Two widely followed Chinese public figures — one an editor for a state media outlet, the other the son of a former party chief — released identical outlines on Tuesday of countermeasures Chinese authorities are said to be considering in response to Trump’s tariffs.
Dude, just pirate them and put them in the theaters. Or shit, make them the friday night movie on TV broadcast.
That would be hilarious.
They can have my views too. I ain’t watching shit from America if I can help it.
Pirate them. Steal your cake and eat it too.
I like this idea even better. China pirates them, plays them in theatres, takes the money generated from them anyways, lol
Marvel slop in shambles.
Oh god no what will they do without modern Hollywood movies these days
I’m worried I soon won’t see American media in Canada anymore
Good. Let their own cinema thrive.

That would actually be a net positive as films wouldn’t be censored to appease daddy China.
Also films would have lower budgets.

Thank goodness they’re taking the politics out of movies!
Takes a billion dollars to portray the US military as really cool and badass

False dichotomy. Not being censored by China doesn’t mean being funded/influenced by the US.

Imagine if we had gotten a storm trooper turned Jedi instead of yet another desert orphan for the star wars sequels, like all the promotional materials before the first movie seemed to hint at.

Kyle Katarn was a better story than anything Disney can do

Also as hollywood gets dunked upon, other film industries have a chance of growth.
