    i really tried with wuyifan but everything he does look awkward. he look quite good with his mouth close tho…
    i’m excited for the duckweed and the game changer teaser seem soo interesting…
    i’m not really fan of kungfu yoda other than that ugly name, it ‘s look like any other JC films but will try to watch for sonu sood and Jacky chan…

    Aside from Duckweed of course, I’m really interested in No Return Village (maybe Entangled Worlds). No Return Village seems so intriguing! The trailers make it seem like a funny, kind of creepy, a little mystery…BUT the song mv is SO angsty! It was haunting and beautiful yet so wrought with angst! Really interesting dichotomy, especially how the first trailer was complete comedy-feel. I really like how the Taiwanese trailer was done tho. The voice was sweet and gentle, yet made the whole thing overall feel really creepy and sinister…

    Game Changer also looks kind of interesting. I’m all for Peter Ho, but honestly he’s not that great an actor and he’s basically the same person in all his roles….tbh Tao actually looks like he’s got skills and seems a more interesting character than the lead Peter (a common trend, it seems…eh-hem Peter Sheng in Pretty Li Hui Zhen…a more unlikable lead and a stiffer actor I have never seen) in that mv that Zhang Liang Ying sings.

    Kung Fu Yoga has bad reviews overseas. So I won’t be checking that out. Excited for Journey to the West though!
