[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]He's saying that if you make a movie elsewhere, doesn't matter where the director is from, the movie will be taxed when shown in the US. Another way to stick it to the taxpayers.[/quote] But, um, how does that work when the film distributors get paid based upon a percentage of boxoffice revenue? Normal film rental paid by cinemas in the US is ~50-55%. Does the percentage go up? [/quote] They would have to apply tax to the distribution, which would be pushed on to the consumer. A PP had it right, movie theaters would have to charge "foreign" films more, but not sure how they would do that for movies that shoot partly in the US and partly in another country. Who would determine that the movie is 51% made in USA so the tariff would not apply. Trump is truly f*n bizarre and stupid.[/quote] Well, tbh most people watch movies at home, but in theaters. He must have played golf with some weirdos over the weekend. [/quote]
