Vietnam has removed the animated film “Abominable” from its theaters because of a scene that depicts the main character standing in front of a map that shows the Chinese regime’s “nine-dash line” in the South China Sea.

The movie was jointly produced by the Shanghai-based Pearl Studio and Comcast-owned DreamWorks Animation.
