If The Great Wall (starring Matt Damon) is any indication, be prepared for a near future where Chinese blockbusters will compete against Hollywood blockbusters for audiences.
China is the only movie market which can afford the same budgets as Hollywood. The storytelling and CGI isn't quite there yet but it will be - it's a matter of when, not if.
As a neutral third party, I'm pretty excited to see this clash of east-west ideas
- icebraining 9y agoThe storytelling (...) isn't quite there yet Funny comment, since the story and screenplay writers are actually Americans :)
- wccrawford 9y agoDirection and production mean a lot to storytelling, too, though. It's not enough just to write a good script.
- icebraining 9y agoYes, fair enough, my comment was a bit tongue-in-cheek. Although by the description of the plot, I don't think any direction could have saved it.
