Global II

Illusion Studios seems to be cooking down Argentine way. First Gaturro, now this.

Argentina’s Juan Jose Campanella, director of runaway hit “El secreto de sus ojos” (The Secret in Their Eyes), is preparing to helm his first animated film, with a E6 million ($8.94 million) budget. “Metegol” (Foosball) is about the plight of a foosball team trying to reunite after their table is dismantled and scrapped.

... Illusion Studios, a local production outfit behind this year’s hard-boiled hoodlum satire “Boogie, el aceitoso,” has arranged co-production deals with Canada, India, Mexico, Spain and other countries for the toon pics ...

There are, apparently, other continents producing multiple animated pics. Who would have thought?

America is the same continent, regardless of it being north or south...

You are right
Cccording to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continent
North and South America can be ( but not always regarded as separate continents ) Funny, I could have sworn that I was taught otherwise, but I digress.
Anyway, how long has Europe and Asia been producing animated films?
