China Box Office Thread | Oppenheimer-August 30
Lion Roar replied to A Marvel Fanboy's topic in China At The Box Office
If you've followed the last couple of weeks of CCP politics you wouldn't be surprised. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if Xi bans foreign films altogether soon. He's further tightening control over everything, including gaming and entertainment and even curse words in online comments. -
I feel the same way. The environment is pretty to look at but all the blue people look the same and has a slight uncanny valley thing going on. The whale looks awesome though.

A solid 7-7.5 for me. Some of the visuals were just astounding. Really loved the dwarves. Both Durin and Disa were amazing, and the (strained) friendship between Durin and Elrond is great. And surprisingly I actually liked the Harfoots. Biggest issue is with Galadriel and the High Elves. I especially hate the whole return to Valinor scene. Gil-Galad has no authority to order anyone to sail West, and certainly would not order Galadriel who is his great aunt. Also the way the scene was shot it just looked absolutely ridiculous. Not liking Galadriel's whole motivation being based on Finrod's death either, and the change to Finrod's death. It's just a weird way to go with her character. Finrod was good in the one scene he was in, still wish they gave him long hair. Elrond and Celebrimbor's conversation about the Feanor and the Silmarils was great though, and you can already see the seeds being planted for where it takes the story. Looking forward to more from both of them.

AMC Fresh Meadows decreased because that area is mostly Asians and my people realized it's much cheaper on Saturdays and are too cheap not to change days . -

This is a digital release, not in theaters, and no it’s not the extended cut.
