Anyone knows where one can get hold of "Ne Zha 2"? Searching the internet is like trying to grab a soap in the bathtub. I'd like to formally award some Gaston LaGaffe points to the site that deemed "Traffic" by Jaques Tati a similar movie, but above that I have nothing. Rumour has it it'll be released on streaming services this fall, and some point to Netflix.
Can someone help an animation lover out?
Hrmpf! I'm already getting Nezha 2 spoilers on tumblr, and I have to wait until I can see the movie via streaming. While I know how to handle spoilers, in this case I was completely caught by surprise. I've rarely seen contemporary Chinese animation spill over to my "Western" media. Congrats to Jiaozi, Chengdu Coco Carton et al; you truly made it!
Chinese animation before the Cultural Revolution was friggin' amazing! This was shown on tv in Sweden in the late 70s/early 80s - I have vague memories of it. It's nothing wrong with the solid block Disneyesque style, but this gave me the ahA! moment that animation could be so much more.

(NB: Super slow pacing)
In a needless competitive discussion on twitter about who's best between Chinese or Japanese animation, someone posted this absolute gem from 1988 Shangai Animation realised by the Chinese illustrator and animator Te Wei using Shan shui painting style.
Posting it here in case anyone need some beauty and poetry.

Me: I wonder if there's any books on Chinese animation?
Book site*: We have one or two. Please pay $60 for a copy.
And that's why I didn't buy any books today.
(*Not the Evil Empire, I might add.)
Ooooh! This is a nice detail! He's following the fight, and the fighters reflects in his eyes. And it's delivered _without eye contact_. A+!

The bad guy (a normal, full sized celestial) having a run-in with Audrey II's family.
Oh. I didn't realise it's an animated series. Starts with a bang* too. This reminds me I've planned to look closer on Chinese animation - I'm convinced there's more than this style!
(*And for my friends with their minds in the gutter; I mean "bang" as in "explosion".)
Even with my enthusiasm for broadening one's knowledge I realise that watching 'Princess Iron Fan" with a migraine might be a bad idea.

Here we have an unknown, yet extremely powerful, immortal who saves a boatload of Siliang immortals from a Horrible Seabeast - and the Siliangers' response is to imprison him? I think I know why noone has been allowed to leave that island*.
