Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios executives must be having a particularly joyous holiday, as their latest Spider-Man film, Spider-Man: No Way Home, has managed to earn over $1 billion at the global box office.

Ahh, I see. I usually just check boxofficemojo for the numbers. I didn’t bother to check what about this movie the CCP might want to block this movie for, but I’m sure it’s for something stupid. Hell they already scrubbed Hong Kong media for anything they didn’t like and just took down a statue commemorating those that died in Tiananmen Square. Sry, got off topic there.
