OK, this must be at least my third post on this stupid "controversy" about the movie, so consider this the last one. But I can’t let this sentence on the Time China blog go without comment:

Before the American movie "Kung Fu Panda" debuted in China, it seemed destined to set off controversy that foreign filmmakers were appropriating Chinese tradition for profit.

A cute movie about a panda learning kung fu was "destined" to cause controversy? Huh? If that statement is true, society is really more *@)$ed up that I imagined.

That is all.
