>Vin making more money with which to fund another Riddick
Thanks China.

It's either watch this or propaganda videos after working in slave conditions for 18 hours a day

Isn't China singlehandedly responsible for Warcraft not being a massive flop?

>>79508465

I'd rather see more Riddick than this

>>79508372

Can they not into torrents or DDL?

>>79508571
bro how do you think things like the riddick movies or the last witch hunter get made? Vin finances them himself from stuff like xxx and the FF movies

>>79508620
leave it to the chinese to ruin the movie industry with their shit taste

>china singlehandly saving the dumb action movies genre
finally did something right

It was produced by a chinese company so technically it's a chink movie. This allows it to get an unencumbered wide release in china.

And yes the movie was god awful bad, I saw it in theaters and felt cheated.

>>79508431
Because the Chinese Cultural Revolution literally killed anyone, anything, and everything with intelligence or culture.

The ships crew died. Now the rats rule.

>more riddick incoming
yes

Vin can make all the shitty Fast & Furious & xXx movies he wants and make bank if it all goes towards funding more Riddick. I am all about more Riddick.

>>79510120

China doesn't force anyone to do shit in hollywood. They've been making shitty blockbusters for years long before the rise of the popularity of the "chinese market".

The numbers don't even compare to some of the opening weekend numbers in the US.
>Marvel's The Avengers $207,438,708
>Avengers: Age of Ultron $191,271,109
>Jurassic World $208,806,270

Out of a population of more than 1 billion people you'd think it'd be MUCH higher than a $61.9 million opening.

>They've been making shitty blockbusters for years long before the rise of the popularity of the "chinese market".

Who said otherwise? The issue is that China makes it worse and that the industry is more mega-blockbuster-centric than its ever been. That's pretty undeniable. If you have any doubt that China is an influence on American movies just look at xXx's cast. They bet on the Chinese market and it paid off.

>The numbers don't even compare to some of the opening weekend numbers in the US.

Those are much larger movies across the board, dumbass. Age of Ultron had an 155m opening weekend in China.

>Out of a population of more than 1 billion people you'd think it'd be MUCH higher than a $61.9 million opening.

Actually no, the huge size of the US market has traditionally been the worldwide outlier and the fact that one country is on its way to catching up and surpassing as a consumer of American movies it is a big fucking deal. By comparison, India is still basically irrelevant.

I think you got sidetracked a little there.

OP (like many before him) was complaining that China is specifically responsible for a lot of the trash that gets made today by hollywood, which is not entirely the case. OP took that article as proof of this assumption even though the number of people in China who watch these blockbusters don't even compare to the number of people in the domestic market. They claim that China is "full of plebs", when only a small percentage of the actual population of China watches western movies. The point is, China isn't really responsible for the actions that studios take or what movies get green-lit to the degree OP, and you, are suggesting.

I honestly don't think a 61.9 million opening weekend is evidence of a "solid bet" for the studios and their investors, enough for them to think it's any kind of safe bet. But again, that's not what I was discussing. My point has to do with the misconception that China is this nation of plebs starving for shitty western blockbusters, more so than the US itself, when Ghostbusters (2016), which was not even shown in China, made more money domestically ($128,350,574) than it did world wide. Besides, the most popular films in China are all Chinese films!

>155m opening weekend in China.
Compared to the $191,271,109 weekend in the US. That's my point. There are FAR less people in the US. People in China who watch this shit are not the majority. So to insinuate that the reason hollywood movies are so shit specifically because of the chinese market is completely ridiculous.

all high-budget films are written to appease the chinese censors, and have been for years

studios rarely bother with alternate cuts for different markets

>>79508372
why do you care?

They've been made a soulless Godless race thanks to communism/Marxism and the subsequent mind fuck that had on them. Both consumer capitalism and communism strip people of their humanity mang.

>>79515189
Yeah, it's hilarious. Check out Vin Diesel's game "Wheelman" for more hilarity.

>>79508372
It was almost guaranteed to make a lot of money internationally, because of the international cast.

The Chronicles of Riddick games are genuinely great.

>>79508372
>we are getting another Riddick movie
whats the problem OP?

It looks like a friend I have working over there is leaving soon. She is sick of the horrible internet and really dumb people. You hear people whine about Americans being sheep and watching dumbed down media. It seems China is even worse.

>>79508372
Say what you want about the rest of the movie but Donnie Yen kicking ass was awesome.

>>79515541
>implying the Chinese don't literally take black people out of their movies

I'd usually be upset but Vin Diesel will use the money to make passion projects like Riddick that won't do well at all, get no outside funding, but he enjoys
