Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Dunk for Future (Chinese: 喜羊羊与灰太狼之筐出未来; pinyin: Xǐ Yángyáng Yǔ Huī Tàiláng Zhī Kuāng Chū Wèilái; lit. 'Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Put Future into the Basket'), is a 2022 Chinese animated film. The film is adapted from "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: Dunk for Victories", one of the series of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf TV series.[1] It is preceded by Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf - Amazing Pleasant Goat (2015).

Plot[]

Weslie (Voiced by Zu Liqing), Wolffy (Voiced by Zhang Lin) and other goats formed a basketball team called "Team Defenders" and with all the attentions and expectations, "Team Defenders" made their way to the world-class basketball event---The Basketball City Cup. They were the most competitive team to grasp the trophy but they lost it unexpectedly because of the last shot of discord. The team seemed to fall away when Weslie and Wolffy had a dispute after the finals, Wolffy stated that Weslie should have passed the ball to him for the final shot since Weslie's foot injured during the game with "Team Tigers", while Weslie disagreed as he suggested that Wolffy's shots were constant failed shots which makes no difference to the game results. However, their passion for getting the trophy of the basketball game as well as true friendships will not be destroyed easily. Jonie (Voiced by Deng Yuting) decided to assemble the members again and reform the "Team Defenders" to join the next Basketball City Cup. However their opponents were more challenged, if they wanted to get the basketball championship this time, they must face the challenge with even more efforts.[2]

Production[]

In an internal interview with the Director of this film as well as the creator of "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf", Huang Weiming stated that despite the low box office earnings of the previous film, "Amazing Pleasant Goat" in 2015, the production team had not written off investing in more film productions, since the previous films had already covered different types of adventures in different themes. It is hoped that innovation is not the only thing they pursue but a real breakthrough when choosing the theme for a new film.

In 2017, the production team members had a thought of combining the animation with their favorite sport: basketball. In the series "Dunk for Victories" of the "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" TV series, which aired in 2021, had proved that this combination was successful, earning an 8.6 out of 10 score on Douban, and caused heated discussion in Hupu, a famous Chinese sports blog. The film's production started soon after that. In order to make the best film, the team made a total of 37 scripts, 74 storyboards, and 2,142 shots for trial and error during the whole film production.[3] The production team hoped that this film would become the best film for families during the Chinese New Year.[4][5]
