I genuinely can't be happy about that.

According to some chinese people I talked with they did not entirely ban the film, they just removed the 2D version from theaters because they wanted to promote a big chinese film about Confucius instead. Avatar was still shown on 3D theaters. So it can perhaps have been more economic than ideological motifs, they simply wanted to favour their own film industry.
