>Media industry analysts have warned that Hollywood has become so awash with Chinese funding that China now essentially owns and controls most of the Hollywood entertainment industry.

>A Beijing-based purchase of US film studio Legendary Pictures by Dalian Wanda Group represents the largest-ever film industry takeover by a Chinese company, with $3.5 billion spent on allowing China to become the second biggest box officer player in Hollywood.

>sony

sony pictures is run by jews

>Based China will save us from pathetic American reboots
Whats the problem here?

chinese products are associated with poor quality, basically the "made in china" insult

japan has generally had a positive cultural stereotype: quality machinery, attention to detail

in terms of media, japanese at least has a strong anime culture which is generally well regarded but china has produced little of note except a handful of high budget movies and martial artists

Cause China is a emergent superpower.

Japan was basically neutered.

new movies from China targeted at American audience

imdb.com/title/tt2034800/

imdb.com/title/tt2238032/

The Chinese products I own, I'd put them up against any American made products of the same type. Try me.

Oh well, better than the Jews.

chinese/taiwan/hong kong cinema is so shit. It's the usual martial artist crap akin to capeshit where one guy does unimaginable moves against hundreds of enemies. Compared to japanese cinema they have a long way to go as an artform

Jackie chan movies were at least fun, that's it

>Japan was basically neutered.
by whom?

>Matt Damon
>Pedro Pascal
>Willem Dafoe

And then rest of them are literal unknowns from China.

ayy Lmao.

I didn't specfically say it was true, only that is the cultural association. There were some documentaries about it, basically that the "made in china" insult was spread back in the day as a battle to keep jobs in america

however I would also say there are plenty of stories about really shitty chinese products that keep this stereotype alive

Post WW2.

>he doesn't know that those reboots were made for Chinese

Because china is communist and is the richest country in the world

Guess its about time to find a chinese girlfriend

I honestly dont get the west and japan's obsession about moving manufacturing to china. You save a few bucks but in the end you create a superpower that ends up buying you out.

Good countries make stuff, not just intellectual property

because you're a micro cocked weeaboo

A business would never admit responsibility for creating a super power, they only care about their bottom line.

>Jackie Chan and Johnny Knoxville
Well I'll watch that for some ball kicking NO TRABBLE action fun.

>china stroooong

2 cent brigade go

Cheers, OP! That reminds me to check Liveleak. I fucking LOVE watching videos of Chinese people getting sucked into broken escalators and being ground up by gears, or falling down elevator shafts, or being decapitated by elevators, or having 150kg (330lb) shopping carts full of shit falling down escalators and SMASHING them against a wall, or falling into a fucking MOVING TRASH COMPACTOR AT STREET LEVEL WHEN THEY SLIP OVER

I FUCKING LOVE CHINA!!!! CHINA A-OKAYYYYYY!!!!

Because Japan always had around half of America's population, meaning they could make meaningful contributions without overwhelming anything, while there are five times more Chinese than Americans.

I've noticed a serious lack of common sense in this day and age. It'll be the death of us eventually.

That's what's so sad about it. I wish there was some implicit or explicit consensus among all businesses in a country to stop falling for the china meme

Hitler was right, national socialism is the only way

Watch "If You Are The One" and get back to us.

Because the Chinese government restricts internet access, keeping the people from illegally downloading shit.

Just face it, Hollywood as we knew it is gone forever. Replaced by television, podcasts & independently wealthy artists & benefactors.

Oh, I almost forgot my favourite video from Liveleak! The security footage of a 2-year-old Chinese girl having her legs run over by a TRUCK, and then SCREAMING for 3 hours in absolute agony! You know WHY she screamed for that long? Because.... haha this one's the kicker... because if you TAKE someone to a HOSPITAL in China, YOU have to foot the BILL!!!!

Oh man, that one really tickled my pickle! All those people just walking by as the girl SCREAMED AND SCREAMED AND SCREAMED, while her LEGS were a bloody MUSH!

FUCK YEAH CHINA! REPRESENT, YO!

The US has been through this before with Japan. Will they survive china?

Also what happened with the japan meme? In the 80s there were always references to how the japanese owned everything, but is that still true?

i never noticed it before but the context of this thread made me realise she looks like a white asian person

something about her face is very chinese

>japan has generally had a positive cultural stereotype: quality machinery, attention to detail
And I as a person that works with their machinery am here to tell you that they are nothing better tahn the chines and are still afloat because of the 80s economy boom cutting edge shit they did back then.
now they are so broke that working for 20h a day wont overturn the hell pit they are in,for the next 200 years.

Japan went into depression in the 90's because they fell for the "infinite growth" meme then couldn't keep it up when birth rates dropped below 2.0 per woman.

>Thinking China controls Hollywood, not Jews

goyim, I...

the japanese economy has been in a very steady decline from the late 80s and is still top 3 in the world, which really goes to show just how insanely strong the japan meme was

i suspect the china meme will be a lot, lot worse and as mentioned above by another poster, the fact that western corporations are only looking out for shareholders means there isn't going to be any recourse against it

So you could say she was CAUCasian?

Something similar happened in this user's post about why he regrets learning Mandarin.

>infinite growth
key factor for their downfall was change of their economy model because of international pressure and threats for embargo,and allowing the central bank to dictate where the money goes instead of the domestic national bank.
RIP infinite growth,the fucked themselves its nobodys falut

Completely wrong. As a former machinist & aspiring engineer, it's known worldwide the Japanese tolerances are among the smallest in the manufacturing. While Chinese standards & practices are much much looser.

I want to learn Mandarin now, so I can get friendly with random Chinese people and murder them.

You'd be doing god's work.

cant wait for warcraft 2 :^)

>japanese at least has a strong anime culture which is generally well regarded
lmao, piss off weeb

>but china has produced little of note except a handful of high budget movies and martial artists
shows you know nothing about chinese cinema.

>sony pictures is run by jews

The only time you'll ever hear Sup Forumslution say a subsidiary runs itself is when the subsidiary is owned by a Jew and the parent company isn't.

if you say so champ

That's terrifying.

And to think, I've suggested that Int. Business majors learn mandarin.

"MADE IN CHINA" and designed/developed/engineered are 2 different things. I import all of my products from China and honestly, it's definitely a trade off from the Australian produced stuff.

At the absolute top tier manufacturing firms, I'm sure things are a little better (and will get better), but even then, it can't really be prepared to Japanese/European and in some cases, American made.

By America.

Nuked, foreign bases on its soil now, the emperor forced to revoke his divinity and it's constitution forced to be pacifist.

This is the balls being cut from your nation.

sounds like heaven

>he doesn't know China has terrible taste

Fuck you nigga. Hong Kong cinema is nothing like China's

So you can't have films talking about Tibet and Taiwan in exchange for not having forced-fed diversity? Sounds like a good deal.

No undead, religion, or time travel as well.

China makes decent stuff, but the problem is that they need all the design work to be done by someone outside the country. They have absolutely zero creativity.

ROC not PRC.

Chinese aren't real people. Sure they look like people, but they lack that thing that makes a person person. They're closer to robots than actual, real people like you or I.

And Hong Kong, Britain, ghosts, time travel, religion, puns, reincarnation and seductive eating of bananas.

>china owns hollywood
>still no increase in kung-fu movies
>hasn't been a major kung-fu movie since crouching tiger hidden dragon

Hong Kong is a country on its own and has nothing to do with main land China.

>china has never made a martial arts movie

oh so that's why the godzilla movie and godzilla vs king kong movie are on permanent hiatus

So we are going to do this or what

Luke Alzheimers

Honk Kong is a part of China.
Get over it.

Like Vatican in Italy.

>china
uncivilized, except the british ran territory of hong kong, and multiplying out of control
>japan
by all accounts, ahead of us

Never feel bad treating chink like shit. They see you the same way

The people of hong kong beg to differ. Having been there myself, politically it might be one country, but they are two totally different peoples.

>Chinese people in general

youtube.com/watch?v=lRJOYOaz45c

>by all accounts, ahead of us
Hasn't Japan has been technologically irrelevant for quite a while and behind when compared to us. Not sure how they fare compared to other asian countries these days though. South Korea seems ahead.

*Hasn't Japan been

Chinese have shit taste. This means more shit movies like Monster Hunt

of course, it's pretty rich compared to mainland.
no wonder it's different and consider themselves "elite".
Anyway, by 2047 hong kong will be fully absorbed in China.

Because china have taken up the mantle of colonialists, and the west is too cucked to stick up for itself and it's own interests.

Japan might be behind us in terms of technology given they still use fucking fax machines and don't know what direct debit is, but they're miles in advance of us when it comes to social development. Almost zero immigration and no "ban X because it hurts my fee-fees".

It is a matter of cost than it is creativity. Industries that moved to China were the ones that you could train a monkey to do. Complex machining requires a national infrastructure that creates and supports highly skilled labor who won't work for peanuts. China becoming a place of complex labor would dramatically increase the cost of labor and the cost of living, thus causing China to lose its economic advantage of a cheap labor force to the next lowest bidder (India)

The rich Chinese are getting their money out of China as fast as they can. It is going to fail. But western companies are too greedy to say no.

But they blur their porn

Because America forced them to after the nukes.

It's easy to take away freedoms, and nearly impossible to re-instate them.

give it 10-15 years for the chinese takeover.

At least the chinks are not pants on the head liberals like the western media.
I wonder how long it will take Hollywood to corrupt them into autodestructive hedonists like the west.

No. It's a dumb meme. Educate yourself.

They are just into total censorship. It's so much better, right?

Nothing will change. They care about money, not about spreading their culture.

wat

Nothin wrong with this.

Western media practice auto censorship anyway.
You are a full if you think if you think the "liberal" west is better.
If anything they have abandoned communism and extreme leftism while we're dumb enough to embrace even more the most destructive ideology in history.

When it comes to censorship it's better in every way.

I dunno. After watching the RNC, I am wondering about Americans being robots. (Not that Shillary and her supporters aren't drones too.)

Though a friend of mine who worked in China said that she was amazed at how awful and conformist their taste in movies were, somehow worse than the lowest low brow Americans.

So that's why that Chinese exchange student never said hi back.

>Fan Bingbing

>not japanese movie industry, which is definitely not for plebs

Chinese and Japanese movie industries are irrelevant in the Western world.

And when it comes to arthouse China seems to be ahead of Japan.

To be fair, I'm not sure the Taiwanese are the most objective people around when it comes to the Chinese.

I'm more concerned that Renny Harlin directs the film. The guy has lost his touch since the 90s.

>LOOK AT ME I AM SO ABOVE IT ALL, YOU THINK I WOULD SUPPORT A CANDIDATE? HAH, I DON'T TAKE A SIDE SO NOW NOBODY CAN DISAGREE WITH ME! I AM TOO SMART FOR POLITICS!

I hate you faggots even more than I hate hillary supporters. At least they have the balls to take a stance, unlike your pseudo-intellectual retarded self.

>when it comes to arthouse China
this.
Here, Then is top notch.
>rape scene was too long and it got weird because I was watching it with my sister being in the room.

The Western Media practiced the most censorship when it was ruled by the Christian-led government in the mid-20th century.

But I guess it's OK when white people do it, right?

>Hong Kong is a country on its own
No. Its a special autonomous economic zone.

The only logical stance in a clown fight is laughing at both sides. Not placing bets on which clown you want to win, and certainly not using the clown fight to determine which clown you want to lead a clown army in a clown war.
