The article is talking about how China is releasing The Dark Knight Rises and The Amazing Spider Man on the same dates so that American movies lose money . They lose money because of the fact movies get a big chunk of there money on the opening day , since they are both opening on the same day they lose money because they have to split the money . Especially if they are the same Genre because they have the same type of movie goers going to two different movies . For example the movie Ice Age brought in $51 Million while Lorax brought in only $1 Million . This article caught my eye in particular because of the fact Dark Night Rises , being opened on the same day with other movies will lose money and me myself really liking this movie is sad to see it lose money for stupid reasons .
This article to me as a student wont really affect me , but as a future film maker it will really hurt sales in China and it will make me lose profit . This will then hurt my chances to make more movies for people . As a consumer it will affect me severely because of the fact that the directors wont bring in as big of a profit so they sometimes wont get the money to make another movie . Say with Lorax , It gained only $1Million while it had $71 million in America .This then brings up the idea of how long will companys deal with this . Warner Bros has already tried to delay there movies but failed , and other companys don't want to oppose in fear that they will offend China .
WHAT?!?!……Wow i had no idea china could hold grudges like that, even to the extent were they loose large amounts of money doing that they still do it? that's unbelievable.
