China isn't the second audience that Hollywood is concerned with right now. The UK is. Yeah China and India have a metric shitton of people, but they don't have the middle class wealth or the number of quality theaters to cater to them.
Speaking of sequels/remakes/whatever, I wouldn't mind seeing a modern take on Back to the Future. Not a sequel, not a continuation, and not a remake. Set it in 2015, with the main character (hell change the teen lead to a chic so I get some eye candy) and she goes back to 1985. Lots of people are nostalgic about the 80's, so why not? There are plenty of good writers out in Hollywood who can churn out the right script. Get a decent cast, the right script, the right director and boom. Good movie.

They're basically the same audience as the US. They can use the same strategies, scripts, and actors in the UK as they can with the US. China and India require a completely different approach.

China certainly has a middle class (in the cities at least) and has more than doubled the amount of theaters in their country in the past 2 years and viewership of films increases 20% each year, with no sign of stopping.

You're completely suggesting a remake.
