Entertainment Produced In The US vs Entertainment From Other Countries

The US & Canada lead the world in entertainment terms of how much money is made, but when it comes to movies India produces the most movies. China is a big player in the entertainment industry, but all of these countries consumer entertainment from the US, but why is entertainment from other countries not that big in the US?

Americans are too lazy to read subtitles.

Double negatives make my head hurt.

Why isn’t it not big? So why isn’t it big? I’m confused, don’t use double negatives.

True. And shows like The Office was a show in England first. It seems like there are gameshows that originated in England first before coming to the US as well.

The Office came from the UK.

Do you want to see an indian car chase? What would that even look like.

I’ve learned that the united states is far behind Europe when it comes to non fiction war movies. Amazon Prime has taught me that fact.

We produce so much that it takes something from overseas being exceptional to get noticed.
The language barrier on a large number of works doesn’t help either. Anything coming over either gets subbed (which isn’t too popular) or dubbed (which is more popular but also expensive and hit-and-miss quality wise).
To put some of this in context, even some works from English speaking countries like the UK, Scotland, and Jamaica require dubbing or subbing due to thick accents.
