Hmm idk I mean I feel like other than the airport it’s just not a major city anymore. Like the last time I heard about it on the news it was about providing condoms to 5th graders 💀

I mean John Hughes use to based all these huge movies in the Chicago suburbs. So that helped a lot! I would not say that Chicago isn’t a major city. We are still in the top 4. But it’s just cheaper to make movies in other states now.

Yeah like I said it’s just cheaper in other states to make media, for example marvel makes their movies in Georgia now. but there’s still a really big art scene in Chicago it’s just New York and La are flashier. But we still got The Bear.
