Hollywood Marvel DC flop, SK drama, Anime, Manga dominates

Postby Buraku » Wed May 12, 2021 4:13 am

A massive cultural shift just happened.

Japan just killed all of America's modern day mythological comicbook Gods
American comics do not sell anymore, all sales are Japanese.
We're back to the late 80s recession era art/culture and early 90s? ...or maybe as far back as the culture of 1920s and 1930s??...or back to some other weird era in ancient history?
https://otakuusamagazine.com/kodansha-p ... et-demand/


In the cinemas now across the United States of America with the world distracted by politics and Brexit, with Trump not taking the virus serious enough in a new American with Joe Biden printing bailout money? they are re-showing stuff like 'Scott Pilgrim vs. The World' a film made back in 2010...the last time they reshowed stuff in cinema Americans were the post Vietnam era recessions, the oil crisis, the downturn recessions of the 70s and 1980s
Scott Pilgrim is a series toons and drawings novels by Canadian author and comic book artist Bryan Lee O'Malley, he writes and draws Japanized style Western drama action stuff in the style of Ranma ½ or other Japan toons for local Canadian people, its a film that did ok many years ago.
They are re-showing it 11 years later...Hollywood has got nothing....shooting blanks....so whats next for American cinematic media, showing old Black and White Godzillia movies for the next 10 years? Maybe putting old Cowboy films, Lone Wolf and Cub, or Seven Samurai films in the cinema to keep them open?
Maybe they can become underground Vaudeville comedy dancing and booze clubs, speakeasy party, juke joints, prohibition party during the lockdowns.

Comicbooks and Cinema? There are only a few places selling International Box Office Movies, you got China and that's really it, America and Japan are close to the same lowest levels, then you have to go to Aus and New Zealand for the movies to make money in the Cinema and Theatre. A Hollywood comicbook movie production costs hundreds of millions to make, the money to be made at some Australia cinema or South Korea cinema or Czech Republic or Russia or Argentina will never be enough to recover their multi million Dollar losses.

The old American film and Comicbook is dead, even Neo Marvel and Neo DC and Superman and Captain America are all dead
it will never be the same

Maybe Covid killed Captain America and Superman?
Comicbooks are changing and maybe it was more than Corona, maybe comics & politik? The political stage show, crazy pendulum swings back and forth between extreme left and extreme right
In a country that loves free speech and an America that tells its patriots a story that it needs more war and filth pornography, you see censorship. You might not like Michael Francis Moore for his activism but he provoked reaction and was Boo'ed at the Oscars. Two Big movies were banned after 911, 'The Profit' and in more modern times 'The Yes Men Fix the World' blocked from making their product due to Bureaucratic Religious Legal Case madness and censored thanks to the Oligarch Autocracy Lawsuits...countless other people of art, journalism, media, comicbooks and film making now have been censored by Religious Zealotry and Jihadism and censored by a Neo-Corporation a BigTech Machine. People today get censored by the Machine that is Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, a sitting US President was censored on social media. The artists some had the plug pulled early, they got their power to their comicbook film studio cut and never got to see their art projects take off.
Senses feel wrong, young adults and kids feel something is off, the last time something on this scale happened, a Great depressive recession came. Back then foreign material would flood America's streets like Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis, women from Latin America and Europe sold their Naughty Girl stuff to publishers in NYC who printed scandal drama stores about premarital sex, pregnancy, and childbirth, banned of course... Dostoevsky and other East Europeans were getting their works translated, Virginia Woolf, James Joyce, French like Éluard pushed themes of revolution, communism, dada-ism, imperialism and surrealism, a guy called Oswald Spengler born in Blankenburg of the imperial germanic empire wrote about a Decline of the West...these books occasionally had drama scandal these new books with softer political themes were sometimes even banned and censored, T. S. Eliot renouncing his American citizenship, an old Russia film “Battleship Potemkin” or Marx Brothers “Duck Soup” or “The Mikado” censored or “Convention City”, “Zéro de conduite”, “Scarlet Street”, “Oliver Twist” or The Men Who Tread on the Tiger's Tail or MickeyMouse and DonaldDuck and other cartoons and film works were banned for offense, another movie after another was getting itself banned, or blacklisted and shadow banned, the artistic creator blocked from media, getting un-personed, Censored around the World for Social messages? ...George Orwell's work known to America, a book Down and Out in Paris and London replacing sales of America's home grown writing and art.
The original uniquely modern American artistic comicbook movie produce of today has been distorted, the modern comic/film it is now becoming just an Ego Project for some Elite Weirdo Activist. The comic book film produce is now sometimes a foreign weirdo actvist with an agenda, sometimes a rich American weirdo and their own personal Antifa, Gay, BLM, Marxist political statement forced into a movie or comicbook page?

Culture War or CULTURAL CONQUEST
Asia is making better comicbook art wonders that's what young adults and kids think. Maybe now there is a feeling of wrong form of government in the West, the young citizen unhappy with art, this hollyweird gov-cultural link can drastically reduce the amount of culture accepted as genuine. People are feeling everything is over politicized or produced by a fake plastic machine, the Religious Temples and Cultural Art Museums stand empty, the tone deaf rapper crap is produced with no melody no harmony no composition no chords yet this mindless vulgar Rap shit has been accepted by Studio Producers as musical and artistic they push out this Low IQ noise and 'percussive poetry' with cuss words for America's people, the rock people who knew tricks of 3 or 4 chords...these oldies with simple guitar tricks are called genius of today and they ask 'What the Fuck happened?'.
People ask what happened to the artistic heart, what happened to classic rock or old African American inspired blues, even the kids seem to know more than your Casting couch Record Producer does, the new rock is denounced as fake or noisy or not a genuine player, pop music is said to be a fake industry auto tuned a computerized A.I fake DJ software program making better music than a real person, rich multi million dollar talentless rappers lecturing people from the hood and the other visual media, the video game the comicbook itself is also said to be 'wrong'. The US citizen readers will continue to denounce the American's own art, they dislike their own writing and comics, a broken Faith in the Arts and there is now the strange look to foreign lands, buying foreign art productions a worship of foreign Great Works
If its were a Video game quest Japan vs USA, would Japan be winning a Culture/Trade Win?

All of the Top Comics the Top Graphic Novels are Japanese now, the big sellers will remain Japanese for sometime :keyboardcoffee:
Superman is dead and Captain America is dead
...i dunno maybe its the flu virus masks that are making the kids and young adults sub consciously buy that Ninja Anime face-mask stuff?
:spin:

So why are Japanese comics selling better than American comics and media in the United States of America...maybe its because they are like S.Korea's movie industry showing no shame of being Korean or like the Kurosawa era films, maybe its because they are not hung up on weird political issues, they have their own style and are unapologetically Japanese?
https://goodereader.com/blog/manga-and- ... rt-in-2021
Manga sales off to a strong start in 2021

The US comic industry dies fast.
Maybe its the Islamo-philes, maybe its the Marxist messages that turned kids away from comics... maybe the make everything Gay, Dyke, Homosexual, tranny Lesbian thing, the Negroid-Afro-Phillia ethnomasochism thing, maybe its the Pro-Antifa stuff the Neo-Left messages, Maybe its all the Occult Angst symbols...the Social Justice Movement a confused group of Bolseviks, Feminist, Fascists and Communists that will Eat Themself?
American people ARE NOT BUYING AMERICAN
A Libertarian slightly conservative slightly Right Liberal guy Jordan Peterson is now the Red Skull.
Someone offends the Corporate political media, Jordan Peterson's book is a bestseller, but hey he said something that will monetize Social Justice Warriors.
Everything selling on comics today is Japan not America, all selling is about some Anime or Japan Manga...not in Japan...In America, the United States...Japan won

Maybe old senator joe mccarthy arrived too early and was having paranoid hissy fits before anything real happened, a man before his time.
did America's comicbook entertainment media Seppuku Hara kiri and suicide itself?
The comicbook industry and entertainment industry of the USA perhaps suicide bombed itself?

Or maybe
Japan killed Americans comicbook myths and Japanese defeated USA's neo-Gods
Maybe its the Hollyweird Commiefornia club? A woman Schaeffer gets replaced, she wrote the Marvel Studios film Black Widow starring Scarlett Johansson, until she was replaced with Ned Benson, Jacqueline or Jac Schaeffer yeah she probably knows those Masonic Rome Babylon rituals and knows about the Casting Couch blackmail, she is Jewish on her father's side, she does movie but doesn't seem to have much skill making these films yet she got the job and is part of the Big Multi Billion Dollar production club? ...but Japan's magical anime creatures destroying America's new mythical creature, God-slaying of sorts....a Japanese myth killing USA's comicbook neo-Gods
that weird pretentious occult faggot Neil Gaiman didnt see that one coming...this Britbongistan Occult fag credits himself for Japanese animations like Princess Mononoke btw, just dub the shit out of it, American's are too lazy to read subtitles and it might explain why best foreign-language dubs of films into the U.S. market are always a fucking disaster
pedo rape studio Miramax had the deal on Japan animation cartoon flicks, Miramax that was founded by Jewish Israeli Greatest Ally brothers Bob and Harvey Weinstein
Neil Richard Gaiman was born on November 10, 1960 in Portchester, England. He was into all that Babylon Masonic Occult shit and originated from a family of Eastern European Jewish decent, the family survived 6 holocausts and 6 gas chambers, got ties to the Pagan Occult Witchcraft clubs and links to homosexual parties from the Church of Scientology...he gave it all a Scientology and 'Debito' and 'Occult' translation, thats why your Engrish dubs and subtitles on anime is always not quiet English weird but kinda shabbos-schlomo-mann-schofill-aldwinckle-stein? The best way to get Lost in Translation is to use a few Eastern Europe Occult phrases, Hebrew Yiddish Londonistani or Scientology translation of Japanized Engrish, a weird translation made even more odd....a Lot of people cried about the death of J-anime, the classics were dead, no more new Mario Sonic Street Fighter Resident Evil Biohazard ideas for games, everything was already done! Ghost in the Shell, Cowboy Bebop, the Akira, the Macross stuff, all Japan's best entertainment years were behind it, sales would never be back, yet despite its slumps, falls and shit yiddish-scientology style translations, the Japanese media comicbook animation industry seems to be making a HUGE JAPAN COMEBACK
Another possible problem for sales within America, is US comics got hijacked by divisive radioactive toxic politics, the Social Justice Warrior and its Neo Identity Politik, hijacked by Feminism, yes strange as it sounds you do get radical women calling the shots in comics and other weird shit, they run video game companies, the strange Feminism women they make decisions at scifi movies and gamer studios. The American comic, it got taken over by that SJW-ism or Identity Politics or Antifa-ism or Gay-ism or Afro-ism or Pro-Jihad-ism might have taken over comics. Maybe comic books were about good stories and old fantasy scifi escape-ism, when politcis got forced into books people got tired of Politics in American comics and perhpas it made the kids and young people tried of the industry, they bought a Jpn instead of a forced narrative of political bullshit
Every Avengers or Captain Superman team these days seems to be changing their history or identity for whatever reason, the Super dude is now a Super Dyke or Super Captain goes trans-racial and becomes Black or goes Gay and gets Muslim or whatever, the kids cartoons have weird perverted messages in them?

Then Marvel even hired an Indonesian artist Ardian Syaf who added the jihad images and pro-islamist messages into comics. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... ewish.html
Regarding the meaning of these details in his artwork, Syaf cautioned against believing what is read on social media, but encouraged readers to buy the issue, as it would become a rare collectible. https://www.bleedingcool.com/2017/04/09 ... yesterday/ He eventually acknowledged the political nature of the hidden messages

But what about the good old days of WW2 propaganda, the Boomer years and post War comics?
I guess comics could offend and do almost any subject, at one time comics were propanda tools of the military, after the War they became more Liberal, then mccarthyism comic code authority...everyone was a commie...The Hollywood blacklist contained the name of Charlie Chaplin who was accused of being a communist...so the comicbook stories once again got juvenile and silly and cartoonish so not to offended...then it got more free over the years...now its ruined again, muslims offended by toons, people make death threats against South Park and Charlie Hebdo
then Social Justice Warriors took over comics culture and everything was an offense?
Every Rioter or Criminal in a comic is an offensive stereotype according to the SJWs of the Industry, every StarWars scene is suddenly offending some Gay acvistist or some Feminist, every Orc or Goblin in a Video Game or Board Game is Racialist or Racism? https://www.polygon.com/2020/6/23/21300 ... -of-strahd ....Not All Goblin Orcs the idiots say, Are Orc Goblins Racist?

At one time DC was the King, I guess Superman and Wonder Woman were god-like back in the days, DC was winning with its Batmans and Wonder Womans and Supermans, a change came in the early 60s with less godly more flawed or more grounded characters like the Xmens, the Spider-Man
https://zak-site.com/Great-American-Nov ... sales.html
If you read the numbers, Comicbook sales started to fall in the late 60s and 1970s and have been on the decline since, competition came from Japan and Indie American comics and foreign brands like 'Watchmen, The Crow' or Judge Dredd, but the Big American Marvel DC brand stayed, they would once in a while regain sales with some stunt a Neo-Batman or Captain America Reborn, new re-launch or Death of Superman, Death of Captain America but sales always dropped.
Sometimes numbers would pop up again but Trends were typically Down, the Standard mean or Average was always Down...Sales of America's comicbook mythology were dropping each and every year.
however as artistic media 'properties' they held value, the names Spider-Man or whatever were still valuable.
Warner Bros movie studio owned much of DC comics they owned Batman and Wonder Woman and Superman, Marvel owned a lot more superhero 'ideas' but Marvel as a Company Product Brand started to go bankrupt in the 90s, a lot of Marvel was sold, Sony for example owns the movie rights to many more Marvel characters than just Spider-Man. It's not just Venom, either. In fact, Sony has the rights to over 900 characters from Marvel's catalog, Marvel later would buy back its own brands and produce multi million and multi Billion Dollar hits like Ironman, Avengers etc then it changes, Disney now bought and owned Marvel as a whole in recent times.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe is worth something like $8,542,800,000 + Billion combined, its worth the GDP of small medium sized nation, worth more money than all Batman, all StarWars, all POtter, all 007 Bond movies combined.
All the movies are on hold, post poned, they were in pre-production, in castings, almost in Post Produced, just Announced...the Film seats in the Cinema are graveyards, the virus has made a Cinemtaic Apocalypse Wasteland.

I guess in a ways these were America's 'Gods' like Greek, Chinese, Arabia, Indian folklore and like Roman myths. The comicbook and the Comiccon thing was the modern mythology and entertainment of the United States, ancient dress up and folklore for a new nation. People took the old comic strips of Jerry Siegel, Joe Shuster, Bob Kane, Bill Finger, Stan Lee, Kirby, make them new. Maybe America's new gods were old gods with face lifts maybe they were inspired older American stories by Flash Gordon, the Norse gods, Robin Hood, Japanese folklore 16th-century Chinese novel Journey to the West, Frankenstein horror art, the religious Moses in a Basket Story, German and Salvic and Spanish Folkore, John Carter of Mars books inspired by other CaptainAmericas and Supermen and made them into modern entertainment properties for cartoons, books, video games and movies, America's new modern gods of sorts.
I feel the industry peaked some years ago, the industry was running out of ideas, it was Hollywood doing a new darker spin re-imagined and remakes a continuation maybe of an old Superman movie, the old Hulk tv series, the Batman JMS Joseph Michael Straczynski doing Thor comics and Thor movies, Joss Whedon doing Xmen comics doing Avengers movies, everyone wanted the Rightwing Murica first Frank Miller or the Leftwing Hippe weirdo Alan Moore, Heath Ledger portrayed the Joker in The Dark Knight and the Christopher Nolan films were considered 'High Art'


Now its all near dead
Maybe a few of the Big Great studios will survive.
People are spending money on Manga, overseas animation studios are popping up, you see the Japan and other overseas logos, the Toei Animation grows, you see a bunch of foreign exotic names taking over the Stores that remained Open, the traditional US Comicbook shopping is dying in America while and Kyoto Animation, Demon Slayer, Shueisha, Kodansha, attack on Titan, some French or maybe S.Korea or other nations logo.
Everyone is now buying Manga over whatever American comics are coming out.

Corona has finally killed the US comicbook, graphic novel, comics trade industry, Covid was the final nail in the coffin.
The United States used to have the biggest comicbook companies, in the end the TV shows were going all comicbooks, the biggest Comic Book Sales were the USA, every box office movie were based on some DC Marvel Superhero Avengers Justice League thing. Everything was becoming some Superman Spider-Man thing but now
the movies flop
and the comicbook sales also dive, Writers and Artists now out of a job in USA.

Most of the comicbook writers and artists will be claiming Welfare Benefit,

as much as one third of DC Comics’ editorial staff was laid off yesterday amid huge cuts at WarnerMedia in general. DC was hit hard, losing almost an entire level of editorial executives — but many familiar industry figures were also let go. As scattered as people are due to COVID-19, the comics community felt yesterday intensely and came together to urge support for most who lost their jobs.

Although Marvel made BILLIONS. Stan the Man Lee probably wasnt all that rich, born Stanley Martin Lieber is credited as one of the guys for modernizing the comicbook
his family were probably fighting over the million dollars at the time of his death, they would ship him around the conventions to sign autograph after signature to make money at conventions
Jack Kirby or Jacob Kurtzberg probably earned even less than Lee, his writing and art style compared to Cubist, Futurist, Primitivist and outsider art, the family have tried to sue DC and Marvel studios, Kirby's children "sued Marvel to terminate copyrights and gain profits from Kirby's comic creations."


Sales were thought to be always big in America. In France, the Comic Books are Serious Business, in S.Korea big sales, they are big in Italy the Italian spin on how to story board a visual fantasy scifi adventure, other comic sales in Canada, to focus a little on Japan. Sales in Jpn almost as big as America, they were in the equivalent of almost $13 billion USD
I have a bunch of comics stored some place, imagine an old Warehouse of general stuff or Storage Wars, I hope there are no oil leaks or drips in a roof because I think some of those comics are worth something. I'll have to phone an old friend about this. I was never a big comicbook reader but I still have a few boxes of comics in store, dropped off that I will maybe one day have to sell off, give some one a gift or sort out one day from, boxes in storage with lots and lots of comics days long long ago. I know some guys who moved around and they used to dump stuff as they moved. I know some of them might have worked with selling this stuff it would be interesting to hear what they think of the massive shifting change happening in the industry. I know some links and chains and warehouses and suppliers are starting to collapse now, nobody is making print, no orders are delivered, the supply chain has totally collapsed.

According to NPD BookScan, the manga buying spree continues in 2021. Sales of print manga titles in the U.S. increased by 3.6 million units in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020.
“Last year was our biggest year ever, despite the pandemic, and 2021 numbers are off the charts,” says Lianne Sentar, sales and marketing manager at Seven Seas Entertainment. “Based on what we’re seeing in these first few months, 2021 will be the biggest year yet—we’ve truly never seen numbers like these.”
https://www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by- ... sales.html
Kevin Hamric, v-p, publishing sales at Viz Media, says most publishers reported that manga sales were off to a strong start in 2020 before the pandemic hit, and by April manga sales had plummeted to “the lowest sales we’ve had in years.” But he adds that the market quickly recovered and has been on an upward trajectory ever since. “Even if 2020 had stayed on the track, 2021 is head-and-shoulders ahead. These past few weeks of 2021 are higher than holiday 2020.”
Kurt Hassler, publisher and managing director at Yen Press, a joint manga and graphic novel venture between Hachette and Japanese publisher Kadokawa, also noticed the buying trends. “For the first quarter of 2021, we saw our sales functionally double, which is well beyond anything we were forecasting,” he says.


Kodansha USA Publishing reports similar results according to Kodansha v-p of sales and marketing Yae Sahashi. “Print manga sales rocketed to a new high over holiday 2020 and, after a plateau in January, rose even higher in March and April,” she says. “In recent weeks, point of sale for the category has quadrupled year over year, even if you discount the negative impact of Covid-19 on sales last March.”
The anime effect
What’s driving all this sales growth? Some industry professionals say it’s a sign of a maturing market in which manga has established itself as part of mainstream pop culture, placing the category at the forefront of graphic novel sales, if not overall book sales in North America. Others say the growing popularity of anime on such streaming platforms as Amazon Prime, Hulu, Netflix, and the anime-centric platform Crunchyroll is fueling interest in its source material: print manga and light novels (illustrated prose works influenced by manga and anime).

“Anime and online fan communities are always the biggest drivers of manga sales,” Sahashi says. “We believe there’s been renewed and excited interest in anime, with new audiences brought in with each new season. Anime is now easier to watch wherever and whenever via platforms like Netflix, Crunchyroll, and Funimation. Many of the anime premiering right now were delayed from 2020 into 2021 due to the pandemic, which may be partly why spring manga sales have surpassed holiday sales for the first time.”
Sentar adds that “anime is driving much of this business, and it will continue to expand as countries—Japan and otherwise—tap into the hungry international market for adult animation.”
Anime is one of the fastest-growing categories at Netflix, which reported a 100% lift in anime viewing in 2020 compared to 2019, according to its 2020 Year in Review video report.

The US is losing soft power, Hollywood is dying

https://gameruprising.to/index.php?thre ... ing.19949/
'Combined with the end of the movie industry and transition to streaming, the US is simply nowhere near where it was in terms of soft power in the 80s. Everyone in places like Russia and Poland with above-average levels of intelligence knows how batshit insane the country is. Only some peasant-like people still believe in the US meme.
As time passes more and more people will start realizing how big of a mess US is. And the end of the movie industry will be a big blow. Right now, Hollywood is parasiting off of old IPs like Star Wars and the Marvel Universe, Fast and Furious and milking them dry '

Re: Marvel DC sales flop, J-Manga dominates Western comics.

Postby Buraku » Wed Jul 28, 2021 7:49 pm

Hollywood's soft propaganda power is almost dead. Maybe you could have got translated versions of this media, shipped all this anime stuff as an opportunity. However the Western market is not the same. A lot of bookstores now gone with Covid, everything is digital and E-book, VHS and DVD joint are no longer a thing, and comicbook places are closed... in another time maybe people could have made money from this but now the Walmart and Amazon took over during a lockdown.

There is a Japan toon and comic called 'One Piece' in Japan 日本語 は、'ONE-nu PIECE' アニメ . The One-Piece thing has been out in Japan forever, now they are finally discovering it in America thanks to online streaming services, while in the USA the artists and writers and toon makers in the USA want better pay, some worked for peanuts always hoping for that big hit to come. I don't think US artists or writers would be able to move to Japan for a better life because they don't really get Jpn entertainment, also the anime and manga guys also work for peanuts, in some industries for people in Japan they are often notoriously underpaid and over worked.
However Japan has found a way to kill the big brands like DC Warner Bros and Marvel and other big names.

Korea, Japan and other toonists and indie film makers seem to be less toxic, they were more free to make their own productr, they are starting to wreck hollywood, an Indie film maker outside of California, making his/her own Horror movie or Scifi does not have to follow any Hollywood agenda.

Putting SJW Antifa Altright Feminist 'Woke' politics into video games just seems really, really dumb. I don't think Gamers care for this kind of politics at all and it has been difficult for Western companies to compete with the Sony's and Sega's and new Playstation style gizmos and games without shooting themselves in the foot with shitty political decisions.

The Hollywood movies and Cartoons continue to have financial loss. We will soon be 2 years into this Covid pandemic which came from mainland China, we were told by many Leaders it would take 14 weeks to flatten the curve and then everything would be under control and back to normal. Today numbers increase in the States and thanks to the Olympics numbers are starting to sky rocket in Japan, this slow economic collpase and year long meat grinder of failures is not the sudden Apocalypse Hollyweird predicted by the movies. A number of countries did not use Lockdowns Uruguay, South Korea, the United States resisted Federal lockdowns and left each case to individual States, Uruguay did not lockdwon, Sweden was doing ok with herd immunity until it got into nursing homes, in the end their death rates were much higher than other Nordic nations and they sacrificed lots of their Elderly people Something people do not talk about and probably should talk about is how Americans before the virus were probably some of the most Fatty, Un-Healthy people on Earth,
that big American FATASS!
while its true the rest of the world is getting fatter nowhere else will you see those eat so much Fat and Sugar and Precessed Chemical junk, I feel this 'Fat' thing is what has always kept America behind the first world when it coems to health, this FAT thing has been going on a while back to President William Howard Taft or maybe it was tv and Kathy Bates, Anthony Anderson, Chris Farley, Rosie O'Donnell, Miachael Moore when being a fatass on tv, when it all went mainstream...maybe we can blame tv but nowhere else on this planet will you see so many men and women with these Giant Fatass, media and political leaders like Chris Christie or Barney Frank or in America you had the heaviest human being ever recorded, weighing 1,400 lb 635 kilograms; 100 fucking stone....many Americans were so fucking fat they can not get in the door, they were near death before the virus hit! The virus is not as bad as some first suggested, it is not a Doomsday Apocalypse virus and far less fatal than your typical 'Black Death' or previous Plagues. However not veryone is healthy and playing down the dangers of the virus would have been stupid, the virus will kill the unhealthy, it can destroy an internal economy as you see with Brazil and India, it will kill the vulnerable and the elderly. Other political leaders gave shit leadership they were supporting fake voodoo cures which in their own indirect way only helped destroy internal economies.

The Collapse of Hollywood and to see big Brands like DC Warner Bros and Marvel stumble might be a good thing. SpaceJam 2 seems to have flopped, LeBron a very toxic guy and not universally liked while Michael Jordan was a much different guy loved by all including non-Basketball fans. Most Hollywood movies are flopping, Tenet was a flop, the new Wonder Woman lost money and now SpaceJam part II will cost them million in the negative another box office turkey bombs.
As for general access to entertainment products you have a lot of online services that give Indie scifi and Horror movies from Across different parts of America and across the world so Hollywerido will probably lose its dominance. Corona has scared the studios, sets will be more controlled or smaller, they might try film in the open fresh air to or maybe use cheaper actors and move to States with better tax breaks. Whatever set or production studio opens up the guys will go there, to Aus, to Canada, to Hungary whatever place, Studios are global now and they have no loyalty to Commiefornia and will glady burn the place and move out of tinsel town if given the opportunity to make better bucks.
There probably would have been good opportunity to set up supply and buyers to fill up book shops and comicbook stores with Manga and Anime product but the whole Covid thing seems to have closed a lot of local book stores globally. Maybe the only people who will make big cash during the lockdowns are those selling robotic hand sanitizers, vaccines, the Walmarts and online stores like Bezos Amazon.

Another thing which might have destoryed Hollywood is not the virus
but 'WOKE' SJW culture, your comicbook or tv show must feature a diversity quota of black, white, yellow, brown, they want a muslim pro-Jihad thing, they want a Transexual,
many comic books and tv shows have this toxic left vs right politics in them but the fans don't want this, they want and good story and not political toxic stuff being shoved into every tv show and book.
Movie studios and Cartoon producers now seem to hate their own fan base?

Maybe film and toons from other places don't have so many hang-ups and issues, they have this natural sense of nationalism or pride that prevents stories de-evoling into identity politics?
The Antifa Left vs Right and Woke stuff it is not helping US sales. It has turned kids and adults away from entertainment products, they use messages of Diversity to Justify Funding a Potentially Doomed tv show, SJW multi-cultural casting is used to support a Dying Franchise?

When I've visited the homes of people who watch that cartoon, it came across like that Japanese map of the world with all the childish stereotypes about other countries/cultures. I get it, it's a cartoon, it's harmless with no ill intent, just like many of the ones I grew up with in the 80's with similar stereotypes, just found it pretty silly to still see that kind of stuff still around. The only reason I point this out is the woke people aren't likely to take kindly to it though maybe it gets a pass because it wasn't created by evil white people, just those friendly and cute Japanese who have never had any imperialist or racist tendencies. :lol:

I wonder if manga will ever really get big, I mean Real Big and TIMELESS crossing the ages as an epic, Japanese anime toons. I'm talking about timless film and literature, comic sales the true numbers over time. The toons and books would they ever get into timeless Broadcast Syndication, truly outsell the big guns like The Bible??
Selling more than Avatar, Toy Story, Star Wars or the Avengers...or any big religion epic tale 'The Ten Commandments'.
Outsell stuff like Harry Potter, Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, And Then There Were None Ten Little Niggers by Agatha Christie, Lolita wrote by a Russian Jew Bolsevik writer Vladimir Nabokov, Mao's Little Red Communist book, the jewish book Torah the book of the babylonia rabbi the talmud, Utah's inbred secret 'The Book of Mormon' or that shit terrorist jihad book the Quran or Koran?

and other timeless best sellers, guys who sell many copies of their book say from other publishers ... from the Veiled Jester and Moose Shrine Lodge
stories of Marxism, stories of Fascist Imperialism, stories from the Stone cut guys
Image


No Longer Human was a big seller but its so old its now and in public domain, nobody wants to read it
I guess 'Akira' as a classic toon movie is well known around the word and some people once heard of Totto-Chan, Norwegian Wood or some Western version of Japan like the Tarintino Harvey Weinstein 'Kill Bill' or the Shogun TV Mini Series. I think the strength of anime and other Japanese products today is more a sign of the weakness of US Western media entertainment, the politcis putting people off and making the product weaker. Maybe kids during the lockdown want to read some different or exotic and foreign or maybe they are entertained by the culture, the mecha machines, the samurai, the fights and Japanese drama.
I don't know if Japan or Japan culture will truly sell big again, and when I say big I mean truly Big and massive, like selling across the ages.

Japan sells well in world media today but I think its mostly because Western US products have become so shit,
Hollywood was already out of ideas befoere the virus hit, its just remake after remake now and also this Covid thing. The Corona is another reason why comics and studios close, why Hollywood is dying.

So I'm looking at Hollywood ... a few cinemas in Argentina and Sweden, NZ and China are open and whatever survived the Hollyweird Corona Apocalype, the post Covid collpase

There are some indie Canada, Euro, Aus and Asian films
The big sellers this year Ni Hao, Li Huan Ying, the Mortal Kombat video game thing, there is Godzilla vs. DonkeyKong, an indie horro movie franchise filmed near NewYork A Quiet Place Part II, Tang Ren Jie Tan An

Hollyweird its all remakes of reimagining remakes of rehash and retcon re-boots?

‘The Rocketeer’ Reboot, more Canady Man, Home Sweet Home Alone Movie, more Resident Evil, an American Werewolf in London AGAIN, the Dune thing,
Escape from New York...here's an idea!maybe they can just take it to the sands of NewMexico and do an Escape from Kabul?
even more dirty dirtier Dirty Dancing and more TopGuns.
they also seem to have some kind of mandatory diversity casting thing going on with cast now being black, white, yellow, brown, muslim, transexual, alt rightsim, neo liberal regressive leftism...and whatever political casting agenda that satisfy the Hollywood politik?






yup we can look forward to Rocketeer’ Reboots

but the difference this time.... perhaps played by a Gay Black Muslim Transexual?

https://areomagazine.com/2021/09/03/bea ... an-comics/
These days, manga is better positioned than American comics are to explore political issues, not only because Japanese political stances don’t neatly align with the western categories of left and right wing—and not only because of the wide variety of political stances that manga creators tend to take—but also because manga creators are not generally penalized for exploring those issues in fiction, or refusing to do so.

I won't even pretend to understand the current situation. Leaning too far into wokeness is making some of the recent stuff hard to watch. In the words of one of my trans friends "inclusiveness is nice but stop the hyperfocus and putting us on pedestals." Seems like anything good gets some sort of call for cancellation when anyone on the cast is found to have said anything offensive, even if decades ago. Then you have the taxes and all the expensive fun stuff that comes with Hollywood that has pushed filming locations to pretty much anywhere but California. Hollywood feels like Freemont street in Las Vegas...it's where it all started but it's now regulated to past nostalgia and really cheesy attempts to lure people to remain relevant while all the real action is on the strip.

"Toss A Coin To Your Witcher" a time when the future of US Television was still exciting



let's look at some of the recent Flops, Turkeys and box-office bombs

The Matrix Resurrections §- Neo forgets all his powers his girlfriend Trinity / Tiffany saves Neo and she flies away like Superman or Supergirl or is it super-Transexual Wachowski now?
Avatar 2 makes money but crappy story and possibly flops due to a ridiculous budget
nu Wonder Woman remake another flop
Dark Phoenix a bad Xmen movie, maybe the whole comicbook Marvel thing is overdone like Westerns?
SpaceJam 2 - LeBron James shit actor, controversial, hated by many while Michael Jordan had the ability to sell a wacky Bugs Bunny Space Basketball movie to the world
Amsterdam 2022. Some degenerates go to Amsterdam in WW1 get obsessed with Hitler return to New York City in a bad comedy?
Neo Buzz Lightyear remake
Disney's 'Strange World' explore new worlds with tentacle monsters, pushes gays Lesbo LGBTQ stuff to kids
Amazon Lordy o Dat Rangz...turning a franchise into some Feminist rapper thing
West Side Story a bad remake of a classic musical

Hollywood could make money like the 'Top Gun' remake

but in the end everything trying to virtue signal with gay feminist diversity or push super beyond 'Woke' politik will turn every franchise to shit?

'Barbie' and 'Oppenheimer' turned out to be huge hits, a lot of people missed these in predictons

most of the rest of the movie industry failed

Hollywood even admitted defeat to Japan? Godzilla Minus One became the first Japanese and non-English language film to win the Best Visual Effects category. Director Hayao Miyazaki, at the age of 83, became the oldest director to win Best Animated Feature for The Boy and the Heron.

South Korean tv shows selling better than ever streaming all over the world, the USA is finally reading subtitles. They also go to Communist China for material '3 Body Problem'

Dune part 2 is helping Hollywood stay in the Top 10 world wide, however there are a lot of foreign films making money that Hollywood is not makings and I mean A LOT Demon Slayer, YOLO, Pegasus 2, Article 20, Boonie Bears:Time Twist, The Pig the Snake and the Pigeon, Exhuma and even the sanctions Ruskies make money 'Kholop 2' or Serf 2, also known as Son of a Rich 2 is a 2023 Russian comedy film


Hollywood can still make a spectacle

Civil War looks ok but maybe not the best year to release such a film




5 years after Covid-19 an industry looking for some success and still trips and stumbles
Another cast as the titular character in Snow White, a live-action adaptation the 1937 animated Disney film, scheduled to be released in 2022 no 2023...maybe 2024...no they now say March 2025?
from Warner Bros DC there was 'Batgirl' an unreleased American superhero film which was so bad and possibly damaging to the studio they refuse to ever let it be seen by anyone. After the film was shelved, the Moroccan-Belgian moslem potheads the gangster jihadi islamic directors Bilall Fallah and Adil El Arbi unsuccessfully attempted to obtain some of its footage.

"It has to do with output," he began, adding that the months-long writers' and actors' strikes affected the 2024 release schedule, ergo fewer films hitting cinemas and less money coming in via ticket sales.

"This is going to be the year Hollywood recalibrates as both the impact of the pandemic and strikes starts to settle down."

Last year was also a bit of a shocker for the box office because the usual Hollywood behemoths such as Marvel and its parent company Disney underperformed, at least by their standards. In fact, Marvel recorded its worst opening weekends on record with The Marvels and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania and for the first time since 2015, Disney was not the highest-earning studio in the world. It also missed out on having a movie in the top three, which was something that had not happened to the Mouse House since 2011.

The downturn in what was once a guaranteed blockbuster could be a result of the fact that audiences are fatigued with the familiar content studios are producing year in and year out. It's all well and good to argue that studios need to get more creative, but the movies coming out this year would have been planned years in advance and the Hollywood strikes made it impossible for the studios to respond flexibly to audiences' changing tastes.


art imitating life imitating art?

in culture the Left vs Right divide is worse than ever, the Leftwing BLM Antifa type burn cities, the Rightwing QAnon storm the buildings.

Tucker once a Leftwing tv talking head and a critic of little Bush changed to Conservative Fox for a while got kicked out and then became an apologist for Russian Orthodoxy, he now goes to interview propagandists like Dugin. In news media Dugin's influence on Russian policy and Vladimir Putin is disputed, no official ties to the Kremlin, writes and talks a lot, but is often referred to in the media as "Putin's brain", and as being responsible for shaping Russian foreign policy, an apologist for war and deaths, supports the imperial Russian invasion of Ukraine. Aleksandr Dugin does seem at times to have a thinking brain a somewhat clever mind but reports on his background are mixed, he may been into the occult or he may have done science of aviation, we do know he is somewhat of a linguist able speak Italian, German, French, English, and Spanish. Aleksandr Dugin writes a lot on Geopolitics another guy Mark Galeotti, writing for The Spectator, argued that Western commentators tend to overstate the importance of Dugin in Russian politics, sometimes even describing him as a new Rasputin.

In 2025 DC Warner Bros will release another superhero thing, Marvel Disney has The Fantastic Four 2025 throwing more time, cash and energy at a franchise which never made money...a British writer Kazuo Ishiguro, wrote a dystopian science fiction story, Sony's 3000 Pictures acquired the screen rights to the novel.
Five Nights at Freddy's 2 is coming in 2025...but had to work for success fighting wrong think mob and cancel culture?...movie critics and weirdo stalker online transsexuals hate it because some guy Scott Cawthon who made video games said something about Christianity or something positive about Trump? he claimed that he had been doxed and had received threats of violence and home invasion.

Steve Bannon was held in contempt of Congress in October 2021 after he refused to comply with a subpoena.

Culturally 'The West' is dying

One Piece a live action tv Out Sold Everything Last Year

and now 'One Piece Day'
https://onepiece-day.com/en





An Entertainment industry out of ideas, starting to sue itself with lawsuits and with what little money they have left in Commiefornia these days they are running around sometimes arriving by airplane in Japan trying to buy up random Nintendo, Sega, Playstation video game properties
but its been crazy for a while, GeorgeLucas at one time claimed he invented 'scifi' and Battlestar Galactic Was Sued By Star Wars. From the era of comicbook and superhero the Crazy maybe classed as rightwing Frank Miller and crazy 'Leftwing' Alan Moore abandoned by the industry, Alan Moore: 'League of Extraordinary Gentlemen' show is 'dustbin' hunting"
Today it seems some movies do make cash, the movie Barbie, Oppenheimer, Spiderman No Way Home and a TopGun movie remade money but every is flopping... West Side story flop, New Antman flop, The Flash another flop or box office bomb Haunted Mansion flop another box office turkey, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Black Adam, The Marvels, The 355, Amsterdam, Blue Beatles, Lightyear, Moonfall, The Last Duel, The Matrix Feminist Transexual Resurrections.

if an independent idea for a movie comes out, a movie which does not have SJW politics the weird tinseltown industry will do its best to kill the movie or show

‘The Sandman’ Creator Neil Gaiman Accused Of Sexual Misconduct, Denies Allegations As New Zealand Police Continue To Investigate

An industry of insanity and lawsuits with little creativity?
Gaiman, he was a lockdown nutjob screaming for more lockdowns but in May 2020, Gaiman travelled from New Zealand to his holiday home on the Isle of Skye, breaking the lockdown rules. Ross, Skye and Lochaber MP Ian Blackford described his behaviour as unacceptable and dangerous. Gaiman published an apology on his website, saying he had endangered the local community. https://www.theguardian.com/books/2020/ ... ew-zealand Gaiman was somewhat 'married' to Amanda Palmer, with whom he had an open marriage. Gaiman likes to attack with Lawsuits and has sued Todd McFarlane because of some Spawn story, he manages to own Medieval Spawn a character he did not invent instead he put a Medieval costume on Spawn and claimed it as his own creation with the help of crazed Lawyers and insane perverted Judges. McFarlane lost judgments in two lawsuits in the 2000s, the first was a 2002 suit in which McFarlane contested with writer and creepy pervert Neil-Gay-Gaiman
The final cash payout? Bleeding Cool later confirmed that Marvel Comics had completely bought the rights to Angela from Gaiman
