Superman Returns filmed in Australia.
I don't know if I like that there was no filming in Kansas.

Why didn't the state do something to get it filmed around here ?

Can you imagine getting actors interested in doing a movie that was filmed in Kansas?

It's much less expensive, because of the unions, to film in Australia than the United States. For years, Vancouver has doubled as an American city in TV and movies because it's cheaper there to pay film licenses and crews than in the US.

Fox has a huge backlot outside of Sydney where Superman Returns was filmed (as were all three recent Star Wars episodes). The Governator recently created a film panel that urges the studios to film more frequently in California and has decided to give tax credits for productions that stay in state.

As far as Kansas is concerned, I'm sure that Singer & company found the appropriate background in Australia.

I can't imagine anyone being interested in anything being done in Kansas.

For whatever reason, Shreveport, LA has been getting a lot of film industry business lately.

Not really sure where that push came from...

I would assume from tax credits, since that state is probably low on commerce. But that's only a guess.

Chicago squeezed itself out of the film industry for several years by assraping all the production companies (which, of course, is a Chicago speciality). When the movie Chicago was filmed in Toronto, that seemed to serve as a wake-up call. Apparently Comrade Daley & Company have scaled back on the abuse somewhat.

Last one I know of was Ride with the Devil. Not a great movie, but it was pretty good.

There was also, "The FAXES Almost Die: Lost As Hell In Mark Twain National Forest", Mr. frazod.

Of course, that was just a home movie.

Me too, Mr. Deberg_1990.

What's funny is that the director found that St. Louis would serve well as a sort of post-apocalyptic New York.
