I know. You thought you were all progressive and woke and shite, but you were just being bent over and having your a-hole mastered by eastern thought controllers.

Just an ideologically crafted media lemming.

Censorship does not automatically equal propaganda is what I was getting at when I asked about the nunchucks in the UK release of TMNT.

Propaganda is a promotion of an agenda. A banned weapon not being depicted in a movie is not promotion of an agenda just as shrinking the size of a black character on a movie poster in a different country is not promoting an agenda.

Ok buddy. Congrats on being completely incapable of defending your claims. It's become fairly obvious you don't even know what constitutes as propaganda since you can't come up with anything to support the notion a Star Wars movie, a Cinderella movie, and a female superhero movie is somehow endorsing the Chinese government's agenda.

Propaganda is a promotion of an agenda.
quote:

STEPHEN COLBERT: They've been doing it for years. In the disaster movie, "2012," humanity is saved because the Chinese government had the foresight to build life-saving arcs. In "Gravity," Sandra Bullock survives by getting herself to the Chinese Space Station. That movie did so well in China, she went back and re-shot "The Blindside" with an underprivileged table tennis player.
quote:

if you're lucky enough for your movies to have been chosen, then you have to submit your script beforehand to Chinese censors. Chinese censors can and will and have done so, change your script, change your movie
quote:

The Chinese censor will go through it, and then say that there is a Tibetan character. This happened in a movie, I believe it was "Red Dawn," in which there was a ... No, it wasn't "Red Dawn," sorry. It was "Doctor Strange." "Doctor Strange" had a Tibetan character, and the studio that was making "Doctor Strange" changed it to a Celtic character, in order not to acknowledge that such a thing as a Tibetan exists, that there is such an identity and a group of people called Tibetans.
quote:

and it's not just censorship of Hollywood movies that are shown in the Chinese mainland. It's the censorship of Hollywood movies that are shown to American audiences.
quote:

You've also written that now U.S. scriptwriters and producers are beginning to even preempt the censorship boards in China, and they're starting to write films that they know will be able to pass the test of China. GONZALEZ: Right, that's exactly right. Yeah. DOESCHER: So, we're self-censoring ourselves? GONZALEZ: I think Katzenberg talked about that, and I quoted in one of my papers. It's Pavlovian. If you know you're going to whacked in the head when you do something, over time you tend not to do that.
quote:

Richard Gere who was Hollywood's biggest draw, Hollywood's biggest draw until he disappeared from sight. Why did Richard Gere disappear from sight? Because, he was pal-ing it around with the Dalai Lama, the religious leader of Tibetans. He was promoting the cause of the Dalai Lama, and of Tibetan independence, and of the Buddhist religion. So, any movie that Richard Gere makes is not going to be shown in China, denying hundreds of millions of dollars to Hollywood studios. So, guess who's not in a major Hollywood blockbuster, and hasn't been in the last 20 years? Richard Gere.
quote:

We should have transparency. If a Hollywood studio has transmitted a scrip to Chinese censors, if Chinese censors have been invited on the set to guide how a movie is made ... all these things that do happen.

Yeah, no agendas there.

You fricking cuck.

Trying to change the subject and ad hominem attack ehh?

Again, I'm asking you about The Last Jedi, the planned Sony Cinderella movie, and an all female superhero movie that ScarJo is pushing for.

Once more, please explain how any of those movies are Chinese propaganda.

Also, at decrying Chinese propaganda while using an article from The Heritage Foundation to argue your point.

So you still can't give any example from The Last Jedi, Sony Cinderella, and ScarJo's female superhero flick? Keep trying to change the subject hoss.

this shite show is splattered all over the bowel. alfred hitchcock couldn't provide a cohesive ending. And they are inexplicably bringing a dead villain back to life because they lack the creativity to write good villain from scratch. why not bring back darth vader too? how about cgi alec guiness?

Still waiting for examples from the specific 3 movies you've recently claimed were Chinese propaganda.

They need to wait another 10 years before anymore Star Wars movies after this one.
Disney will never do it though.

Same thing with Marvel, I would wait 5 years and then reboot the whole thing.

Just like I thought.

Maybe next time you'll come more prepared.
