At first I thought Jon Voight and Mel Gibson were joining a new Expendables Movie when I read the headline..

But also, I don't think any of the three historically have made it a point to film in the US. Wonder if they will now (not counting on it)

They actually value culture overseas so the government provides incentives to shoot there

Hadn't heard about Louisiana, that's wild! I can't imagine CA/NY following them but I could see other states move in that direction.

GA would be really bad if it goes away there

Yeah, they would lose Marvel, a lot of Netflix and Tyler Perry in a millisecond if tax incentives went away.

This is also an absurd waste of money and government reach
