Just The News: Hollywood’s cozy, if morally fraught, ties to China will be tested once the current pandemic fades.
Film studios rely on Chinese theaters to fatten bottom lines or, in select cases, turn flops into modest hits. The 2018 reboot “Tomb Raider” netted a disappointing $58 million in U.S. theaters, for example, but generated $78 million in China alone.
It’s why American movies routinely endure nips and tucks to appease Chinese censors. All the while politically savvy stars stay silent on the country’s human rights abuses. read more
Weeeell I would go watch a movie or two, but you guys keep calling me a nazi and stuff, sooooo. Nope.
Enjoy your poorly dubbed kung fu movies and STATE approved soap operas, because that’s all you’ll get in the near future. lol
This country could do very well without Hollyweird.
Especially the way it is nowadays.
Hollywood sold their soul out long ago. I’ll take the golden age instead of the garbage they put out now. They had class and served their country, those days are over.
Is this Good or Bad for Brie Larson’s career???
Socialist or Lesbian
I don’t think the Chinese allow both at the same time.
The last good movie I saw in a theater was THE REVENANT where Leonardo Dicraprio gets mauled by a bear.

I saw that Star Wars movie with Adam Driver as the bad guy. Was sorta’ bored by it all until I found out Driver was a Marine.
Then it all made sense.
“YES! YOU AUTISTIC BASTARD, FUCK UP THE GALAXY!!!!”
Love those movies now.
My sisters and I just watched “An Afair to Remember” with Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. I teared up at the usual spot in the end.
Seriously, they don’t make them like this. My favorite part was when they visit his grandma. Sniff
Its all bad math.
Disney + ABC = Disney Beijing
NBC/Universal + MSNBC + CNBC = Beijing Universal Theme Park(
(opening 2021)
What would they do for a buck, ooops, i mean a Yaun!
China and Hollyweird – evil twins joined at the hip.
It would be awesome if the covid19 zeros in on those two locations and leaves the rest of us alone.
Sell Hollywood to China. Tell China everything has to be outta here in 90 days. And no whining about buyer’s remorse when Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell eat half of China’s food.
