Goodness, they are doing promotions for this TV series, but still we don't even have a release date. China is so different than how America operates, SMH They just say it will be released next week after all is done jeez and all the sudden we have the show airing after announcement of release date. China is STRANGE, to an American Chinese like me! I gotta say I absolutely prefer how America does it, release date known LONG before it comes out. Before any trailers, and promotions..

The problem isn't that Jin Yong franchise has gotten old (it is TIMELESS), nor do I only want to watch Jin Yong franchise nonstop. I would rather watch new and original stuff! No, the problem is that Chinese don't have writers anymore that's good as Jin Yong. And, also the problem that China lately is NOT trying hard to make good Wuxia anymore other than Jin Yong stuff. The problem is that most of what comes out in China nowadays aren't anything close to these Wuxia series! The reason that Jin Yong's works has been rehashed like 100x times is because his work is SUPER QUALITY Wuxia Storytelling with both the plot and the Action wonderful to watch! Problem is that China can't figure out how to create NEW materials that's as good as Jin Yong stuff, anything that tried to came up fails in comparison by a lot! Mediocre Wuxia plot, with terrible fighting choreography! All these love-centered plot with some fights aren't considered true Wuxia, but I have seen many of these labeled as Wuxia. Nah!!!! Only one cool fight scene in 10 episodes is laughable calling it Wuxia series. China is joking themselves with a lot of these fake-Wuxia series that pretends to be Wuxia. Jin Yong based shows are to me, the true Wuxia. A fight scene is in almost each episode, accompanied by interesting plot! So, until there are new writers in China that has the Jin Yong talents, I am afraid that Jin Yong franchise CAN'T be let go, because Wuxia has to thrive!!!

jin yong [Upcoming Mainland Chinese Movie 2024] Condor Hero 神雕侠侣:问世间
Don Yu replied to a_tumiwa's topic in Mainland China
Unlike the Joy Of Life trailer, this is such a RIDICULOUSLY uninteresting rushed, short trailer that showed absolutely near nothing. I LOVE Wuxia the MOST though, and might rewatch the Legend of Condor Heroes came out 7 years ago again. Here is it's 1st trailer, compare to this movie trailer. For something that comes out in 10 days, you only release a 30 seconds teaser. Are you kidding me? Makes me wonder if it's actually going to be any good, cuz when they don't want to show a lot to viewers, maybe it's trying to hide something? -

Don Yu replied to Yinye's topic in Mainland China
It's pretty decent drama. Not Jin Yong like Wuxia(What else is really?) but still the action is pretty good -

The webmasters on the Youtube are morons, got a different language other than Chinese uploaded. And this isn't actually even the first time either. Feels like they themselves aren't Chinese, so he/she do it in their own language. Do they expect people watching this aren't mostly Chinese? But Korean, Vietnam, Thai or whatever that language is? Let me know when Chinese language is actually uploaded. SIGH :/
