A Postmodernist Adaptation of Traditional Themes:A Criticism on the Network Animation White Cat Legend
The Chinese network animation White Cat Legend adapts the traditional detective theme with postmodernist techniques,which becomes a big hit in the audience.In terms of animation production,each link is decentralized and de-authorized,and the audi-ence become the"No.N Author"who participate in the creation process of animation.In terms of image creation,White Cat is not only the deconstruction of the traditional serious detectives,but also the collage of man and cat,which caters to the mass consumption under the background of"cat culture".In terms of theme,its theme"Do good,don't ask about the future"is personal and immediate,and is a rebellion against grand narrative technique,which is in line with the era's atmosphere of"living in the present".The factors such as semi-invented narrative and humorous setting further neutralize the seriousness of the theme,creating lighthearted humor amidst the heavy tragedy.
