works 1 week agoNFI, but this feels like such a “Trump just found out that this is the first time since the unwitting of Hollywood that a foreign film is on track to be the highest grossing film of the year (Ne Jha 2)” moment, and this is own daft knee-jerk reaction.
But by imposing a tariff (ie. Sales Tax), would it not artificially inflate foreign film box offices, making them out-perform American films even more?!

A lot of older people refuse to recognize animation as a medium for storytelling beyond kids cartoons, so a knee-jerk reaction wouldn’t surprise me.
