Deadline ^ | May 6, 2020 | David Robb

[EdnaMode]

Hollywood is going to put itself out of business over a virus that mostly kills elderly people with preexisting conditions. Feel sorry for the good people that work there. Maybe it's time for a new film industry.

[ksm1]

Can we keep them shut down even after we have a vaccine? Please?

[Darksheare]

They didn’t react like this to HIV..

[johniegrad]

If they off themselves, it will no effect on millions of lives.

[cyclotic]

But without Hollywood actors, we wouldn’t know that we’re all in this together and how much they care about us.

[eyeamok]

I love a good suicide, and it couldn’t happen to a more deserved bunch of America Hating Commies.

[TexasM1A]

That’s a shame.
Of course they will just relocate production to other areas after a bit.

[Steely Tom]

Oh dear. What shall I do. I’m so upset.

...”Won’t Return To “Normal” Until Vaccine, Testing & Tracing Are In Place”

Geez. That’ll be 18-24 months. It’s Hollywood so...Hopefully!

[exnavy]

Thank God, most likely there will never be a vacine.

[Skywise]

Soooo...

Never.

There’s not going to be a vaccine for this. By the time A vaccine will be made the virus will have already mutated. It already has.

[Beowulf9]

Since when has Hollywood ever been normal?

[Lurkinanloomin]

Good, they only make crap anyway.

[VeniVidiVici]

woohoo!

[Sarah Barracuda]

OH NOES without Hollyweird how will we all survive/sarc

[arkfreepdom]

Reminds me of a very non pc scene out of Blazing Saddles.

[raccoonradio]

I didn’t watch a single second of the Oscar awards from last Feb. I saw some movies last year and this, and among the films from last year, I did see Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and The Irishman which were both nominated in some way.

But I haven’t missed Hollywood.
I looked up and found Parasite won Best Picture.

“In PARASITE, greed, class discrimination and a mysterious interloper threaten the newly formed symbiotic relationship between the wealthy Park family and the destitute Kim clan.” —oscar. go. com

Shrug.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

“They didn’t react like this to HIV.”

My very first thought, too.

[Herodes]

This is great news. Here’s hoping that we get the Corona Vaccine at the same time we get the HIV vaccine.

[BitWielder1]

Prime example of a non-essential industry.
