    Butterflies corrupting the youth! How insidious! The master plan is underway. Whenever these wee ones see a butterfly they will grab their book bag, a quarter and beg to go to the Meeting. Its madness I tell you, madness!

    That may be but it still doesn't account for the standard practice of the film industry to list that information as a location credit. The credits presented at the end, in the fashion it was, without designating that it was a location credit, generally indicates financial support.

    To credit "the City of White Plains" is specific - it credits the city, not the kingdom hall property.

    Yes, they filmed on the public highway.

    This would have needed to have been consented to.

    BTW Tom Hanks and Meryl Streep have been in White Plains filming just this month.

    A lot of films have location credits at the end - but most people don't stay in the movie house long enough to read all the credits.....

    Yeah. No big news there

    The credits are one of the most important features when watching productions. They reveal the source and the bias along with all sorts of other interesting information at times. Just watching a film without paying attention to its production process is a bit superficial, I think. It's only value is entertainment if the viewer doesn't absorb more than just the eye candy.

    Did you notice the credits at the end? - OrphanCrow

    They do not include the names of the writers and contributors to their books and magazines, but they place credits in their videos?

    What happened to not giving praise to humans so as to keep Jah as the focus of attention?

    Generally, credits are given for a specific reason. Receiving support in the way of grant money usually has a caveat that requires credit being given on the final production. Just getting city approval for filming location usually does not have that caveat attached to it. But receiving financial support almost always does (*edit to add - maybe the city just waived the usual fees required to offset the location shoots).

    I remember back in the 80's when the JDub's (in the country I lived in at the time) used to slag off Jimmy Swaggart for his 'tele-evangelism'. Here we are in 2017, and the JDubs are doing the same thing with JW TV, videos etc.
