FBA: Apple seeks bite of Asian content market
Asian film content is at the moment limited. For example, only one Asian movie — the hit romantic comedy Love Is Not Blind from China — is available on the Taiwan store. It features optional English subtitles, but no Chinese subtitles.

Hollywood titles dominated Mainland China's boxoffice chart for ten straight weeks, in each week the Hollywood blockbusters accounted for more than 70% of the weekly grosses. But the situation finally shifted this past week thanks to the strong performances of newly released domestic titles.



Huang Xiaoming and Fan Bingbing attended the record of song "Best Wishes from Beijing" on Thursday. The song shows the best wishes to London Olympic Games from Beijing.

In May, 80 fans streamed into a live music venue on the outskirts of Beijing to see their idol Jane Zhang. The small room was packed, and the 27-year-old singer made two wardrobe changes and sang 15 songs. The recording of that session, Listen to Jane Z Live, has now been released.


Jane Zhang also sings the theme song in "Painted Skin 2" as she did in the first film

FBA: Painted Skin: The Resurrection review
Slick fantasy vehicle for three Mainland stars is in a different league to the 2008 film.
THR: Painted Skin: The Resurrection review
Bottom line: Spectacular if blemished Chinese fantasy aiming for high lyricism should pull in female viewers and fans of the 2008 original.

Slim but likeable second feature by the director of Pinoy Sunday.
Light, cross-cultural rom-com has few of the usual cliches and awkwardnesses. 
Double Trouble seems less about honestly dissimilar and abrasive characters, and more about contrived friction.
