Also, when you buy an underground parking spot, make SURE the entrance to the parking garage is several feet ABOVE street level. from the SCMP on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/scmp/videos/10156439874494820/ Edited February 23, 2021 by Randy W (see edit history) Link to comment

I'll post this here, in case anyone's interested in reading more - this seems to say a lot for the Chinese movie-going public How ‘Asura’’s record budget produced an epic box office flop Quote A third of the film’s budget went to special effects and computer-generated imagery in 2,400 scenes throughout the movie’s 141-minute running time. Costumes by an Oscar-winning costume designer cost 30 million yuan, while fees for the cast took up 75 million yuan. “It could not even tell a proper story,” Hu wrote on his Weibo blog site. “The producers just need to knock their heads against the wall” and reflect on what they’ve done, he wrote. “Millions of yuan just got wasted.” The flop by China’s most expensive movie is a reminder that cinema patrons in the US$8.2 billion box office market are rapidly changing their tastes, and that Hollywood stardust may be coming off from multimillion dollar productions and blockbuster epics.
