Well, it's a twofer - Hollyweird and Hollywoke, both wrapped into one film.

China is a huge market. Hollywood knows and appreciates that. In Hollywood it is always about the bucks. It wants to produce films that can be shown there. Barbie accomplishes that objective. It does not matter that Viet Nam and The Philippines are unhappy. They are much smaller markets.

At least I own some Warner Bros. stock so may benefit a little financially.
