1 Anti-American? Liberals will swoon over this one.

2 Im chinese. came to america 17 years ago. this is DISGRACE!!! FCUK THE COMMUNIST NATIONS ESPECIALLY CHINA...

and screw ang lee

3 ha ha ha

What lousy photography! Great shots of incredible smog - must be a city there somewhere.

Oh - the very small bit about "communist revolution flowing .... " that's actually a required anemic throw-in to meet some obscure govt reg ... kinda like the "just say no to drugs" campaign years past.

Its nothing more than a rather amaturish economic booster type promo - what its doing at Sundance is beyond me!

4 Let me extend a belated "welcome to America" Billy.

5 ha ha CHINKS...

6 Billy:
What is your site: http://www.xanga.com/ansar_al_eisa
referencing "The Defender/Protector" of? I find many references to terrorist organizations with the "Ansar al" in their name (Sunna/Islam/etc) the only reference I can find to Eisa is:
Tell el-Eisa Hill, near El Alamein in Egypt, site of a cemetery for those who died in the battles
I see you said 'Jesus' but do not see any reference to it, could you provide one?

7 The Chinese want to rule the world, but don't seem to be aware that aiming your camera directly at the sun doesn't lend itself to award winning cinematography (unless you compensate with some America-bashing I suppose). I love the image used to illustrate how "China move fast": a tug pushing a barge. I wonder if any of the anti-America crowd will have a problem with the statement: "China surpass America as world bully"? That doesn't sound promising.

8 It reminds me of an episode of one of my favorite TV shows, News Radio. The radio station owner had a book republished into Japanese. Here's a part of a book reading he did on the show...

Mr. James: "The original title of this book was 'Jimmy James, Capitalist Lion Tamer' but I see now that it's... 'Jimmy James, Macho Business Donkey Wrestler'... you know what it is... I had the book translated in to Japanese then back in again into English. Macho Business Donkey Wrestler... well there you go... it's got kind of a ring to it don't it? Anyway, I wanted to read from chapter three... which is the story of my first rise to financial prominence... I had a small house of brokerage on Wall Street... many days no business come to my hut... my hut... but Jimmy has fear? A thousand times no. I never doubted myself for a minute for I knew that my monkey strong bowels were girded with strength like the loins of a dragon ribboned with fat and the opulence of buffalo... dung. ...Glorious sunset of my heart was fading. Soon the super karate monkey death car would park in my space. But Jimmy has fancy plans... and pants to match. The monkey clown horrible karate round and yummy like cute small baby chick would beat the donkey."

Question: "Mr. James, what did you mean when you wrote bad clown making like super American car racers, I would make them sweat, War War?"

Mr. James: "Well, you know... it's LIKE when a clown is making like a car... racer... it's sorta... like... the FCC. The CLOWN... the clown is like the FCC... and I was opposed to the FCC at the time, right? So it was like I was declaring War. WARRRR!"

Question: "So then did the American yum yum clown monkey also represent the FCC?"

Mr. James: "Yeah, it did. Thanks a LOT!"

Question: "What did you mean when you said, "Feel my skills, donkey donkey donkey, donkey donkey?"

Mr. James: *Sigh*

9 This video reminds me how I must learn to buy American. Is it just me or do the Chinese seem like the Borg. Also those cities look like real shitholes - Ha Ha China - no thanks.

10 Lauel:
The problem is of course, people do not want to pay the price it costs for American labor, to build a product. They like the cheap product, that was built with cheap labor. Like my friend who talks about Mexican's stealing jobs in the U.S, but doesn't want to pay the $50.00 for an American company to maintain his lawn, he pays a team of Mexicans $20.00 to cut it.
The only way to encourage a strong American workforce, is to forgo tempting cheap foreign products, and pay the going price for American made products.

11 Panama Still using 80 year old american equipment to run canal. Panamanian guy using equipment said, "Built Right". NPR this AM. I'm afraid that even a lot things that are still made here just are not made to last like they should be.

12 I agree with DaveC. Nearly everything is made in Asia now, with China the most prominent producer. It is a situation created by penny-pinching westerners and I'm as guilty as the next person. As for quality, it has long gone...unless you are loaded.

13 Screw China! In the 80's Japan was going to take over the World. Now China! I don't think so, the VAST majority(80%) of the people in China live in extreme poverty. They have a long way to go just to raise the standard of living in China to acceptable levels even for China.

14 Joe:
Indeed, I think China will eventually befall the fate of Russia. It stands to reason you can only keep your population suppressed, poor and ignorant while they have nothing to compare it too, this is why globalization of information via Television, and the Internet are a threat to China, they promise something better.

15 Did anyone catch the special on CNN re: Energy?
They cited that one in seventy people in China have a car and they're already number two behind the U.S in oil needs?

If anyone wants to see some real "War for oil" get ready for when one in twenty Chinese households has access to a car.

16 By the time the Chinese actually become a global business power, they will have Westernized to the point of no return, because business is always more profitable than war, and nobody does business like us. Besides, according to some statistics which I'm too lazy to look up, I believe there are more Christians than Communist party members in China now, so the threat will likely never truly emerge.

Footnote: I've had two plates of spaghetti with Italian sausage, and two glasses of wine, so maybe I'm making sense, and maybe I'm not.

17 hey davec

the Islamic word for Jesus is "Isa" >> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isa However some people spell it Eisa. The Christian way of saying Jesus is "Yesu"

but i used Eisa to make a point which you probably read on my xanga...anyways. Either way Eisa = Jesus

here is a forum where his name is spelled with "E" just google it "Eisa Jesus" you will find many

anyways take care!...

...and death to China, and death to Hu Jintao.

read epochtimes to get to know the real China.

I disagree with the religious views and spiritual ideals of the Falun Gong, but i think they get the idea politically.

i espeically love that simpsons episode on China

HAHAHHA see pic and plot outline

18 I think you're making sense, IM, but I liberally doused my vegetable soup with Texas Champagne(that's D.L. Jardine's hot sauce to you uninitiated), and my whole head is on fire. So maybe not.

19 http://www.f*xnews.com/story/0,2933,188364,00.html

why dont you hear Amnesty Internation and A.N.S.W.E.R and the A.C.L.U out rage over this? THIS SHOULD be front page and top news

20 If China is so strong, why can't they take a little Island they lay claim to. I remember, it is the 100 F16s, and I think the 7th fleet.

Go Navy!

21 Leatherneck:
It could also be that before their weapon dealings with Russia, China was ill-prepared for an invasion of Taiwan.
Analysts used to refer to the invasion of Taiwan by China as "The million man swim" because China did not have the logistical means to get soldiers on the ground, this has all changed since the Russia-China military alliance.

22 I can understand that point of view davec, However, I do not believe anything can make it across that channel while the United States has a strong Navy close by. Maybe I am wrong, but I do not think so.

23 Indeed Leatherneck, China recognizes our power, but this is why they're buying technology that will attempt to defeat it. I read an interesting article on some of the technology they're attempting to acquire, or have acquired:
Chinese dragon awakes

They have been buying missile technology that specifically is used to sink Aircraft carriers, there are only a few militaries in the world that would affect.

24 The SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL isnt that one held by robert RED ford?

25 The film is not the Chinese mocking the US. That's an American film. It was made a leftie US director and writer who is basically a pushing a protectionist message with the use of bad 'Chinglish' (which he wrote). "American film mocks China at Sundance" would be closer to the mark.

26 myrick

More info please. My original take was it was some internal economic promo with lousy translation slipped into the Festival by odd accident.

Your explanation sounds extremely plausible. Sundance has an agenda - so who is being played here and for what purpose.

27 I may be wrong, but I think a lot of people are misreading China's military buildup. To the Chinese, how they are perceived is very important, this is the concept of "face", i.e. "saving face", "losing face", etc.. They know that as long as they cannot project military power, they will never be taken seriously by the US, but I believe that they understand that they cannot win a direct confrontation with us, and such a war would be catastrophic. Of course, the old, bitter, hateful, die-hard Communists probably don't care, but they are a dying minority; the future of China lies with the businessman and woman, not with the soldier, and besides, starting a war with their best customer isn't exactly the brightest idea, because their economy would collapse within weeks of the outset of hostilities.

28 It should become a big hit in SAN FRANCISCO and CUBA and maybe it will get a oscar in next years accademy awards or perhaps a golden globe
