From the Paper:
"Although Japan is the world's second biggest movie market, analysts in film and business claim that the country's film industry is dying or dead. In the early 1960s, nearly two-thirds of the films that were popular in Japan were made in that country, while today the same percentage of films that are showing in Japan are made overseas. [1] Critics claim that the industry is not commercial enough to appeal to a broader range of viewers outside of Japan. Critics also claim that television and video games have ruined the Japanese love for their cinema, whose history is more than a century old."Cite this Research Paper:
