L.A. doesn't need a massive skyline to compete with any other city. Only a fool would believe that a massive skyline makes a city. Just look how London ranks number one over New York.

I agree. For a city its size, L.A.'s skyline is nothing special but it doesn't really need a good skyline to be considered an important city. It's layout is pretty much the anti-thesis of most large American cities.

I'm not too sure about the movie industry growing over there. I hear that quite a few studios are moving elsewhere

Well, from what I've seen on this thread there's a few LA people who have a chip on their shoulder towards NY. And NYers... just feel extremely superior. Which they are in size and many other things, but it doesn't necessarily make them higher "quality".

This thread is awful. From the OP to the post above mine. Awful.

This thread has gone downhill. Time to put it out of its (and our) misery.
