Red Dawn

The film has been finished for quite some time. They actually filmed it with China as the villains. Cooler heads prevailed and in post production they digitally changed everything to make it North Korean to the tune of more millions of dollars.

In March 2011, the Los Angeles Times reported that MGM changed the villains in its Red Dawn remake from Chinese to North Korean in order to maintain access to China's lucrative box office. The changes reportedly cost less than $1 million and involve changing an opening sequence summarizing the story's fictional backdrop, re-editing two scenes and using digital technology to transform many Chinese symbols to Korean. The film's producer Trip Vinson stated, "We were initially very reluctant to make any changes, but after careful consideration we constructed a way to make a scarier, smarter and more dangerous Red Dawn that we believe improves the movie".

Did you pay for another film? I weep.
