    I’m not terribly fussy about adaptations being 100% true to the original but the “With You” remake just feels wrong. Maybe I just adore Liu Haoran too much as Yu Huai, but Chen Fei Yu’s portrayal seems like a different character altogether. The trailer makes it seem like yet another youth movie, when the original is a lot less fluff (subtle romance built on solid friendship, Geng Geng’s family issues, Yu Huai’s ambition and insecurities).

      Guan Xiao Tong being in The Dream of Red Mansions 红楼梦 ?
      She’s gonna be a cameo in the film version.

      -the cast of Dandelion Love 蒲公英之恋 ? (there’s a cast on Baidu but I was told it was only rumors)
      -Zheng Shuang and Yang Yang being in Falling in Love With You is The Best Thing I Have Ever Done 爱上你是我做过最好的事 ?
      – Invisible King 不王之王 ?
      All these are not true.

      -Zheng Shuang and Hou Ming Hao being in A Chinese Ghost Story 倩女幽魂 ?
      No confirmation but likely to be true. Zheng Shuang has been spotted on set.

      -Chen Xing Xu and Sun Yi being in The Last Prince 最后的王公 ?
      Only a rumor. Chen Xingxu is currently filming a new drama right now.

      – Chen Xing Xu being in A Ghost Story 倩女幽魂 ?
      Yes. He already filmed the new version.

    I’m like momo… LHR and Tan SongYun left such strong characters for With You I’m not really feeling the new With You adaptation. Another note is that I like He LanDou in general and find her cute…but she’s not exactly the strongest actress…while I’m not saying TSY is like amazing, but she’s solid and having seen quite a few of HLD’s webdramas bc I like her, her GengGeng doesn’t feel any different than her role in the college-dorm drama she did…and the way she acts “awkward/shy” is very formulaic with all her characters. Not to say she’ll do poorly, but I don’t see why they want to make a With You remake if there’s nothing really surpassing the original. It’s close enough that it’s not like wuxia remakes where the technology or visuals will be all that different either.

    Interested in the Mermaid webdrama and Yang XuWen/DaiSi’s action drama. Very interested also in the cooking/food drama with Ethan and Song Zu’er. I really really like Song Zu’er, heh.

    Luo Yunxi x Chen Yuqi! Yes. Really digging this good-looking pair. Visuals are so important in historical dramas heh. And I think the official title is And The Winner Is Love from the poster, but the literal translated title is much nicer and sounds more poetic lol.

    Not really digging the Ethan and Song Zu’er pairing. The age difference is too much…

    There have been plenty of movie adaptations of works that also have a drama adaptation, like 3310, Love O2O, etc so a With You movie isn’t surprising. However, the issue of movie adaptations is often that they are much shorter so they don’t have enough time to develop properly. I wonder how they’ll portray Yu Huai’s ups and downs throughout his school life in such a short amount of time. Yu Huai is an interesting youth drama hero because he’s not automatically and effortlessly perfect. He works really hard for his grades and occasionally fails when he’s distracted from his studies. Liu Haoran was equally cheeky as he was reticent and moody so he gives off that vibe of invincible youth and fragile ego all at once like a real high schooler. It’ll be interesting to see how they pull off the 耿耿于怀 feelings of regrets in such a short amount of time.

    Lololol at Mr. Eyebrows… spot on, Kappy!

    I like Arthur a lot, so naturally I’m looking forward to My Best Summer. I love the trailer, and his chemistry with He Landou is very cute. Admittedly, I haven’t seen With You. But I totally understand those who love it (I guess the 8+ douban score is well deserved) will be super cautious and definitely compare the movie to the drama. Most of the time movie adaptations suck, although I personally think the Love O2O movie is much better than the drama.

What do you think?
