On other news, China has surpassed US as the largest movie market. 75% of the top grossing movies are local Chinese.

I think this is a huge development! China dethroning Hollywood? Wa!

Nope... not yet... it will be a while before that happens.
Why? Who watches Chinese movies other than Chinese? Heck even India, Filipino, Mexican movies/content have a wider viewership (demographic wise) than Chinese.
Speaking from as an African - The only chinese movies we used to watch were martial arts movies! We didn't care much about the characters or the storyline -just the gymnastics. They have produced a few of them recently that we watched like 'The great wall' and 'Forbidden Kingdom' but still -that was their value proposition. Mexican and Filipino soaps have their value proposition. American movies have their value proposition - we now 'get' them. We get their jokes and tropes. We think like them. The british yielded this along time ago - what is left of british content is 'wit'... very clever dialogue.
it will take a long time for us to 'get' chinese enough for us to us consume their content as staple.

I think the world is entering a very interesting period. North Korea is China's Israel. America still think they are the world's super power and policeman but with North Korea and Iran, China will start to flex its geopolitical power. The next few years will be very interesting to watch.

Kim is in a very comfortable place, he has consolidated power at home, he has his weapons and is winning the charm offensive with South Korea. He has the upper hand at this point.

This would be the best time to conduct the test of the Hydrogen bomb over the Pacific.

Trump is a genius. I wish Obama had handled his African brother Gaddafi in a similar manner, instead of destroying libya.

Positive developments despite what one may think of Trump...however its still early.
Obama restarted Cuba/America relations, eliminated Osama....so all should pause before declaring Trump has upended Obama in Foreign Policy

North Korea is NOT a THREAT to the world peace. We should FOCUS on YEMEN, SYRIA and SOUTH SUDAN where humanity is suffering

North Korea sorry Democratic People's Republic of Korea just wants to come out of the shadows. The Swiss schooled guy has started this process. I am wondering how much he is willing to trade for this.

Little rocket man is the winner in this....he has "promised" to denuke just like his dad and grandad in exchange, he's gotten legitimacy(one on one meeting with US President), US has suspended the military exercise with S. Korea(they were not expecting this Pompeo will be heading to SKorea to explain what that means), probable ease of sanctions.
