The movie that made the most
money in the world is one that kicks the ass of an American throughout the
movie. Should we thank Trump that most of the world hates us or should we thank
those old successful Rambo movies where Sylvester Stallone kicks Asians from
Taiwan for hours? I know that payback is
a bitch but does this movie have to be the most successful ever? If you are an
American, you should at least feel a little nauseous.
What does this all say about our
culture? The movie called Star Wars the Force Awakens that is now owned by Walt
Disney Studios was the highest grossing movie in a single market. The Chinese
movie from Taiwan called Wolf Warrior 2 is a Well Go USA Inc. release in
America that toppled the box office take by millions of more dollars and the
movie is all about an American killing innocent civilian Asians. The movie made
an astonishing $850 million dollars worldwide. Recently they released the DVD.
The hero of the movie is a retired Chinese special forces soldier who goes to
Africa to rescue Africans and fellow Chinese citizens from an evil American
called Big Daddy.
The bad American has become the
biggest punching bag in cinematic fictional history. Does the world like to see
a bad American get his ass kicked? Apparently. The actor needs to stay in shape
because he is Frank Grillo and he is 52 years old. He gets paid well to get hit
on screen. Before being the Wolf Warrior he stared in the movie called Captain
America; Civil War released by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures as the
character called Crossbones. Wu Jing who
wrote, directed and starred in the film is now more well known and richer than
Jackie Chan. It took just a month for the movie to make $854 million dollars.
Do people want America’s ass kicked?
Outside China many view the film
as propaganda. Others say the film mixes Jingoism with Hollywood heroism. It is
described as the nationalist action film storming China. What happened to
America’s reputation? We used to be the most well liked nation on the planet.
Now China owns us financially thanks to Bush and now Trump bringing up the deficit into
the trillions of dollars and with Trump’s new tax plan he will put us into Chinese
debt for many, many years. Now we also need to know how hated we are in the
world with the instant success of this kick American ass film.
There is a lot of Chinese flag
waving in the film and at the end of the picture the Chinese hero beats up the
American guy. The last scene in the film has the American about to stab and
kill the Chinese hero and he says in the subtitle translation, “People like you
will always be inferior to people like me.” In the Chinese film in Mandarin the
line says, “In this world there are the weak and the strong. Your race will
always be the weak.” Is this racism? So now the Chinese audience is seeing the
American saying that they will always be inferior to an American and at that
time the Chinese hero overtakes the American and repeatedly and violently stabs
and brutally kills the American and says, “Not anymore!”
This movie started as a simple
propaganda movie but then when it sold the most tickets in worldwide movie
history, the subject matter should be taken more seriously. With the financial
success of this film will we be seeing more movies pop up that clearly shows
Americans as villains? Trump’s recent
policy of throwing the Palestinians out of Jerusalem and recognizing Israel as
the owners of that homeland has forced many Arab states to ban together and no
longer trust America? Trump being the only one to pull out of the Climate
Accord has lost the trust of all of Europe. Trump throwing DACA kids and most
Mexicans out of the country makes South America hate us too. Now America has the
worldwide reputation of being a bad nation. Living in a media world now, even a
fictional movie is becoming a very powerful message to America. Trump, are you
watching and listening how much damage you are causing our wonderful country?
