C:Hello! My lovely audiences! This is Cynthia, welcome to screen age.
Sh: Hello, I am Sarah. Well, do you ofen see cartoons?
C: Yeah, do you remember a classical cartoon—Gourd brothers?
Sh: Certainly, I do. When I was a little child, I liked watching it so much. And I often was criticized by my parents due to watching it before finishing my homework.
C: Haha, you are so cute. I also liked it a lot, and I think it has some reasons so that letting us love it untill today.
Sh: I agree with you. The unique style of characters and scene, antique Chinese flavor. The film is so delicate that every worm is different in shape and with good intentions.
C: Especially, it's the era that Japanese and American animation has not yet invaded, and the animation has not been market-oriented. It's really hard to have such a cartoon.
Sh: That's right. I hope there will be more and more good cartoon like it.
C: So do I. Now, let's talk about some really good animated movies!
Sh: At the mention of domestic films, my favorite one is " Big Fish&Begonia".
S: I've heard that this is the great work of Chinese animation.
Sh: Right! It is said that it had spent 12 years on the production.
S: Yeah, every frame seems to try to restore the most Chinese faction.
Sh: At the beginning of the film, to shape the film, the opening of "A Happy Excursion" is cited. It seems to propaganda that it's the original domestic products.
S: And, a series of ancient architectural decorations, such as lantern, red brick and wooden steps, are also quite Chinese.
Sh: Many Chinese elements are filled with this film. In my opinion, it can be the landmark work of Chinese animation.
S: And, there're many precious emotion in this film. For example, the love, the friendship and the affection. I remember that I have cried when I saw it.
Sh: Wow. You are so sensitive but it is certainly moving. Therefore, would you like to see it again?
S: Sure! I think we can see it together.
L: Well, today our topic is animated movie, and whenever you talk about animation you have to mention Japan, cause you know, Japan is pretty good at making cartoons.
T: That's true. I have seen a lot of Japanese animated movies and I'm looking at them now. I think they're great. What about you? Do you like cartoons?
L: I don't know beans about it, I only seen some classic ones when I was a kid. But that doesn't mean I don't like them. So what's your favorite?
T: Maybe you heard of it, it's Spirited Away which chinese name is千与千寻. This movie was the winner of the 75th Academy Awards for best animated feature.
L: Wow! That's really worth time to have a look! My friend told me about it but I haven't seen it yet. What story did the film tell?
T: It told a story about humans and monsters. There was a monster hotel which only opened at night and a family strayed into the hotel. Parents were punished for doing wrong, their daughter had to work in the hotel. During her time there, a lot happened.
L: That's really cool! And I know the animations of this movie are as smart as a new pin! I can't wait to see it!
T: Right, it was made by Japanese animation master Hayao Miyazaki. His other works are also great.
S: Do you remember our dubbing contest?
T: Of course, you have attended it,right?
S: Yes,although I didn't get the prize, but I got my favorite cartoon.
T: Is it The Legend of LuoXiaohei?
S: Yes, it's a light of Chinese cartoon and one of my favorite characters is a tiger.
T: The tiger? You girls like tigers?
S: No, this tiger is cute. It's a super cute tiger who speaks northeast words.
T: Looks fierce inside lovely, the contrast is cute.
S: Not only the character and plot is interesting, the picture and voice is very fine too.
T: Wow, that sounds interesting. I have to see it.
S: Unfortunately, it's very slow to update, and I'm sure you can finish it quickly, and then, like me, wait for its long update.
D:Today I’d like to recommend The Nut Job to your guys.
V: Is this the movie that you dubbed in the competition organized by us VOE radio station?
D:Yep, I won the first prize. The Nut Job is an animated comedy following the animal inhabitants of a city park. When loner squirrel Surly selfishly foils the other animals' plan to swipe some nuts from a nut cart, the park leader, banishes him to the city.
V: Well, I think this is a movie just for kids. It's clean. It's not meant to impress adults; it will impress young kids, especially boys. The movie has a happy ending, it's not scary, the bad guys get caught and life goes on better than it had before.
D: Do you remember the old candy bar slogan? "Sometimes you feel like a nut? Sometimes you don't?" -- well let's just say you probably won't feel like this particular Nut, but if you take your kids, the very youngest will probably dig the silliness.
V: That is because most kids of a particular single-digit age will like any thing that makes them laugh and has gross-out jokes about burping and flatulence.
L: the animation I want to recommend is COCO. Coco is a 2017 American animated fantasy film. The film won two Oscars for best Animated feature and Best Original Song. It is also the 15th highest-grossing animated film ever.
C: The story follows a 12-year-old boy named Miguel Rivera who is accidentally transported to the land of the dead, where he seeks the help of his deceased musician great-great-grandfather to return him to his family among the living.
L: the movie was done with love, with hard work and with a tremendous amount of sensitivity. It was well informed, careful and respectful. The movie did not feel like it was made by a tourist.
C: A mexican said that, I love that this movie brings something positive about Mexico to the world. It makes perfect sense to me that Coco is the highest grossing animated film in Mexico history.
L: indeed, through watching this movie, I know more things about Mexico. Especially the Day of death, it is related to the Mexico folklore and connected to their legacy.
C: maybe that is the meaning of movies, it’s not just a type of entertainment, it helps you to explore the world.
V:I really like this topic of today's program,as in my free time,I like best is watching animated cartoon,especially funny ones.
D:Well,I do not often animated cartoon,but now I become so interested in these wonderful animations mentioned above that I want to them immediately.
V:Well,I bet you will fall in love with them and it is time to say goodbye again.
D:OK.See you next time,感谢制作刘柏霖.
