It’s not just politically sensitive subjects that are circumscribed. Over the past year, state censors bound by prudish socialist mores have banned time travel, one-night stands and even Fan’s cleavage from Chinese TV. In August, the national media regulator warned local news programs not to “express overt admiration for Western lifestyles” — generally the sort of lifestyles glorified by Hollywood. A new Chinese film law that was recently adopted warned in draft form that movies need to be more “centered on the people, guided by core socialist values” — values that surely don’t include R-rated films.

 

Would the movie Crazy Rich Asian?, fall into the above statement?.

Fuck them. They are going to go the way of Japan in the 80's. Watch. These aren't the underdogs we rooted for, these are the Manchus we booed. It's sad.

Fan’s megawattage proves that celluloid success no longer depends on making it big in Hollywood.

What a lie. See Exhibit A: Amitabh Bachchan and Exhibit B: Dharmendra.

I'm with @NoKUNGFUforYU  Aren't they doing some foul sh!t right now like holding 1 million Muslims in concentration camps? China is really pissing me off right about now.
