Heheh, my friend and I binged the first 5 today... got me through the bits that make my stomach turn. I do like it but everytime the map comes up I shake my head. Because regardless of whether they get it back they best redeploy their troops and rethink their military strategy. I chalked it down to lack of common sense or low survival instinc is why none of these pitiful little kingdoms lasted that long throughout Chinese history and kept watching. And I kind of like the dwarf and the whole Mad Max thing.

Not bad at all... some gigantic plot holes... like why reacquiring a defense map still matters after the enemy has eyeballed it many times. .. but it’s ok, gripping enough to suspend disbelief for now...

Tyvm - I was scratching my head as to how Indonesian subs popped up on on my youtube for ATV which was kind of annoying but I have now switched it off.

I really worry about this couple to be honest... If this is the way the handle small misunderstandings they are for sure doomed if something big happens.

Didn't she stay with him for quite awhile where they were left for long and intimate moments together? I had the impression his healing involved multiple sessions in the pool whether we saw only one or more I didn't count I was half numbed by their unending conversations that went nowhere... I didn't read the book either I just skimmed it but I recall they did a lot more than just talk. I don't care if the drama has them getting together later but my point is then don't fill the blank space with mindless conversation (this went on for countless episodes) just get the rest of the story moving. It is just lazy and possibly water injection intended scriptwriting and plot development.

That may be the case but at the drama has the feeling of a story where certain events were deleted and they filled in the blanks with conversation when rewriting and re-sequencing may have been harder work but would make the story more interesting and actually move. This perpetually has the feeling of something is missing. And some of it is kind of absurd like that the two of them were in a pool for days on end together and nothing really happens... Tou's thoughts may be on fire but it obviously didn't spread to his belly!!! Sigh!

Yes the plot is finally moving. I think this is one of those that I would have liked the book more than I am liking the drama. I know it is darker and sader but this is so whitewashed it is kind of boring.

I am all caught up... Heck I am pissed at Tou too. He knows he owes her an explanation but he is so stubborn and proud he refuses. That is the gist of this extended quarrel. What a dufus! I don't know why everyone is so made at Xuezhi when he is the ass. And it is super boring to watch.

Wow she is one pissed off chick! Good on her!!!

Yeah unfortunately Tencent's priority target markets are Southeast Asia so those are getting subbed first. Looks like the Indonesian subs are quite good, definitely not machine translated (like Twin Flower Legend) so be patient, I think the English subs will be good too.

I look at this industry and have fed back to management at all three streaming platforms that they need to release English subs at the same time when they launch their dramas. iQiyi has done it already. Next step is to complain about the quality of the subs but one thing at a time.

I will probably watch it I just need to get past the first 5 mins.

Heheh thx my friends told me to check it but that kind of scene esp if they are dragged out or sentimental scare the daylights out of me. I know it’s pathetic but I am waiting for the weekend so that my friend can watch it with me...

Heheh I saw those first five minutes and fled like the chicken shit coward I am.!!!

Excellent!!! Its not 100pct of the time, but usually every quarter whatever the company tells investors they are airing is the most reliable source...

Probably permanently damaged his feet as many ballet dancers do though usually ballerinas. No offense but I think his career switch was a good decision.

Thanks for pointing out the ending... I also felt that it just sucked.

Heheh, most movie stars are tiny. I have ran into quite a few in real life and am always shocked at how thin and often short they are. From what I have seen and IMHO the height stats on MDL or elsewhere online errs on the side of stretching the truth!!! The camera puts a lot of weight on them and if they eat in the middle of a shoot, their faces end up looking bloated.

I just hate the Duke Yuan dude so much I can't watch him anymore, am not invested in any of the characters and the story got too convoluted even for me.

I am finishing up The Victim's Game it is very good until the last episode kind of flops. It is still a good watch just very dark and not sure if you like that.

Lately the new c-dramas are all not that great- I think it is because advertising is bad they have pushed back all the really good shows and are launching weaker shows because they only make money from ads. Maybe watch old show? I like The Dark Lord a lot even though it is quite slapstick (which I don't usually like) I just can only watch 1-2 episodes at a time.

I also switched to Western shows - Billions season 5 is excellent and Briarpatch if you like the Tarantino/Fargo kind of stuff.

If not, I think Little Nyonya is airing soon, I will at least check it out?

Because that was Tiger and Rose which I dropped ! I am losing my mind watching too many of these things.
