Clear Sky Master Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 1 hour ago, Sophia Jane said: Please Stop guessing just by your personal opinion without any evidence We import many US military movie,not all the kind of movie banned It’s not really a guess. It’s plain obvious why Top Gun Maverick failed to pass censorship in China. The movie was partly sponsored by Tencent and Paramount even offered to remove both the Japanese and Taiwanese flags from the jacket to appease Chinese authorities. However, still that wasn’t good enough and as a result Tencent was forced to completely disassociate themselves from the project because they didn’t want to offend the powers that be. Since the beginning of the US-China cold war in 2018, China has been clamping down hard on US cultural influence and promotion of US military.

This is great news! im guessing China is temporarily lifting Hollywood quota in order to boost domestic consumption and calm the economy. Just don’t expect it to last. Once there is a steady line up of domestic movies i fully expect the barrier to be put back in place. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

honeycookiez Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 This outcome is expected since the day Iger has back in town, he also has a good network and relationships in mainland China.

All Hollywood studios will have an equal opportunity of releasing their blockbusters in China so long as they don’t insult Chinese culture and/or its people.
