China's movie market to rival Hollywood

[beijingwalker]

under currrent political enviornment,China can't make good movies,the stringent censorship could strangle any movies to be considered out of line.but China does have the potential to buy into Hollywood and become one of its major share holders.

Art house films are simply too intellectual for Bollywood audience. So I won't expect you to know anything about mainland chinese movies.

Oh! Nice use of pampered words. Mainland's film industry couldn't flourish because of too much of political interfere.

Thanks for proving me right, indeed bollywood audience knows nothing about Art house or film making. 1) Censorship does equate to political interference, you have censorship too.
2) The quality of script writer, producer, director and cinematographer have nothing to do with politics.

Mainland films have won all prestigious art house films award since 80's. Just to name a few directors and their critically acclaimed works.

Don't be so sore that others are simply better than you. Learn to accept facts and be gracious, it's good for character development.

Are you claiming that only Chinese know how to make art movies.

Your typical brainless rhetoric does not warrant an intellectual reply. Try bollywood forum.

Chinese movies are cheap B grade flicks. Korean movies are far better.

Do you mean movies and not the TV series? If you do mean the Korean Tv series, they have the tendency to picture the good side of Korea and only the GOOD SIDE. I've watched many Korean Movies and Tv Series. If you want the reality of Korea, watch Korean movies and not the TV series.
In the TV series from every boy, girl, street, house, apartments, country, cars, sidewalks everything is displayed in a grand style. It's not the true picture of Korea.

Yeah, good one.

Hollywood is literally at it's prime.

Korean TV shows are for the mentally handicapped, they stretch a bland story for 200 episodes. Endless dialogue in the same two to three setting coupled with terrible acting.

Its popularity is almost exclusively tied within hallyu of the late 2000s. Only the Ahjumma and the unemployed actually watch these garbage shows.

No, we don't watch Bollywood at all. Jackie Chan is as American as Chris Tucker is Chinese. Haven't you see watched his older movies? Those are the truly great ones. Most of his Hollywood movies flopped in Asia, except Rush Hour.

I suppose it means that the size of Chinese market now is close to the U.S. market, e.g. in revenue level.

I do not think the quality can be compared at the same level right now.

Chinese movies are no match to Hollywood movies.

I'll really love to see some Chinese movies like The House of Flying daggers.It was a very good watch.
