Topic2 Chinese cartoon copies CarsCritics and disappointed movie goers say a newly-released Chinese animation2 is a copy of Pixar's hit film franchise3, but the filmmaker and production company have denied the accusations4, insisting it is "independently produced" and an "original" film.
In the poster of Chinese cartoon "The Autobots," released in theaters on July 4, the race car protagonist5 closely resembles that in the 2006 and 2011 "Cars" movies. The Chinese title of the movie is similar too to that used by "Cars."Is the Chinese cartoon a rip-off of Pixar's Cars?

Any school that violates the rule will be stripped of any honors or titles. At the same time, the Ministry of Education has also set up a public complaints hotline.
Are these extra courses or tutoring sessions a problem?
