Episode Synopsis
Phil Svitek is joined by Demetri Panos (@DemetriPanos) and Marisa Serafini (@serafiniTV) to unpack Ne Zha 2—the $2.2 billion global phenomenon that redefined animated cinema. We break down everything from its production scale (over 4,000 artists across 138 studios) to its mythology roots in Investiture of the Gods. Topics include Ne Zha and Ao Bing’s evolving partnership, Lady Yin’s emotional sacrifice, and the larger worldbuilding. We also discuss the film’s groundbreaking animation, and what its record-shattering success means for the global animation industry. Whether you loved the spectacle, the cultural depth, or the mythology, this conversation explores why Ne Zha 2 isn’t just a sequel—it’s a milestone.
