    Well I guess we know what Disney is going to do now to get it released in China.

    According to Wikipedia:

    Black Panther opened in China ($66.5 million) with the fourth-highest MCU and superhero opening ever in the country. This included the biggest opening day and opening weekend ($7.3 million) of March for IMAX in China.

    That alternate poster being blamed on China is extremely frustrating myth, because you can literally find both Chinese versions of the other posters and other-language posters of the one that minimized Boyega with a simple google search.

    I'm also pretty sure China didn't edit out the scene of the two women kissing that everyone just preemptively assumed would get edited out by them. Saudi Arabia did, though.

      The funniest thing is that alternative poster for black panther was only used in Hong Kong but saying that Hong Kong is full of racists doesn’t fit “muh evil CCP” narrative as well

      Honestly I thought LGBT scenes being removed has more to do with conservative audiences than governments, cuz a lot of people here in Indonesia complain about LGBT characters in Disney movies simply existing (not even a kiss scene).
