New Lucasfilm Campus Breaks Ground at Presidio

Posted by Hemos on from the making-the-movies dept.

GuyMannDude writes "Lucasfilm has broken ground on the new $300 million special effects campus that he hopes will help San Francisco rival Hollywood as a producer of movie magic. Some see the project as a way for the Presidio (a national park) to become economically self-sufficient while critics claim that level of commercialization is unnecessary."

    In the sunny suburb of Miramar, no less. I just wish Peter Jackson would do something similar here in Wellington, I'd sign up in a second (and then, no doubt, be turned away in a similar time frame).
