Brickbat: What a Bunch of Pooh

'Christopher Robin,' Disney

Chinese officials have blocked the release of Disney's Christopher Robin in that country. No reason was given for the move. But the movie depicts a grown up Christopher Robin getting a visit from his childhood friend Winnie the Pooh, and Chinese censors have cracked down on references to Winnie ever since critics of President Xi Jinping have mocked his resemblance to the character.
