Netflix's Next Gen paints an Americanized vision of China

Josh reviewed the new animated film Next Gen, an entertaining Big Hero 6-ish story of teenagers and robots. But what fascinated him was the setting: An Americanized vision of future China, made all the more interesting given that this very Western-styled film is actually made in China.
First published in 1903, South China Morning Post is Hong Kong’s premier English language newspaper and has the city’s most affluent and influential readership. With a reputation for authoritative, influential and independent reporting on Hong Kong and China. The newspaper is supported with its online publication and its Sunday edition, Sunday Morning Post.
Next Gen isn’t an American film. But you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s American.
