Star Wars fails to out sell Korean movie, "The Himalayas" in shock.
The highly touted force awakens movie fails to gain traction in Asia and especially Korea, with a measly $1.3 million Friday in the Asian country.
Koreans had been off put by the casting choices and lack of male lead.
Japan's Box Office weekend was also stunningly low, failing to break the bar set by episode 3, the prequel.

In Japan, the $13.5 million take was well behind the opening weekend of Star Wars: Episode III — Revenge of the Sith, which bowed to $18.97 million in Japan in 2005

The bigger question is how did it do in Best™ Korea?
>gooks ignore one shitty movie in favor of an even shittier movie
Your point?
>>63898072
>spend 4 billion dollars on cu.ck propaganda
>lose to a fucking mountain climbing movie
try again merchants
Like everybody said, by putting a black guy in the movie, it will underperform outside of Anglo countries. For whatever reason, Anglo nations love blacks while the rest of the world could care less about them.
>>63898015
Why is she so smug? :/
it will do shitty numbers in Eastern Europe and Russia also
>>63898233
because she is korean and knows she will get a new face soon
Here she is post-whitening, after getting her eyes and jaw done to be caucasian style.
>>63898199
Oh yes, you totally know what you're talking about and aren't pulling shit out of your ass anon.
I mean, as we all know, Japan, Brazil, and Mexico are as anglo as countries get.
too bad i'll have to wait a year to see right now, wrong then haha
>>63898199
>it will underperform outside of Anglo countries.
You couldn't be more wrong. It's had the highest opening of all time in Japan.
Which honestly is quite possibly why it's doing poorly in Korea, since they automatically hate whatever Japan likes.
>>63898312
>mexico
>brazil
lel, literal shitholes with no importance
>>63898379
>You couldn't be more wrong. It's had the highest opening of all time in Japan.
Episode 3 had a higher opening than force awakens. You bought the disney hype.
>>63898379
>It's had the highest opening of all time in Japan.
Highest opening this year*

her face when running was so fucking bad, who runs while grimacing?

Maybe. But Hispnaics are quickly becoming relevant

It's no surprise that America's economy will look more and more like South America as the genetics change.

Why is black not changing at all?

How can one white man be SO based?
Who fucking cares about what movies Koreans like? Those retards still play brood war

Abortions.
Mehicans on the other hand are usually very religious and don't abort nearly as often.
>>63897951
>Koreans had been off...............and lack of male lead.
The cast must reflect with the changing times they said. Hollywood is too white they said.
But they added a scene with tentical monsters it'll be popular in Japan.
>>63897951
gooks hate blacks, not star wars fault
>>63898771
It more than doubles, fuckwit.
maybe if they had an asian actor in the movie
you know for all the diversity star wars still doesn't have one prominent asian person
>>63898978
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>63898827
since we are shitposting about box office (which /tv/ seems to be obsessed with)
Avatar, Jurassic World and Frozen all made huge bank in Korea and China
>>63898772
they made the new world, medicine, technology, etc
>>63899059
I'll give you a minute to realize why you fucked up.
>>63899154
Well shit. My bad. Sorry anon.
>>63898663
Her acting was pretty terrible. However, due to Hollywood's current strunk wimmin agenda, any criticism aimed toward her would be considered sexist, and therefore the critic better check his privilege.

>we love diversity

>lets put a gorilla in this movie
seriously hollywood?? Why not cast an asian?? or if you want to do more business in america cast a mexican?
Why does diversity mean black?? Seriously?
TRAITORS
>>63899409
Because it's fine to be openly racist against Asians and whites in Hollywood. It's also fine to be racist against the blacks, but you have to pretend to care about them.
>>63898199
I'm pretty sure france, germany and the scandies are still top cuck, there are hardly any niggers in australia, only neolib sjws are cucks in the US and canada but the UK is pretty cuck they love muslim nigger curry dick over there.
>>63899409
>or if you want to do more business in america cast a mexican?
Mexicans are considered white by liberals.
>>63899708
>I'm pretty sure france, germany and the scandies are still top cuck
Only when it comes to political talk, their non-white shit only survives because of government subsidies.
>>63899867
Well, liberals consider anyone who doesn't do their bidding 24/7 an Enemy.
Remember how quickly gays were cast to the wayside after gay marriage was legalized and liberals couldn't use them as fodder for protesting?
based Korea
>>63898642
give them time, I'm sure the government has to edit it, and insert scenes of the supreme leader as the hero before they can release it
>>63898335

I live in Korea and can comfirm. I was surprised I could buy star wars tickets without pre-booking. Just walked up to the lady and asked for ticket and boom, great seats.
Most of the audience was female which was weird tho
>>63898663
I would love to see you try outrun a bombing run from a TIE fighter and not pull some kind of face
Then again you'd probably grimace from having to do any physical activity in the first place you fat autist
>>63897951
of course it's going to lose out against a local movie, because Korean's strong sense of nationalism.
it has nothing to do with the lead since Koreans are used to having female leads in their films.
Asia doesn't like black people

The last Asian actor that was masculine was killed on set and so was his son
>>63902852
this, they tried to tone him down on the poster, but then they got bad press over it, now everyone knew theres a nigger main character
>>63902834
o shit

>>63899918
That's basically the same for every country in Europe.

Nope.
>>63898663
Like half of people who actually run hard.
But to know that you would have had to do it. So no fault on you.
So now Koreans are sexist. But oh shit, calling Koreans sexist would be racist. It must be shit being a leftist
I saw it today at CGV LA, is a Korean theater in LA. They were not having any of it. And the trailer for Himalayas made it look bad.
>>63898199

Kek, what the flying fuck are you talking about? Shillary is trillions of miles from becoming president.
>>63898663
i just thought she looked silly when running in general. like whne she ran to help BB8 in the beginning she looked kinda stiff. other than that i liked her.
>>63897951
wtf is that jet li
>>63904057
nah, the librals will make her president. cali is firmly shillary which gives them a huge amount of power. i find it funny that all the coastal states are liberal and the middle states are conservative, but we know why they are :^)

Um yes. The most hyped movie of all time with the most theatre openings couldn't even beat Jurassic World. If Star Wars wanted to flex on JC, then it needed to at least beat Jurassic World which it failed to do. No doubt the sequel to the 2.7 billion dollar movie could open far greater than it.
>>63902834
i would run to the side

Best girl won.
Jokes on them.
Asians don't care about star wars. While star wars was a thing, Korea was rebuilding their nation under threat of artillery fire from the north, and japan was still a producer of cheap crap.
>>63897951
Look, this is how it is.
Asians. Hate. Blacks.
Everyone who has lived with them or lived in any their countries knows this. It's not a secret. It was discussed by execs in the Sony email leaks about how they were reluctant to greenlight a new Denzel action franchise because they knew it would do well in America and EU but would take a huge hit all over Asia. They won't go see films with black leads.
>>63897951
That's a JUST face right there in the left poster..
>>63898505
Cameron is a fucking twink who needs a wedgie.
>>63904526
It was established long ago as part of the /tv/ lore that Cameron fags are legit redittors.
>>63904473
wouldn't do that well in EU either, Straight Outta Compton for example didn't make much in Europe
>>63904057
I am firmly right of center and even I know hillary will win.
>>63904473
The only movies that do well with a black lead literally has Jackie Chan in them.
Many Asians on their native forums feel insulted that every race got catered to except Asians. Jurassic World and Furious 7 had Asians in supporting roles. TFA had one token female x-wing pilot.
Someone at Disney made the call for no Asians during casting. I can not honestly believe that no Asians were asked to audition, that fact that all but one got through speaks volumes.
Whoever made that call, is most likely gone.
