"A lot of these actors are pretending to be something they are not."
No shit. That's how it works.
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
A lot of these actors are pretending to be something they are not. Oh, that goes for politicians too. Guess I should have lied more. If I had I might be President. At least a Senator. Why do these idiots expect citizens to obey the law when they don't?

That is not a natural hair color.

The amount of wasted dollars in the aerospace industry is incredible. Boeing does not need these rebates. They could easily afford to continue their productions without these government subsidies and if they cannot, the free market has judged them. Just another liberal example of do as I say, not as I do.

@nofaith - The purpose of the tax breaks is to bring those jobs to SC. It is free market working by providing the tax breaks! SC is giving the film/TV industry a reason to bring its business here & not another state.
I would rather give a business a tax break to bring more jobs to SC rather than having higher unemployment.
Well done SC Legislature!
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
In my opinion, you shouldn't support the film industry at all, as a lot of standing around goes into making film.
Stop watching movies. Adhere to your principles.
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
Not looking for a fight but go and watch the amount of money wasted on the Army Wives set. I watched them spend a full day with at least 50 people to close off a section of East Montague and film a portion of a 30 second promo. There were five people there who were in charge of bringing each of the actresses their shoes when the cameras stopped rolling. Yeah, all of those people got to work but it is and incredible amount of money that gets wasted. If they were not throwing it away I wouldn't feel so bad but they are not the folks that need tax breaks.
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
I think the rebates should be larger.
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
I'm not looking to start a fight with anyone here.

Liberal? South Carolina state government?
Re: “CBS getting ‘Reckless’ this fall”
I agree with Cid that Cam Gigandet is super-hot. I also want to clutch him as we attempt the first non-stop trans-Atlantic Yamaha Waverunner™ ride.
It pleases me to see that we can be so open about our sexuality on here.

Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
I hope that works out for you, since you're paying the taxes the millionaires aren't.

Like most shows set in the South, will they constantly have a sheen of perspiration on their brows as the ceiling fans fail to overcome the sultry weather?
Re: “Film Rebate Bill signed into law”
As a model and actress I am absolutely thrilled with this Bill. I cannot wait for more opportunities to showcase my talent.
Re: “Baz Luhrmann doesn't show enough respect for Jay Gatsby”
Scott Fitzgerald wrote the novel with Real 3-D™ in mind.
I know a lot of people don't want to hear it, but we're dealing in facts.

Beautiful lady and beautiful line! Bought four pieces!!!!!
Re: “Baz Luhrmann doesn't show enough respect for Jay Gatsby”
This movie sounds awful. Just like his rendition of Romeo and Juliet.
Re: “Baz Luhrmann doesn't show enough respect for Jay Gatsby”
An interesting critique, and I am leery of the misinterpretation that could ensue via the movie; however, let's not forget that Gatsby DOES reach for the green light, symbolically AND literally, at the end of chapter 1...."he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward — and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away..." It would have been a mistake to have kept that iconic moment out of the movie.
