Who knows if others like the BFI will follow in their footsteps?

britain hasn't made a decent movie in decades

I'm betting they would.

well hollyweird is moving over to china

atm

Really?

yeah

Why the fuck would they do that?

bigger and more gullible audience

asian movie audiences are easier to please

But wouldn't movies be censored more often?

they just want copypasta action crap

yes

and also yes

but in a low key kind of way

*sighs*

What *isn't* offensive these days?

things like that zombie movie where a zombie virus starts in north korea, and not china (as in the source material)

then there's actors/ public figures like harison ford getting sidelined because he's a buddhist

and the CCP don't like biddhists

mostly because the CCP invaded tibet

Communist Chinese Party?

yup

@ʇooNʇooN you mean World War Z?

Or is it the other way around?

@H E C K yeah wwz

I read the book and watched the movie, and holy shit was the movie ever bad

Hm. I thought the World War Z film was a 5/10.

I haven't read the book yet.

china uncensored isn't exactly non-partisan, but most of the stuff they cover checks out

i gave up on movies over a decade ago

Wanna bet China is indeed working on a zombie virus?

And World War Z would have been too on the nose if it followed the source material?

It barely followed the source material at all, it shouldn't have even shared the title of the book

i only watch stuff that has better audience ratings than critical acclaim, or stuff that has cult appeal

Ahem. Death Wish.

Death Wish is a great film.

Tbh it's one of Eli Roth's better movies.

And guess what? It got a piss poor criticd rating and great audience ratings.

tbh
