Trump’s plan to make Hollywood’s excellent plan again imposes a 100% tariff on “all movies and all movies made on foreign land,” which puts the industry’s questions far outweigh the answer. Like: Huh? Or: Is this even legal? And our personal favorite: Where is the TV?

"We hope to make movies in the United States again!" Trump shouted Sunday night. “The film industry in the United States is dying very quickly. Other countries are offering various incentives to keep our film producers and studios away from the United States. Many other areas in Hollywood and many other areas within the United States are undermining. This is a concerted effort by other countries.

By Monday morning, Trump's news contact had a little bit back.

"While no final decision on foreign film tariffs has been made, the administration is exploring all options to achieve President Trump's directives to protect our country's national and economic security while making Hollywood great again," White House spokesman Kush Desai told The New York Times. Hollywood Reporter on Monday.

For those who score at home, this is the (perhaps) tariffs on “movies,” “movies,” and “movies.” There is no mention of the series, nor is there any words like "content" used.

This may be through design, and Trump only plans to impose tariffs on films produced overseas and imported into the United States, or there is no rhyme, reason or idea to devote himself to Trump's word choices. These seem to be the same choice.

Hollywood Reporter Ask Desai's TV aspect. He did not respond.

The answer will be good because it is an important difference. Americans consume more internationally produced TV (in any language) than movies. Does Trump recognize this industry? If so, why? Because it's difficult to execute? Because he is a reality TV star? Because movies are more absolute dollars than series?

Again, with Trump, it all seems to be equally possible. There is another option.

"This guy is an idiot," said Michael Pachter, managing director of Wedbush Securities Equity Research. thr By email.

Trump “doesn’t know what he means, so (he) is hard to explain.” When we ask for his interpretation of Trump’s latest decree, Parker said.

Analysts can directly say that journalists cannot.

“In fact, (Trump) can (on a whim) impose it on all intellectual property rights, including games, books, comics, etc,” Pachter continued. “He didn’t know how bad he would do for the American film industry.”

Film studios have some ideas and their executives seem ready to take Trump off this podium. Hollywood vintage banners obviously understand their exposure here, but what about Netflix? Just like the proposed tariff itself, the answer is complicated.

Netflix focuses primarily on global expansion and produces local language programs from all corners of the planet. Wedbush estimates that 75% of Netflix's Netflix's production outside the U.S. is the content most of Netflix's libraries are not produced by Netflix, but are obtained, meaning streaming has little control over where it is made.

Netflix spokesperson did not respond thrRequest for comment on Trump's tariff threat.

Netflix Longago maximizes its membership in the United States and Canada. So to add subscribers, Netflix needs to write programming for 188 other countries, and they might produce content there too - it's a much cheaper hell.

Ron Leshem, creator of the popular Israel series Bad boynow on Netflix, recently told thr "Five Seasons" he could have done Bad boy Here is an episode of a big HBO series. Leshem created the original Happy And the executive made an ongoing American version, so his receipt was literally.

Generally speaking, Netflix content is borderless in terms of regional availability – a 100% tariff change for the U.S. audience. We may not get the next one Squid Game (Produced in Korea), Baby reindeer (English/Scotland), Money robbery (Spain/Spain), Lube (France/France), puberty (England), Bridgeton (U.K), Wednesday (Romania) or Queen's gambit (Berlin) - The huge cultural damage next to the political decision. Or maybe we can only get it after it proved to be cross hits in 189 other Netflix countries. Start VPN.
