roddy Posted January 10, 2018 at 04:04 PM Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 at 04:04 PM Anyone watched anything by Liu Jian (刘健)? Seems to be two full-length pieces 刺痛我 (Piercing I) and one called either 好极了 or 大世界 (Have A Nice Day in English). I've not sat down and watched a full one but taken in a few clips and they look to be intriguing dark underworld / crime animations. Check out the trailer for Have A Nice Day and the earlier Piercing I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelley Posted January 10, 2018 at 04:45 PM Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 at 04:45 PM I like the style of animation but not the content, it is not my sort of thing. I am sure though it will appeal to people. The language was good, easy to understand and with subtitles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelina Posted January 10, 2018 at 06:12 PM Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 at 06:12 PM I am more into old school animation, especially 张光宇, he should be more famous abroad. Very subversive FamilyMart 全家 is doing something right now, they have these figurines. Here is the link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
陳德聰 Posted January 11, 2018 at 08:15 AM Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 at 08:15 AM Interesting! I find I am in quite the opposite boat to Shelley, as I find I am very distracted by how much I dislike the animation style but the content appeals to me haha. Go figure. I will have to make time to watch them soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
