00:00Disney released a Pirates of the Caribbean film with 10 fewer minutes for a country we know very well
00:05Okay, China.
00:06I make videos about movies and TV series, and if you like them, subscribe.
00:09Pirates of the Caribbean 3 was censored in China.
00:12The deleted scenes involved one of the most famous Chinese actors, Shao Yongfa.
00:17In Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, he plays Sao Feng.
00:21He is a pirate from Singapore who is bald, scarred, and very theatrical.
00:25Except that in China, the character is very poorly received, really very poorly.
00:30In fact, they halved Shao Yongfa's screen time because his character was deemed
00:37as a humiliating portrayal of the Chinese.
00:39In the version we know, the character appears for about 20 minutes, but in the Chinese version, for about 10 minutes.
00:46Disney surely imagined that having Shao Yongfa in the film would help make it more accessible to the public.
00:54Asian audience.
00:55But his character has become a big problem.
00:58And that was perceived as humiliating, so it was censored and even, I believe,
01:03banned in China.
