Yeah, sad isn’t it?
Hollywood puts foreign receipts over domestic box-office now.
The reboot of Superman had the same “Truth, justice, and ‘that other stuff’” line. Captain America was sold as The First Avenger in foreign markets.
Anti-Americanism is big (Michael Moore’s foreign editions of dvds and books were largely “red white and blue” covered) and Hollywood helped elect our first anti-American president. He won his Grammy in 2006. The fix was long in.
