theatlantic: China Censors ‘Men in Black 3’ for Referring to Chinese Censorship A few weeks ago we were thinking about Chinese censorship of American movies, wondering if the practice will increase as China’s movie market opens up, and now today we hear word of the latest example of government meddling. The Chinese censors have gotten to Men in Black 3, a big hit in the movie-mad nation, possibly because they were concerned about perceived references to… censorship. Read more at The Atlantic Wire. [Image: Sony] I watched the Chinese bootleg over the weekend and saw no mention of Chinese censorship. Actually, I don’t remember seeing much of Tommy Lee Jones in the movie at all.
