Especially when they don't clearly define what "made out of the united states" actually means. Might be time for international markets to take trump to trade court over it though: this is blatantly denying them market access.
Yea, seems very poorly thought out. How many US funded productions are shot in Vancouver or New Zealand? I have a feeling he just hates Japan and South Korea. Biggest foreign films in the US market, box office wise, seem to be from those two countries.
Aside from maybe Kemp, who even asked for this?
Xenophobes (well, I don't think they asked for it outright, but I'm sure they're not complaining that they're getting it).
Oh, when you said he was going to destroy the film industry I thought you meant all the other countries are going to respond with retaliatory tariffs and tank Hollywood's overseas market. And I was frankly all for that because the hell with America's cultural imperialism and movies that cost so much to make that they need to succeed on a global scale to make a profit.
But if this is going to block Hollywood from outsourcing or even filming on location overseas... well I'm just going to laugh even harder as the industry collapses even harder.

I've heard of the "Night of the Long Knives" before, but only ever described in an ominous and vague way that made it sound like it involved rounding up everyone in the government and military who opposed him or wasn't 100% on board with his rise to power and having them murdered, possibly in a single literal night. An "Order 66" moment, if you will.
Which makes me wonder, was there anyone who didn't take the oath? And what happened to them? Did they resign, or were they executed on the spot?
