The story of China's film market is getting more and more intense (and, frankly, popcorn-worthy) to observe. The nation knows well that its market is uberinfluential right now — the second-biggest in the world behind the U.S., for now — and that big studios are pretty much at the mercy of their State Administration for Radio, Film and Television to allow their movies, especially those big-budget blockbusters, a chance at those coveted international ticket sales.
China has been getting more strict about what comes in, denying movies entry even when an entire plot switcheroo was orchestrated around it ("World War Z") or for no apparent reason at all, which is the case with "Despicable Me 2."
Per the L.A. Times, Universal confirmed that the Land of Exports won't be importing its minion-filled sequel, though no explanation as to why was given (and the content is hardly objectionable, unless too much...

The animated feature Despicable Me 2 is already considered a global smash hit and has made Universal Pictures a ridiculous amount of money, but today we learn that their overall potential earnings have taken a bit of a hit. The Los Angeles Times is reporting that the Illumination Entertainment film has been denied a theatrical release in China - a market that has grown exponentially in importance over the last few years. While the reasons behind the decision are unclear, the ruling being made by China.s State Administration for Radio, Film and Television (Sarft), there is some suggestion that the reason may simply be that the country is trying to limit the number of American animated films that are released. Pointing to a case earlier this year when DreamWorks Animation's The Croods was pulled from Chinese theaters two weeks earlier than anticipated, producer and film consultant Robert Cain told...

Following China's ban on foreign films, Painted Skin 2 has become the country's highest grossing local film of all time, while also departing from tradition
Even The Dark Knight Rises isn't dark enough to slip through a Chinese blackout. Christopher Nolan's big finale recently got the thumbs up from the Beijing censors – but the ban on foreign films that started on 25 June means it has to wait its turn for a cinema slot. But what's bad news for angsty Gotham billionaires is happy days for human heart-quaffing fox demons; part of the reason why the Chinese government periodically imposes these restrictions. Supernatural romance sequel Painted Skin 2: The Resurrection, released three days after the ban, became the first local film in nearly six months to sit on the No 1 spot.
It did a bit more than that, in fact. Not only was it China's third highest opening weekend ever (300m yuan/$47m,...

China has increased the number of Hollywood imports allowed into the country, but more competition could help free up its homegrown industry
If you judge by headlines, it's been the greatest few weeks for east-west cultural relations since Kurt Russell scoffed chow mein in Big Trouble in Little China. The snappily named Harvest Seven Stars Media Private Equity Fund and the China Mainstream Media National Film Capital Hollywood Group have both been busy strutting around Los Angeles, flashing big cash at film-makers. Dreamworks Animation announced a Chinese division. NBA basketball star Yao Ming was rumoured to be getting the showbiz itch. But all this was the gift-proffering and lute-strumming before the main event in mid-February, the visit to America of Chinese heir apparent and Saving Private Ryan fan Xi Jinping, who finally gave Hollywood what it had been wanting all this time: a relaxation of the "great wall" film quota...

"The Flowers of War" will begin a North American rollout tomorrow in New York, but the most expensive production in China's history showed signs of wilting in its home-country debut. Last week, the Zhang Yimou drama starring Christian Bale received the encouragement of a Golden Globe nomination for best foreign language film. (It's also China's official entry for Oscar consideration.) And with the film's release in China last weekend, it topped the box office at $23.9 million. That's great -- except with its $91 million budget, even that debut could fall short. Per Chinese film business analyst Robert Cain: "Flowers of War" needs to do "Avatar"-sized numbers (that film cumed $208 million in China in 2009-10) to have a profitable theatrical run, but it failed even to exceed the opening of the $1.4 million budgeted "Love is Not Blind," which took in $28.5 million in its opening week back in early November. ...
