They pay Disney to make movies for them.
Dominic Ross
They make great amount of movies. You just don't live in china or otherwise have enough interest to watch those
Luis Nelson
its all pro-china propaganda with the exact same themes, motif, and mise-en-scene.
Thomas Wood
Wow it's almost like the U.S. has a lock on exporting culture and that's why this board has become 90% America-obsessed and addicted globoplebs seething that America doesn't entertain them like it used to.

Chino chuds... it is OVER for us!

How much of that is NEET bux spent on waifu anime and figures and gacha games?
Blake Phillips
If you're going to ask why they don't have good movies, then it's best to ask an Asian film maker his thoughts.
Because yes there are absolutely problems

But there are masterpieces that hold up to any of the greatest Hollywood movies.

>Italy has a bigger economy than south Korea, Russia and the Netherlands
??? since when?
Christian Foster
GDP is an outdated, irrelevant and fundamentally misguided way of measuring "wealth" and prosperity.
Gavin Jones
they have a closed market and don't export movies outside or they basically don't get imported.
The problem is that the media companies that produce an export movies is basically 4, wb, sony, universal, disney, and those have the money to push the movies everywhere, those companies are basically all americans too. You won't really see an italian/german/french/korean movie pushed internationally apart from some rare cases, even if they produce a lot of movies, america has the monopoly
Thomas Thompson
I'm Australian and my number is 14 so that's pretty damn close.
tfw it's been 6 years since I had sex and almost 10 since I had a girlfriend.
Evan Jenkins
What the fuck are the Japanese even doing with that economy.
You don't hear about anything going on there these days.

>believing self reported data
all this says is that Turks are the world's biggest liars
Benjamin Wilson
This. U.S. GDP keeps going up while 99% of the country has been slipping into second world tier for almost two decades now.
China's the only one who comes close to their GDP and China is an even bigger shithole.
GDP per capita is a better measure but it's still not great, the sum of all wealth is not illusory fiat bucks produced per year.
Nolan Evans
They literally had the highest grossing movie 2 years in a row

>big gastronomic and gourmet shit market
>pharmaceuticals
>arguably the nr 1 tourist spot in europe
what do you think it should have been smaller than korea (basically samsung and kpop), russia (just oil and military and the rest is a shithole), and netherlands (an irrilevant country if it wasnt for amsterdam whores and weed)?
Austin Foster
Africa will have 2 billions more people in 30 years and their economy is smaller than pacific Asian countries
Jaxson Martin
OP does not speak Chinese.
Joseph Cruz
I'm sure it'll be fine. Let's build some schools.
Brody Miller
because their precious priceless resources were stolen from them by all the other continents
Ethan Bailey
And Russia invaded Ukraine who is reinforced by all of Europe + USA...
Jonathan Morgan
You mean the ones they didn't do anything with for all of human history prior?
Parker Thomas
Hahahah biggest load of shit I've ever seen
David Thompson
How does that discount their wealth being stolen? If they have no opportunity to rise up because France still has quasi colonial power over them, why are you blaming them for having weak GDP?
Caleb Gonzalez
You do hear about them working themselves to death so that had to count for something. Also LOOK AT THOSE NUMBERS
