Also note that Audis (and BMWs) in China are actually Chinese-made. Chinese-made cars meanwhile are.......Australian-made. laugh2.gif

where do you get your facts

the only cars made in Australia are GM's Holden, Ford's Falcon,
and Toyota"s Camry
Mitsubishi/Crysler closed their factory, every thing else is imported even some Holdens made by Chevrolet in the USA

You're a funny guy, considering I lived not two minute's drive from where the Toyota Aurion was made. Please, tell us more about my country's car production, I obviously have no idea what I'm talking about but you seem to be a veritable fountain of knowledge.

sorry but i was just pointing out that most cars that are sold in Australia are imported, even that great Australian icon Holden Commodore, some are made in the US by Chevrolet and imported into Australia. As for Australians making Chinese cars .... well,some Australian manufacturers have their goods made in China

and as far as I know only Toyota, General Motors and Ford make cars in Australia. And most small cars are imported.

Anyway what cars are or are not made in Australia has nothing to do with the topic t hand

I would personally think they chinese hate ID, because their "live" version as they so call it was received terribly and a disgrace to the show. (Not exactly sure how everybody viewed the movie...but I certainly despised it..)

Aside from a scene where the speedometer is treated like a tach the movie was fine. You just have to treat it differently from the Anime is all. I mean heck, I liked it enough to buy it, so. awesome.gif

Initial D is not hated in China. I don't know who started that rumor. It is just not as widely known as other titles like Naruto or FMA. The people who know about Initial D loves it. wink2.gif

Ask yourselves, would you have any interest in the anime after watching that movie?

I would, in fact I did saw the live action first before hunting for the anime and manga.

Well, it's just me. I know for a fact that film adoptations of novels/games/anime does not represent it 100%, I did wanted to see if the anime is shitty just like the live action. But up until now, it amazes me.

I hope that's the case. If not, I feel that somebody is gonna have to take a trip to Beijing and school some Chinamen on the down hill!

Maybe the demographics of the pool has something to do with it. Who knows? The site might hold a virulent anti-Initial D bias.

Exactly, the demographics are probably extremely biased...
You take a single poll from some random forum full of Chinese male otakus who probably don't even care about Initial D, then you round-up the top ten least mentioned anime and blow it out of proportion calling them "Most hated"...this is all just theory, but if you want a demographics of China, good luck with that. There are places in China where people can't even afford the electricity to watch TV let alone the money to buy TV to even watch Initial D.

Statistics and polls like these need to be exposed of their flaws so we don't follow misconceptions and wrong assumptions

(Slams table) *TAKE THAT*

Although it's safe to say at least 40% of statistics are bullshit to begin with.

A point you do make, taking news out of context and relating it to this is a little. I dunno. Counterproductive, in furthering your opinion rationally. Or something. I dunno.

Sandwiches!
Everyone enjoys those.
Or not.
