According to wikipedia, as a whole $617M was spent in Georgia in 2013 on production; this compares disfavorably with Louisiana ($674M), British Columbia ($778M), and New York State (1880M). Wiki doesn't even bother to list California. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_industry_in_Georgia_%28U....)

That list doesn't include all the new studios being built:
Pinewood: http://m.pinewoodgroup.com/our-studios/usa/pinewood-atlanta-...
Third Rail: http://clatl.com/freshloaf/archives/2015/04/07/film-and-tv-s...
Tyler Perry's new facility: http://m.clatl.com/freshloaf/archives/2015/06/29/tyler-perry...
This is just three of about ten studio facilities being built in the area.
I believe three of the Marvel films have been filmed in Atlanta. These have been recent enough not to be in that list.
I know this is anecdotal, but if you were living in Atlanta you'd get a sense of how much growth is occurring in our film industry.
