Why do the Chinese have such shit taste?

>>79828498
>country that makes SW, RE, Transformers, and capeshit

how many fucking times are you going to make this thread today, chucklefuck?

>>79828498
Seriously. Why do the Chinese love shit so much?
>>
>>79828486
I thought zombies were banned in china?
>>
>>79828486
why are ghosts evil and forbidden but zombies are A okay?
>>
>>79828517
And China eats all that shit up. What's your point?
>>
>>79828525
>but zombies are A okay?
Because then you need to ban movies about the average chinese person too.
>>
>>79828525
ghosts are okay in some contexts. it's paranormal/spirituality stuff they ban because they actually believe in that shit.

Why would fans not like the RE movies
The games themselves were never serious and only got cheesier and cheesier as time went by.
>>
>>79828498
To be fair, their government controls a lot of what they see. Dumb action flicks are always fair game because they don't have anything resembling a political message or a message that could cause people to question their government.

Also, China has contributed so little to film history that it shouldn't be a surprise that they eat up garbage.
>>
>>79829172
The "fans" also really like the canon, which the movies completely shit on
>>
>>79828525
Ghosts = ancestors, pretty much all Chinese folk religion (there's around 800 million following them and it's not even clear if it's actual religion) is based around ancestor worship.
>>
>>79828543
The point is that the majority of anyone have shit taste. China loves shitty, shallow blockbusters. America loves shitty, shallow blockbusters.
>>
>>79828517
You have somewhat of a point. China is definitely not responsible for keeping capeshit alive. But there are cases (such as this one) where China's terrible taste (along with the shitty taste of other foreign countries) has kept terrible franchises afloat.

There are good movies that do well in America. The thing is we actually have choices. A lot of countries only have access to shitty, shallow blockbusters so they don't really have a choice. You know how hard it is to see limited releases in the US? Now imagine how hard it is to see those types of movies outside of the US.

>>79828734

does it have similarly erotic descriptions of how he kills Ada and Leon?
>>
>>79834448
Ada and Leon are killed by some random monster that absorbs them I think. The whole washington battle from the novelization is on google books.

Gee faggot I guess you only like movies made 100 years ago.

It was always about the fucking money.
>>
>>79835361
>55% of the book available for free online

why do they do this
>>
>>79835467
1896?
>>
>>79835566
wrong.

passion of the christ was NEVER about the money, which is why it's the greatest film of the last 100 years.
>>
>>79828522
Because they can't understand the dialogue half the time so they watch it for the spectacle.
>>
>>79835596
Do you think people who would pay to see a Resident Evil movie released in 2017 read?
>>
>>79828498
because they can either see a shitty action movie or government propaganda
>>
>>79828498
They are off brand humans

>>79828734
That's some shitty writting
>>
>>79836295

hong kong isn't china

I thought the Chinese didn't watch these types of movies, or is that just with ghosts?
>>
>>79833746
Wesker is honestly a retarded character, in the games he's easily capable of slaughtering Chris and Sheva in seconds but he just keeps showing off until they kill him

Great Wall is technically a Chinese movie, just with a couple of Hollywood stars to make it more palatable to foreign audiences.

I'm glad, I just feel sorry for all those stuntwomen who are going to get their arms ripped off

>Finally we're done with these shitty movies
>China comes in and gives it 100 million in a weekend

what

the

fuck

These shitty movies will never end will they?

This is why I hate how Hollywood peddles to the PRC. So long as the ChiComs have shit taste to watch this crap, it encourages Hollywood to not even try anymore so long as it satisfies those worker ants.
