You have raised a serious question about the direction of the global film industry. It is true that the international market plays a major role in Hollywood’s success. Tariffs between countries can greatly affect the distribution of films. However, this is an opportunity for Asian films like anime and Korean movies to continue to shine. This competition can bring more creativity and improve the quality of content. As the industry changes, fans have a wider choice—and that is encouraging.
