LMAO DREAMWORKS IS TRASH. As an Asian violinist who was excited about seeing this movie before, I just wanna say FUCK YOU. FUCK WHOEVER ALLOWED FOR THIS TO BE IN THE FINAL CUT. Dreamworks finally got the galls to make a movie starring an Asian girl and they decided to put in this Chinese imperialistic agenda against my country!! GREAT //s

For those who didn’t know: that above is the nine-dash line, a controversial and wildly false statement by China, claiming that the Eastern Sea (which belongs to Vietnam alongside other SEAsian countries) was actually their territory according to some obscure history that only they seem to remember - I wonder why. The whole thing an entire mess and a half, but it did die down some time ago. I honestly didn’t expect to see it again, let alone be reminded of it in this seemingly lighthearted family movie of a WESTERN company.

A lot of Vietnamese people are calling to boycott Dreamworks and for this, I completely understand why. They should’ve known better, there’s no excuse to this.

Ugh I was so fucking excited about this movie and now I’m sickened.

Further context: China is trying to claim those waters because they contain lucrative oil deposits and they want to drill in Vietnam’s waters. In enforcing that false territory, they routinely bully fishing boats with fucking warships.

They’ve also bullied the Philippines because the West Philippine Sea contains similar respurces. They have also routinely bullied fishing boats with warships. It’s gotten so bad that Japan has agreed to patrol the waters to make sure China stays in Chinese waters and isn’t going into Southeast Asia.

And remember how China'a been making concentration camps for Muslims? They’ve intentionally removed Mindanao, an island with a predominantly Muslim population, from the maps in the movie.
