Doesn't ChuHan look like a mini-reunion of 3Kingdoms with MUCH more dirt and blood?!
I actually think Eddie is much more suitable than the current older looking HG in terms of look for a HXB as soon as he's in talk of joining, so yeah, I think Koala should disown me first if she's in the mood of disowning. Too bad the production looks destined to crapville and beyond for me.
It does! I noticed the actor for Liu Bei from 3K in this. I can't wait for this thing. I think HBO, which bought HXM's upcoming series, apparently, should buy this one, so I'd be sure of subs.
I am utterly unfamiliar with anything in DMY production so I have little to no opinion on it. Tangren productions range from amazing (BBJX) to designer should be fired (first CP, imo), so...
I'm not a fangirl of the LiuBei in 3K and don't really think he has the commanding aura of the dictator QinShiHuang, but here he is again playing a role I think must be able to hold his own against the LiuBei and the XiangYu. There's the ZhangFei in 3K as FanKwai here. Also there are a few fr the other big classic adapt hit WaterMargin and at least one veteran fr the 'original' 1994 3K (which my dad still insists is the Better one).
But golly it's all who's who of C veterans playing bit roles I can't even keep track. They alone can explain a billion RMB used in the production.
Other than I'm more than fine with Eddie as HXM, it does look more horrific of cheapo/every turdish wrong sets and costumes than I'm afraid CP, ie the rest of Koala gripes r all no truer words. BTW XuanYuan Sword is set to air in July. they r going on promo rounds now. I rem u r interested
Yeah, I recognized a whole lot of people. This thing does look like it had money poured into it by the buckets. Very lavish (but not overwhelming the story, if 3K is anything to go by). I love just how gritty and grim and bloody it looks and much as I crush on Peter, CDM pretty much blew me away in all his scenes. I need to watch more stuff with him.
Yeah, I am sure XY Sword will be another CP1/CP3 lunacy, but I can't resist my tacky fantasy fighting epic thingies. Plus, I am guaranteed subs because JiangHu picked it up.
As hot as I think the others you listed are, I don't think they'd quite fit the bill for "so pretty he has to wear a mask"... with the exception of CHEN KUN. Holy crap, that guy! *oogles* I keep forgetting how pretty he is because he's never on my screen, with him always picking things that I'd never touch with a 10-foot pole.
I can handle the horror part, but I refuse to touch Painted Skin purely on the basis of the whole, "I'm attracted to someone other than my wife!" thing. By all accounts he has incredible chemistry with Zhou Xun and fans were in shippy heaven over it, but that's one ship I'll never board; I just can't see it as anything but adultery.
