Doraemon is King there, it would outsell almost anything except maybe Godzilla
Ian Ortiz
fucking racists
Jeremiah Peterson
>Japanese people prefer domestic Japanese entertainment over Hollywood WE WUZ KANGS capeshit
WOW! YOU DONT FUCKING SAY!

And Americans still can't understand why a movie about black Americans in Africa isn't popular in Asia.
Luis Nelson
To be fair it's doing well in China
Dominic Morales
It was released in China on Thursday, so unless it's already made $100 million it's not doing well.
Did you mean South Korea, where part of the movie was set?
Elijah Gutierrez
Well it did make $22M on its first day of release in China. Pretty fast start.

What went wrong?
Evan Cook
Godzilla is like Star Trek tier in Japan. It's name means a lot, but the fan base is surprisingly small. What fans are their are usually pretty into it though.
The reason Shin Godzilla did so well was that the timing was best after 2014, The main actor and actress are extremely popular and Anno's name still has a lot of pull.
Hunter Barnes
Burgers only like edgy shit
Gabriel Sanders
That's the obvious reason.
Now we wait for libtards to find some more retarded ones.
How's Shizuka in this one?
Dylan Jackson
When Doraemon is adventure oriented is just the best.

Makes sense. None of the Godzilla films have made the list for top-grossing films in Japan, but a lot of the franchise's movies have a cracked over a million in ticket sales, some of them pretty easily.

Black Panther is a OK movie nothing to write home about but at the same time worth a watch with friends
Godzilla is way more popular in the west than it is on Japan.

>Godzilla is way more popular in the west than it is on Japan.
No way. Worldwide ticket sales for Goji have always been poor apart from the two American movies.

>Japan studio actually did those for Disney broadcast themselves, not Disney
Caleb Morris
Doraemon is quite edgy for a kid's show though.
Gabriel Miller
I've never watched any Doraemon film even though shit's absurdly popular in my country. How are they? Do they compare to the Shin Chan films in quality?
Nolan Collins
On come on, what problem could you possibly have with them changing the money?
Austin Harris
>IT'S NOT EXACTLY THE SAME!
Samuel Rivera
That's why long running series will never be popular in USA, they take the extremely expensive way instead of just dubbing chapters without modifying the image.
