Follow up to Jet Li’s Kung Fu Cult Master, Raymond Lam leads the veteran cast in film The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre

New Kung Fu Cult Master aka The Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre (倚天屠龍記) is set 20 years after the event of Jet Li’s Kung Fu Cult Master released back in 1993. Taking on the older character of Zhang Wu Ji is Raymond Lam and Janice Man as the love of his life – Zhao Min, along with other TVB veterans.

Wong Jing, what’s going on here? It’s been over 20 years and you thought to revive a sequel to this movie?! Why? I am happy you’re using all TVB actors and actresses but one would think we need something new and exciting?

TVB 48th Anniversary Awards Ceremony (2014): “Expected results.”


No, they are NOT getting married. Lol.

Longest shift today. 15 hours! Then I came home and belated realized the TVB annual awards show was this past Monday. Surprised that it did not generate the usual heated competition like the other years among the contenders. Then I scrolled down the winners list and the reason couldn’t be any clearer. There was no competition at all. The major winners of the night were expected, with only a few great surprises. I think TVB had a decent year in 2014. At least I think so because I’ve watched more series this year as compared to the past few years. But the dismal ratings…so low…

So I’m not a good representative of a TVB fan. heh. But now that fans have calmed down, I’ll tune in for some fun. Hint: A round of fashion terror!

TVB 45th Anniversary Awards Ceremony (2012): “Well-deserved!”

Is all I have to say. Your favorites might not win, but it’s hard to argue against the winners. Everyone looked happy and moved, and the camaraderie was palpable among the contestants. The stage looked nice this year, not the usual bright and shiny getup. We have a dark blue canopy with stars shining overhead. The one thing that stood out was the fashion. Ladies, you’re PRETTY! Dress BETTER!

A Promising Start: The Confidant Episode 1-5

Photobucket

So good! The fact that I inhaled the first five episodes in one sitting is telling enough. Unlike many other palace dramas, The Confidant focuses on the struggles of eunuchs – nothing too melodramatic or draggy for now, and less backstabbing and screaming from the consorts. I didn’t sense familial warmth and humor in the released trailers, but the first story arc added these two factors in seamlessly. The writer was able to turn daily routines into interesting character interactions, and before I knew it, I wanted to watch more. It’s a keeper! This one!
