I don't know or care.

Christ no. Its going to be fucking awful as it'll be compared to Empire Strikes Back.

even normies wont see it, or wont like it at least

i think op is implying something about race and it's an interesting thought: on one hand hollywood want to do simple variations of their franchise to keep them "fresh" and they do this by giving more space to female and minority characters and at the same time they want that chinese money so what is it gonna be, since those developing countries are culturally backwards in many regards, like, openly and frankly racist and they just don't care so they probably won't care much watching black dudes on 50 foot screens in 3d.

Would the Chinese get mad at a Chinese+black couple.

Considering that the majority of Chinese nationals believe blacks to be a subspecies of human, probably yes.

I can't wait to see how China getting blacked goes over

China worships Kobe Bryant though

Disney didn't make the same mistake as for TFA when the black dude shares the cover same size as the white girl, they had to reduce him drastically in the chinese poster. That's how they've been exposed for accomodating the racist chinese audience. This time John has been removed from the official poster. And even the other promo posters has only the body and the lower face merely visible. i'm convinced this is a trick only for the chinese audience.

It depends how much disney shill for it online on social media and in critics' circles. TFA is one of the most pathetic rip offs ever made. Will reviewers dare to criticise TLJ if it's the same? A big problem is that this generation of critics have been raised on these movies. The ones that grew up watching the great character-driven films of the 70s are fading away. The new wave seem perfectly happy for today's blockbusters to just be poor impersonations of the tentpole films they liked as kids, without caring or knowing that back in the 80s guys like Spielberg, Lucas, Scott, Zemeckis actually had creative control. So artistically-bankrupt shit like capeshit and TFA are celebrated because they're made in the same style as far better films from the past. Just pander to nostalgia and these guys will go nuts, despite TFA and the like being insipid formula movies.

Chinese people aren't conditioned to believe that black men fuck every woman they stand next to. The black character will be like a chewbaca to them, a lovable subhuman.

>culturally backwards

Time to castrate some little boy so you can pretend that it is a girl for Facebook likes, or time to make excuses for Pakistani rape gangs.

>a lovable subhuman.

they have literally writen in their travel guides to avoids blacks when travelling to France.

Pacific Rim 2 should be interesting. It got made because of China and Boyega is the main character.

Nope. Chinks hate niggers too.

She's an American born Vietnamese you fucking retards.

It doesn't appeal to the Chinese market just because has squinted eyes.

I guess that's why there is actually a true ethnic chinese female in that movie, she's a pilot. Empowered chinese female. Ummmm, dat sweet Yuan, I can smell it.

I bet the posters will only feature the robots

Who? Both the Asians are Vietnamese.

except there is a forced nigger/asian romance. it would be like chewbacca falling in love with leia.

>a forced nigger/asian romance

They're not going to see it like that. The actress isn't Chinese and she's not famous in their country either. They'll see two different Americans doing it, end of story.

Indeed but she plays in chinese movies : Sword of destiny

probably good advice

She plays in one American-Chinese movie, the rest are Vietnamese.

Note, 'American-Chinese'. She's far from being a celebrity or anyone of note outside of Vietnam.

>She's far from being a celebrity or anyone of note outside of Vietnam.
Then why did they cast her for a Star Wars movie? Why not a bollywood, african or south american actress? Why not a russian, french or whatever?

For the same reasons you would cast any of those. She's probably a good actor for the minor role she's being given and it helps with Disney's thing about diversity.

>she's probably a good actor
That answer is incorrect

Oh okay, but the correct answer is that they hired a no-name Vietnamese actress to play a bit part in Star Wars to - and get this - appeal to the CHINESE audience?

It's more likely, yes.

Vietnamese here. People just see black as dark skinned and ugly group of people. The concept of racism is not in their mind despite this.
Liberals in the West are cancers.

It doesn't make sense, you said she's basically nobody, yet Disney went after her for a Star Wars movie. Do you realize how many people would like to play in Star Wars even for a minor role? She's diversity hire to cater to asian demographic. Even though she is not chinese, she can be recognized by this audience. They don't pick a french or indian because it's useless. The french and even the japanese watch SW, they don't need to be 'represented'. The indian is a closed market, they watch bollywood so it's useless to cater to them.

they got used to that series get regurgitated over and over again (thanks to capeshit movies)

she looks so much out of place

Her name is a joke Rose, seriously.

Chewy was mentally retarded

...

Will this Movie cure racisim in China?????

No, they ate incapable of guilt and therefor Jewish tricks won't work on them.

Holy shit, youre right. I've never met a chinise person who has ever shown any guilt.

A talking ape in a film can be a lovable sidekick, but you wouldn't want to just go and live around chimps.

Well if the chinese was male and the female black then they won't have any problem

>even normies wont see it, or wont like it at least

Oh sweetie you're so naive

Nah, he's right. The hype around TFA was that it was the first Star Wars movie in ages, and since Star Wars is a cultural corner-piece now (and has been for years), going to one would be like going to the unveilment of the 9th World Wonder or something.

People aren't actually invested in the plotline. It'll make profit but will be like Captain America Civil War, aka forgotten in a week

I don't think the Chinamen will appreciate being Blacked

No. They still got a negro in it

No it didn't. PR did just as well in China as it did in the USA as far as box office gross is concerned and Hollywood only gets 25% of china gross NOW, it was even less before. This "China saves movies" meme needs to die.

Rouge One was pretty hyped and popular with normies.

>Rouge One was pretty hyped and popular with normies.

The reason why rogue one was hyped was because it dealt with the original trilogy. It had the original death star in it being completed. It had fucking Darth Vader in it as well as some of the old characters.

If you ask anyone what the best part of rogue one was, 9 out of 10 times they'll say the ending because of Dart Vader. What Disney fails to understand is that the audience wants to see fan service. They want to see jedi master luke, they want to see the original gang reunited, they want to see Vader killing jedi and rebels. Kathleen Kennedy is too focused on what SHE wants to see in star wars (Gurl power!) She is completely ignoring what the audience wants to see. And they try to remedy this in the cheapest way. (Member mos eisley and the death star?)

I'd much rather Disney do more star wars stories movies than the fail abortion that is the new trilogy

the chinks will be pleased since they umped up the diversity volume

>avoid blacks
>In France
they're everywhere, and they all try to sell you dumb shit
doesn't help that metro goes through a ghetto from the airport to Paris

Paris is not all of France.

>one guy likes basketball a lot therefore all chinese worship africans
You sound like a total fucking retard. The Chinese do not like blacks. They tell their citizens to avoid them when traveling abroad, the constantly write long articles about how much they hate foreigners (slavs and blacks in particular) and they go out of their way to actively protest blacks entering their country despite them (obviously) only being there for a little while if they were to ever be able to even go there in the first place. Don't delude yourself into thinking they like blacks because they don't. Anyone who thinks they do is an ignorant fool.

>While Star Wars: The Force Awakens ruled the domestic box office for a month, and then had a strong showing in most other countries over the same period, it looks like the honeymoon may already be over in China. This is a big loss, as China is the world’s second-largest movie market. While the film had a strong showing on its initial release, bringing in more than $50 million, the second weekend was not nearly as exciting, resulting in a drop of 72%.

>Box office estimates for The Force Awakens now have the movie finishing its Chinese run with no more than $125 million. This would put the movie ahead of Terminator: Genisys but behind Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation. While a total over $100 million would be generally viewed as a success for any western movie, the other movies are not Star Wars. While the The Force Awakens was not necessarily expecting to have the earth shattering effect that it’s had in the rest of the western world, it was certainly expected to do better than this. Star Wars: The Force Awakens finished second in China to a local animated feature called Boonie Bears 3 that’s based on a CCTV cartoon series. That was not planned for. The reason for the serious drop is not entirely clear; according to The Hollywood Reporter, the movie’s word of mouth in China isn’t great, though exactly what it is they don’t like is not clear.

What did China mean by this?

Arr rook same

No they don't

I sincerely wish I could tell you it is only Paris that has been overrun, but it's not true. In the UK it actually is that way, the big demographic change is all concentrated in London. In France it's everywhere and it's systemic.

This is a map of the percentage of black babies born by region. It's calculated from babies that were given the sickle cell test which is only administered to black newborns. It was the only way to get the data since even asking race on the census in France is illegal since "race does not exist".

This map doesn't even factor in the arab birth rates, mostly only Moroccans. Let that sink in. In a very real way it's already over for France as a white nation demographically. That ship has sailed. Within the lifetimes of people on this board France will be an Islamic nation.

>caring about chinks

YOU ARE CANCER

Maybe because that's a bad movie?

I don't know mate. It seems quite farfetched, but one should take all theories into account.

and people say China taking over the US is a bad thing

Go back to Sup Forums

That is so delusional.

Learn to read statistics retard. It's the percentage of risky children that actually have the illness. It's not the percentage of all children. That only means in certain region they target the risky children better.

Maybe the chinese don't like Mary Sues or black buffons, or both? Or maybe they recognized the film for what it is? A big pile of dogshit? The nostalgia effect had no impact since they don't know Star Wars.

No, it's the percentage of new births that the test was administered to, per region. And the test is only administered to black babies and "at risk groups" ie people of African origin, from North and sub-Saharan Africa as well as ethnic Africans from the Americas.


>Newborn babies in France are defined as “being at-risk for SCD when at least one parent originates from a risk region” where the responsible gene is prevalent (Bardakdjian-Michau et al., 2009, p. 31). This national screening policy based on the ethnic origin of the parents permits us to see the full extent of the rapidly expanding demographics of the non-White French population:

I would be ok with not seeing Vader any longer, or seeing Luke, Han and Leia die, but they just can't do it right. Han's death was disrespectful to the character itself.
Fuck, even the videogames seemed to understand the concept of Star Wars better than the new movies and some of the old

>dont speak same languange as X
>hurr all X are retarded
fuck off phoneposter

He acted in a very basic way in the movie.
>Han why are we doing this
>It never works, Han.
>Han I got hit.
>Han I'm cold
Goddamnit was he ever so whiny?

>She's diversity hire to cater to asian demographic

There's is NO 'Asian demographic'. That's not how these people think and it's not culturally how they view themselves. Asian is a banner term that refers to so many different nationalities, languages, and ethnic groups, that there's no fucking way a single person will represent them all.

This is why it's so hard to appeal to "them", because they're extremely subdivided.

literally everyone on earth except brainwashed whites hate niggers, even other niggers hate niggers

>there's no fucking way a single person will represent them all.
There's no need to represent all asians on the planet, only those who remotely look like her, and there are a shitload.

>Maybe because that's a bad movie?

An interesting theory, except for the fact that Transformers: Age of Extinction made $2 billion dollars there.

Sorry bud but that's bullshit

She is vietnamese, not chinese, the Chinese hate the Viets

Also she's a fatty

It's not going to work. Young white kids with too much on their mind are the only ones who will even remotely give a shit. People born in Asia won't give a fuck.

>culturally backwards
The only race taking shit from others are the Whites.
Chinese are racist the dont care, so are indians, and blacks. Humans are discriminatory, its self defense to protect their kin.

Chinese people born in the 80s grew up with Transformers. Especially that they didn't have many choices back then in the late 80s/early 90s.

Chinese people are not only racist as fuck but they also didn't get hit by Star Wars nostalgia since nobody has watched it until the 90s on some bootlegged VCD. Chinese people are more familiar with the TV than with movie theatres until now. Hence why the original Transformers cartoon were already successful back then.

Asians are more ethnocentric. They're definitely racist, for sure, but it's more about their ethnic group than their race. I mean, Pan Asianism died years ago.

Which is hilarious, because the Chinese are subhumans too.

>Vietnamese here
Your people are also ugly.

and the Chinese hate fatties.
