If you look closely you’ll see some Canberra locations in the newest Matrix film but enjoy seeing our home in this Hollywood film because if Trump has anything to do with it we won’t be seeing anything local, or even Australian, in many block buster films moving forward

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Cada today. Welcome if you join us for the first time,
great TV on board. We've been out smarter by where
Donald Trump. I didn't say it double with the tariffs.
I went, you know what five percent of Australian exports
go over there. Sure it's it's not good as far
as beef and aluminium and some wine is concerned. But
if that's the most you got make, get on your bike.
(00:21):
And he went, let me think about this. And in fact,
I don't know if he thought about it, or it's
a fluke does However, he is just stung a significant
Australian industry, a sector one hundred percent and we didn't
see it coming. Has never occurred to us.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Yeah, so on our movie industry, so all our movie
styles and everything will be struggling from now because it'll
make it. I don't know exactly the figures on how
much more expensive it'll be double double, but like what's
like the cost, Like, yeah, I don't know what the
component of the cost is to release it in the US.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
You know, he doesn't know, He's given none of this
any thought whatsoever. And I know what you're thinking straight away,
You've gone the Australian film industry. The castle didn't look
that expensive, but it's what it generates. And in fact,
as far as international Hollywood productions are concerned, I think
Hollywood Hollywood know. There's a reason that you see the
(01:20):
streets of the Act of Canberra in the matrix. There's
a reason that the Gold Coast is choc a block
with film crews from around Australia but being directed and
produced by American production houses.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
A bunch of the Marvel movies were made on the
Gold Coast. A couple of my friends were extras like
four and right, Aquaman, and.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
So the Australian cinema industry one of the largest in
the world in terms of revenue, generating roughly one zero
point three eight billion dollars in box off revenue box
office revenue that's Australian. And then as far as the
wider filmed entertainment that I'm talking about, you know from
America around just shy four billion dollars.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, So when he's put the tariff on it, has
he been specific Like if it's filmed in Australia but
made in the US, and you put a label on
it saying made in the US, does that incur a tariff.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
I think chucking a sticker on it isn't going to
be enough.
Speaker 3 (02:25):
So well, I don't reckon he's thought about it.
Speaker 1 (02:27):
He hasn't thought about anything.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
No sticker on it. I don't reckon he'll notice.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
No, he's got half an idea and he's chucked it
out there because it's not specifically targeted at Australia. It's
just really targeted at you know, Warner Brothers or Universal
or any of the production houses over there. You want
to go and get, you know, kickbacks from Queensland, or
from India or from wherever local governments around the world
are giving you incentives to produce a film there. We're
(02:50):
going to charge you double as far as we're we're
gonna we find you for all intents and purposes. So
produce your stuff in America and don't go anywhere.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
Hold on, there's so many movies that use the beautiful
scenery and locations of different countries, Like you look at
Lord of the Rings in the beautiful mountains of New Zealand,
Like you don't get those different landscapes in America. So
you'd have to see gi everything green screen.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
No banging on the green screen.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Come on, come on, Donald, and.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
I'm pretty sure that'll be Elbow's approach when he speaks
with it.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
Come on, how about if Albo gets Joe Exotic out,
then we can have films back in Australia.
Speaker 1 (03:35):
Well, that's between Albow and Joe Exotic. And if you'd
like to hear what Elbow said about Joe Exotic.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Right when he met a response.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yeah, so Joe Exotic, you know, the tiger ying campaign
to get Elbow re elected and that works. So now
Joe Exotics going, I did.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
My part, you do yours. You can get me out.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Album was asked about it and whether Joe Exotic had
been paid to support him in the election. He's in jail,
isn't that the question?
Speaker 1 (04:06):
I wasn't even aware of all of that, but you know,
I'll let that go through.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
I think the point of that question was to ask
the question rather than to get a serious answer.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
I hope convenient denial if you ask me, Joe Exotic
got you back in mate? I know why I voted
for Albert
