Netflix adaptation of sci-fi novel The Three-Body Problem sparks anger in China

Authoritarianism is such a bummer. You can never have nice things without big bro shoving its filthy hands in it. So sad that humans are still doing this as we are entering the age of AI.

Not only anger, but murder https://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/31/business/three-body-probl...

Maybe they'll ban Netflix. oh wait.

On more serious note, only netflix can run it since china will punish companies for any plots that show China in a negative light. You'll never see China as antagonist in a modern movie outside of netlix. They'll go after parent companies as well.

Understandable. Just another best selling book was butchered by USA filmmakers.
