Lin Geng Xin’s Sword Master, Tang Yan’s Chinese Odyssey 3

Two movies with newly released trailers.

First up is Lin Geng Xin‘s wuxia movie, Sword Master, a film adaptation of Gu Long‘s Sword of the Third Young Master (三少爷的剑). Produced by Hark Tsui and Dong Yu, and directed by Derek Yee Tung Shing, who is a former Shaw Brothers actor and once portrayed the role of taken by Lin Geng Xin back in 1977. In the pictures below, you can see him bestowing the sword to Lin. Lol. That’s sweet. But I have to say, I don’t have any memory of this novel or the characters themselves. The titular role, Xie Xiao Feng, is one the best swordsmen in Gu Long’s world. They say no one has ever seen him draw his sword because those who had, never got the chance to tell. He’s supposedly that fast. It was dramatised in 2001 with Faye Yu, Zhong Hua He and Chen Long as leads. I recognized their costumes but can’t remember anything.

Director Yee jokes that he’s now Old Master, and if there is any questions, please direct them to Lin Geng Xin, the Young Third Master. 🙂

    Have to say…based on the stills alone, Chinese Odyssey is looking real good. Better than Third Master’s Sword. That might also be cuz I’m biased against Lin Geng Xin. Not that I particularly dislike him, I just..don’t like him either. And Tang Yan, while I don’t always like her acting, I rather like her.

      I feel the same. LGX is really dull. That’s not the real issue though. The trailer is just pretty crap IMO.

      Agreed. I don’t understand the trailer or the stills of Sword Master either. Everything seems like a blur and you have to squint real hard to see a second of Lin Geng Xin. XD
