Will flop. World likes white superheroes


It’s just how it is. The Chinese will not want to see this, China is where flops turn profits.

I don’t see them picking this one up.

TLJ also flopped in China which is just crazy.

Yeah okay SWS, totally.... except of course the success of Blade even with it's R rating sparked the Marvel /superhero blockbuster craze that's still going strong 20 years later. Hancock was definitely a box office flop though. It barely made four times it's $150 million budget.

I don't like any superheroes. Black, white, yellow, brown or whatever, they all suck.

Well I was half right. According to this article it didn't do well in China.

It did better than most MCU films have done in China. $105 million in China makes it the 11th most profitable of the 23 MCU films at the Chinese box office. Plus, it's the 12th highest-grossing film worldwide in history, and 4th domestically. I'd say it did well by any measure.

Because Chinamen are all racists. Friggen bat-eating weirdos. You'll never catch me disparaging an entire culture like they do.
