Give me ONE example of a country, except USA, who can rank almost 50 % of local movies in the top 100.
Imperialist countries invaded other countries with a sword, americans did it with their movies, hamburgers and fake culture.
They had some great success with that and Roman mpire had spread his culture too. But who can tell me seriously that we will remember American cultural achievements as long as Romans one ?!?
To be short, what american cultural stuffs will stay in the collective memory in 2000 years ?
Britney's hits ?
Where are the american Victor Hugo, Pascal, Descartes or Verlaine ? The Manet, Jericho or Bizet ?
Dos Pasos"Manhattan transfer" for exemple is perfectly unknown in today's USA, so...
Their jazzmen (the american best products) are all looking for tips in Europe.
So, what will stay in the future ?
