says the article in r/movies--As I stated many times, the Chinese would never accept an all black movie, especially one that shows blacks to have great technology, even if it is just a comic book fantasy, China and most Far East countries are as racist as they come, they're 50 years behind the progressive US in this matter--Google Chinese Racism against blacks and see for yourself

Two other reasons:
*Black Panther isn’t exactly brilliant.
*China doesn’t have a black population who are flocking to see the film multiple times.

Black Panther has made like $87 million in 8 days. Wonder Woman's final China gross was just over $90 million. Black Panther will probably pass the $100 million mark at some point. That is better than I thought it was going to do.

I think they do.

I wonder if... they will, it'll be a mediocre turd, critics will "affirmative action" its reviews while tripping over themselves and blubbering about how great it is and utterly gushing with white guilt, it'll end up with a 97 on a review aggregator web site made specifically for morons and to distort/misrepresent the overall quality of films to boost their ticket sales which works on a stupid AF public who see "97" on their phones and infer that it's an A+ movie when it's really like a C- at worst or B- at best like every other MCU movie, morons of all ages flock to see it, and everyone everywhere calls you racist if you point any of the above out anywhere to anyone, and it makes a billion dollars? That just might work!!!!1

Holy crap! One can almost see the bitter tears of frustration as you pounded that out on the keyboard. Thank you for that, it was most entertaining! The critical views of the overall quality of a film is reflected in the average rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Although it might be possible for the vast majority of critics to view a film as only marginally good (thus elevating the tomato-meter score to a point where it triggers mass butt-hurt in the comic book community), it rarely happens. The simple fact is that the tomato-meter and average score tend to align with each other. That’s why those “morons” can view a 97% on their phone and be confident that they’re not going to waste their money and accidentally step in a steaming pile of BvS or Justice League. In the case of Black Panther, the fact that audiences gave it an A+ is further evidence that the problem here is you, not the 97% Rotten Tomatoes score. You might be a racist ... you might be a butt-hurt DC fan ... you might have bad taste in movies ... or it might be, all of the above.

Did you miss the post below where I said those were purely hypothetical projections based on the movie proposed by Hauntedknight87? Interesting that YOU made the connection with BP though. Because that makes you a racist. Sorry, kiddo.

Many score in the 90’s, but only one has a 97%. Did you really think that not mentioning Black Panther by name was going to provide you with some sort of plausible deniability when you fled from the contents of your own post? It’s usually better to think things through before you post as opposed to furiously backpedaling after the fact.

The fact that your little incel brain thinks we're actually having the same conversation is amazing. I'm not backpeddling from anything. I stand by what I said: you, sir, are a racist for connecting my hypothetical scenario about a fictional future project to the REIGNING, DEFENDING, UNDISPUTED, UNIVERSAL greatest film of all time. The fact that you think those qualities apply to BP means you've clearly been harboring hate in your heart for months. I've no time for hatemongers like you. Get back to me when you're ready to recognize BP for the incredible achievement that it is. I, for one, am naming my firstborn son T'Challa. What are you doing to prove you're not racist?

What are you doing to prove you're not racist? Well, for starters I try to avoid writing racist butt-hurt rants in the first place ... then I don’t have to spend a lot of time trying to “prove” I didn’t mean it.

I mean, I'm not the one who connected that hypothetical scenario with Black Panther. That was all you. I was talking about the Shang-Chi movie my boy Hauntedknight87 wants to see. Why do you hate Black Panther so much? Or would you hate Shang-Chi on principle too?

I mean, I'm not the one who connected that hypothetical scenario with Black Panther. When the denials outnumber the original post, you’ve failed. Sorry Ace. Do try to keep that butt-hurt in check, otherwise you’ll be complaining about Black Panthers 97% all over this forum. Oh wait, you already have!
