    That would actually be a net positive as films wouldn’t be censored to appease daddy China.

    Also films would have lower budgets.

      Imagine if we had gotten a storm trooper turned Jedi instead of yet another desert orphan for the star wars sequels, like all the promotional materials before the first movie seemed to hint at.

      Thank goodness they’re taking the politics out of movies!

      Takes a billion dollars to portray the US military as really cool and badass

        False dichotomy. Not being censored by China doesn’t mean being funded/influenced by the US.

    Finally American superheroes will no longer need to go to Shanghai and work with a heroic PLA special agent to save the world.

      I like this idea even better. China pirates them, plays them in theatres, takes the money generated from them anyways, lol
