Is Abby a Christian?

Think Mark thread?
>Korean
Probably.
I'm not very much a fan of magic poof TF. But I think that at the very least they should give Ming a really physical transformation, because seeing her transformation process for turning aggressively into her kaiju panda could be a lot hotter for my opinion.
But maybe some artists will give this kind of art to us.
I wonder if she goes to church haha
>You'll LIVE to see boy bands fade to obscurity and die
jokes on you, mom, backstreet boys are still touring.
oh wow... I know of one freaky bitch who was into Sword and the Stone type transformations. Is that what you want?
>I'll have 9/11
The movie clearly shows the Chinese religion is the one true religion.
yeah but its OK for heathens to exist. Sun Yee can bless their families too.
>4town
>5 members
Reminds me of a band from Poland named "Just 5"
>You'll become more horny than every teenager in this stadium
but hey once she gets 16 (well, actually it's 14 in the laws of 2002-2003, before a reform) her teen horniness won't be a crime.

What the fuck, who even edited this. That word would be "sects".
Also this isn't Buddhism goddamn.
I dont see Sun-Yee blessing filthy capitalist pigs
>Movieguide: Movie reviews for Christians
Lying for Jesus is okay
>I dont see Sun-Yee blessing filthy capitalist pigs
funny because they do solicit donations in return for blessings..
Offerings to gods predates capitalism
Not so much lying as not knowing what the fuck you're talking about.
Actually, I'm surprised this movie hasn't received criticism from followers of Eastern religions, considering that the writers made Sun-Yee and the panda cult up out of whole cloth and are passing it off as "ancient Chinese religion". If anything, it's a parody of those beliefs.
That doesn't make running the temple like a tourist trap any less capitalistic.
oh... well... there are some rumblings online from isolated user reviews with those complaints.
There's also a Walter Chaw review:
filmfreakcentral.net
Where he makes a connection between that temple business and Mei's selling the panda hugs for money.
But there's also this:
>"Chinese cultural representation is highlighted in a manner that feels deeply authentic. Never did I imagine I could watch Chinese ancestor worship, burning joss sticks at family altars just as I've done hundreds of times with my own family, in a mainstream Disney movie."
Chinese people don't really seem to give a shit about religious inaccuracies. Even Disney's Mulan, which purposely had its theme of Buddhism distorted by a Christian writer, didn't get a lot of flack for it.
Do you think it would somehow have been less offensive to have used some existing set of beliefs for the fictional movie involving supernatural abilities?
>If anything, it's a parody of those beliefs.
>"The point isn't to push the bad stuff away, it's to make room for it, live with it."
Another whole cloth thing? I think that's what those fundies are so mad about it.
They go crazy that someone made a basic yin and yang reference
>song lyrics user returns with THAT Joy Division song
>"but but but how can you say there can be room for BAD things?"
It probably helps that they genuinely enjoy sharing their culture and temple. Its not a burden nor a get rich quick scheme to them.
Now that I think about it, it's no surprise that Mei immediately wanted to make money off the panda when she saw the opportunity. Her mom taught her all the tricks on how to capitalize off of her cultural heritage. She raised a shrewd businesswoman.

exactly what Walter Chaw saidbut Walter Chaw was bothered by this movie... for a lot of reasons. He was obviously upset.
And the best Chinese reviewer
youtube.com
She was mad cause she wanted BWC to herself
Does anyone ELSE find it cringe that there is a shine in fucking Canada?
This is weeb as fuck.
>oh...how i wish that I could have a family shrine and be asian and rebellious and a teen girl...
>Does anyone ELSE find it cringe that there is a shine in fucking Canada?
it's based on one in California, smart one.
ahh...
haven't seen that video yet. Have seen others though. I guess I will now.
>oh...how i wish that I could have a family shrine and be asian and rebellious and a teen girl...
also that's literally the writer/director's life... damn. It's weeb to literally be Asian now? Well Domee Shi didn't have a family temple business, as far as I know.
>He was obviously upset
I get him, but Disney movies are never going to have nuanced depictions of cultures. They're going to play into stereotypes cuz its easy and simple
well parts of it was TOO REAL for him... he spent a lot of time talking about how traumatized his own mother made him.
Also he took the trauma Mei got personally.
Also went on a tangent on how he wanted white women to think he was attractive.
>oh...how i wish that I could have a family shrine and be asian and rebellious and a teen girl...
This but unironically.
also some poetry because lyric user is a huge faggot
>Mom I want to visit an ancient Chinese temple!
>We have Chinese temples at home
the movie's obvious wish fufillment of the best kind.
Turns out boy bands will save the day!
And garbage is poetry...
Life's not hard enough for you?
I really don't get Chinese parents moving thousands of miles for a better life but also being so emotionally distant from their kids
funny... I said that I related to Mei not because she sneaks out/lies/screams at her mother.
But because she has to face some difficulties of her own.
Someone in previous thread said
>I pity the coddled who never had real problems.
I dunno, I think I have some problems. Big ones. Not going to spell them out unless anyone insists.
Point is being a relatively grown man (though I feel so inadequate) I might have been one to just dismiss Mei as being spoiled. But I don't.
The World Trade Center, Mom, I'll have the WTC
Is this a Turning Red thread or an Invincible meme template thread?
>Mei as being spoiled
Her parent couldn't even spare $200. They are far from spoiled. Probably low middle class to poverty
It's economic. They weren't just escaping oppression for freedom, they were looking for upward mobility. The isolation that happens from mainstream western culture and focus on family creates a desperate system where your family is all you're going to have. There are no dreams of moving out and making it on your own, that's not an option and it gets drilled into you that you will have no one if you go against the family. So you become a doctor.
>Her parent couldn't even spare $200.
ehh could just be cheapasses...
My parents wouldn't even get cable/dish for my house. I bet they could have afforded it if they wanted. Though there was some bouts of unemployment...
I still had a PS2 and quite a few games. In 2002. I *think* it might have been the $300 cost, but maybe the $200 cost. The price was reduced in May 2002... can't remember when I go the thing.
But no, refusing to spend $200 for a concert ticket does not mean you are in poverty. I suspect you might be a zoomer.
They didn't want her to go and that was lot of money in 2002.
I didn't know this was a reference to Invincible before I clicked on this.
it's still a lot of money... for now.
Inflation adjusted is $320 or so.
Good lord...
The money was the like the third reason the mom didn't want her to go.
They're easily middle class. They own a business and the real estate value of the temple + their house is probably around 1 million if not more.
>real estate value of the temple + their house is probably around 1 million if not more.
now let us not speculate on the value of that real estate in current year... because it would be a lot
>Fudge pops, Mom. I'll still have fudge pops
the rape whistle...why does she wear it?
that's a Tamagotchi
