How Cheap Is It 2 Shoot Movies OverSeas?

[Makavalli]

After the award holiday season movie rush movie quality dip to crackhead levels in january thru march with maybe 1 or 2 watchable movies.

I noticed they are shot almost entirely outside the u.s if its an action film. Is this the studios version of TJ maxxx profit time

Depends where. The dollar isn't dead everywhere.

A lot of action films were shot here in Montreal for cheap. White House Down, X-Men Days of Future Past, Riddikk (lol@ the auto-correct), Red 2, 300, Life of Pi, Benjamin Button, Blade 2 and 3. Its very inexpensive to rent a studio up here, the weather and scenery is quite diverse, and the rest can be green-screened

I know lots of action movies get shot in Eastern Europe because it's dirt cheap.

The last die hard was just on cable and it was 95% in russia. It was garbage and was one of the only die hard movies to come out in january. Same as Jack Ryan, wasnt too bad but definitely felt like a red box experience in the theater
