What the fuck? A few months ago they were just expanding the limit for foreign movies and now they're completely cutting them out? These idiots at the government infuriate me.

Never believed so actually. They say one thing and do another.

Any word on Expendables 2/Prometheus?

TE2 should be in end of September. Prometheus, some says early Sep. But I dont see a chance at all.

Resident Evil 5 won't be released?! What was the country where Resident Evil 4 did the same as DOM? Japan?EDIT: I just checked BOM and it was Japan, bit it still did 21M in China. It is a shame that RE5 won't get released there.

America should answer in kind: no Chinese goods can be imported during the summer monthes

The economy is bad enough - more expensive goods is the LAST thing the US needs.

Wow... Such a shame. So much potential in the Chinese box office and yet the government is holding it back.

I'm sure many Americans would be ready to pay more for US-made products if they can help in decreasing the unemployment rate to a large extent.The Chinese government shouldn't be too confident. Edited July 27, 2012 by Fullbuster

I want to work in foreign trade so believe me I'm not a fan of protectionism, I just think developed countries should help companies to make their products in their countries, nothing forced, the principle of competitiveness.The US doesn't need protectionism, the rising labor costs in China and the cheap energy costs in the US (way lower than Asian energy costs because of the shale gas boom), some fiscal policies helping manufacturers could be helpful.

WTF?Seriously, what's wrong with you Chinese government?

It's a dictatorship? Edited July 27, 2012 by raniE

[Rudolf]

It's a dictatorship?

even worse it is a hipocrisythey belive in free trade only for products where they are competitive, everwhere else their market needs to be protected

No

[Lordmandeep]

Yeah..You can get big grosses but China is adding like 50-100 million to every big film overseas these days.It helps a lot

[A Marvel Fanboy]

No

It needed, definitely.Sometimes it does not happen, but it is needed.
