How does censorship impede the production and distribution of animated movies more than live action???
Can someone explain it like I am an anglo to me?
It doesn’t they just needed to add a qualifier of some kind so that it didn’t look like they were praising China or Chinese filmmakers
The Economist is probably just upset that the IP of its owners’ capitalist drinking buddies isn’t as lucrative in China as it is in the west.
they’re reminding you china is a totalitarian country with censors which affects the creation of movies and what movies people are allowed to enjoy. on the subject of chinese animated films I would like to see them move further away from japanese style animation and return more to the stuff they had in the 60s like havoc in heaven. its time for china’s media industry to stand on its own two feet
The japanese anime style was based on walt disney cartoons, but then evolved into separate versions. Its sensible to use what works, then expand upon it.
havoc in heaven
I’m guessing you’re referring to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a88hCqFbNLk ?
I meant the original one but the art style is pretty much the same in this one so basically, yeah. only difference is the sound is much worse IMO and the colour more modern
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

(over 1k artists in the UK have been banned from making drill music, 5% of that 1k have had a prior criminal record)

As usual, projection.
China’s animated movies are booking, but at what cost?
