An edited version of the $1bn grossing Bond film will be distributed so as not to offend China's government
China has a cap on the numbers of foreign films it shows, and refuses to screen those that criticise the country or its government. One theory regarding the delayed distribution of Skyfall was that the authorities wanted to give Chinese language blockbusters Back to 1942 and The Last Supper a better chance at the box office.
Other films which have been amended for Chinese audiences include Mission: Impossible3, Pirates of the Carribean: At World’s End and Men In Black 3.
