ROFL. That would be my sister giving me bad info. She told me four days two days ago *sadface* Since she's the one who stays at places with satellite TV. BUT I WENT THERE MYSELF TODAY AND CHECKED. The premier gala thing is on the 1st. First episode is either after or on the 2nd. [The latter is more likely~ \o/]
jkahajkwe i can only recognise like, guan yu and zhang fei out of context lmao THEY ARE AMAZING. xD ...uh. 8D;; like zhao yun's flying, hahahaa. changban baby scene goes on FOREVER WRY.
drama looks hellishly shiny though. :'D ♥ period costuuumesss~
I only recognize them. And Liu Bei. And Cao Cao. Because Cao Cao's speeches are EPIC and RAWR. And Liu Bei coz he bitches out Sun Quan in the shorter version somewhere else on Youtube~ |Db I TOLD YOU GUYS IT WAS LIKE... FIFTEEN MINUTES LONG AND VERY SHINY AND EPIC AND KAREN IS GOING TO LOVE IT XDDD
It's SODIJFIOSF <3 I can't wait to get my hands on it sometime later this year \o/
Hm...I watched the first version that was filmed back in the early 90's (there were like, 80+ episodes to the entire series) and ever since then I think my image of what the Three Kingdoms "should" be has been set to that standard. I don't know, I just can't get used to anyone else portraying these characters after watching that first version. When I watched Red Cliff I had the same problem, it just kept feeling like something was missing and watching this trailer I'm getting the same vibes >__<
It's weird, I really loved the batch of historical dramas that came out from mainland China from the 90's and ever since then it feels like all the ones that have come after tend to fall a bit short of that standard...which is weird considering technology and stuff has advanced so one would imagine the new ones to be more captivating.
It's always like 'the original is the best' kinda thing~ I'm ok with everything because I never watched the original series in full [only clips and various scenes]. But since mainland is determined to remake all of the classics within like... a five year period, it's going to be hilarious. I find the new casting of 'Dreaming of Red Mansions' a bit =3 but that's because I have watched the original [although I do forget most of it since I was all of 8 at that point].
I think the reason that in your view everything since the 90s isn't 'as good' is coz they actually relied on good acting then. Nowadays, it's half about the acting and half about the special effects |D;;
Yeah, I think you hit it on the head. I watched the original of all the 4 famous stories, Journey to the West, Dream of the Red Chamber, Three Kingdom, Water Margins, and even to this day I love them and re-watch them all the time. I never thought about that last bit you said, but yeah, now that I think of it it's true. The acting back then was pretty damn good.
I remember an interview with the actors/actresses for the first version of Dream of the Red Chamber and they were saying how the entire cast for that series had to live together in like, a dorm, for 2 years before filming began just so they could make the interactions between the characters seem 'real' in front of the camera, I was like 'holy hell...that's some dedication O_o'.
