Unbelievably, such a cartoon, second only to the average, full of various labels, actually won the 2021 Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature Film? Incredible! Breathtaking! So in the end, the winner was "the big man in the 矬子". Looking at these nominations, the "low-childhood" is also globalizing. The times are advancing, and Oscar's aesthetics of China is still standing still. In contrast, Chinese appeared in Chang'e's lyrics in this film, but none of them were in Chinese. This image of Chang'e must have referenced the image of the princess in the opera "Turandot", but this is the 21st century, and it is still referring to the classic stereotypes of the past. The impression is really bad, don’t you really know what it means to keep up with the times? ("Turandot" is really not one of the most famous and boring plays in the opera world). What is puzzling about this film is that he thinks that his perspective is an international perspective but is still based on the North American market. From time to time, he reveals a superior perspective, looking at the entire Chinese and even Asian culture. It seems that it is the aesthetic standard of the North American producer, because it can sell for money, similar to the animation produced by Disney, the animation song will always be more memorable than the plot. The French version of Disney is always better than the original English version. "Little Door God", "Nezha" and "White Snake" are really better than this! Whether you understand Chinese culture or Asian culture, you can understand it. If your brain cells are not enough, you can’t understand it. It’s not necessary to make people understand the “transformation” to be understandable. If you don’t understand, you will have the motivation to learn and understand.
I know a teacher whose son works in Netfix. His Asian American background made him the producer of this animation. Anyway, all those who should be complaining about it were spit out, and finally said to the teacher, "Let's go back and tell your brother, they spent the money in vain."
