"The blockbuster success of an American animated movie that's set in ancient China, highlights Chinese culture, mythology and architecture and stars a kung fu fighting panda has filmmakers and ordinary Chinese wondering: Why wasn't this hit made . . . in China?"
I find it interesting that I would expect such a piece today to be written using the "cultural appropriation" frame, while this piece was mostly framed with/as/as on "free market's creativity" when it was written in 2008.
