And what happens if Disney decides to buy Pinewood? How will that affect independent filmmaking then?

Will the indies have to start investing in their own studio space to avoid paying potential high rates imposed by the likes of Disney et. al as a consequence of any such buyouts?

And Michael G Wilson is a fine one to talk - he seems to have only made James Bond films - where's the diversity? And Bond has been bankrolled by the Hollywood studio system each and every time.

We got the Harry Potter contracts here in the UK (as with Bond) as we offer such attractive tax incentives to Hollywood - tax incentives that, unless the government curtails to Hollywood, would see studio money go elsewhere. Us Brits ARE talented, but the US VFX industry is suffering because their own industry isn't providing sufficient support to the home team.

Sigh.
