Did Kungfu Panda simply use a Chinese symbol, or more or less abuse it?
Other than artist Zhao Bandi, who has turned the animal into a prop(道具) , most in China seem to hold the view that the Dreamworks cartoon is respectful of Chinese culture. I happen to agree with the majority.
Kungfu Panda is not a typical case of East meets West. It is a successful fusion of the obvious. The filmmakers have no doubt studied many classic kungfu movies. The fight with chopsticks is a clever use of popular scenes in Hong Kong movies. It is well designed, but not very original.
In terms of genre, Kungfu Panda is at once a tribute (敬意) and a spoof (模仿) . It milks jokes from the familiar, but displays kungfu "awesomeness" , to borrow a word from the movie, to those who have only heard of this important part of Chinese popular culture.
It gives Chinese symbols an endearing quality, something Chinese movies do not achieve because they reach only limited audiences in the West.
However, there is a lot that Chinese filmmakers can learn from this East-West combination. Even if you work within a well-established framework, you can still let your imagination run free. A Chinese film story is not likely to designate a duck as a panda’s father. People would laugh it off as crazy.
But, in the logic of cartoons, there is nothing wrong with this. Besides, the interaction between duck father and panda son is much funnier than with an older and a younger panda.
The theme is more Hollywood than Confucius. While both Chinese and American stories feature good-vs-evil battles, the Chinese emphasize loyalty and conformity while the West values individuality and self-achievement.
Of course, clumsy panda learning kungfu can be interpreted in two ways: You could see Panda Po’s victory as a confirmation of the saying, " Believe in yourself" , or you can see it as a triumph of hard-work ethic.
The charm of Kungfu Panda does not lie in its plot or its theme, but in its details. There are plenty of surprises that make it a joyful ride. When you look at Chinese movies, many have decent plots but just no details.
Where does the charm of Kungfu Panda lie?
选项
A、its plot

C、its details
