  1. I do agree with @reiko53 

    In douban, some people were rating it 0.5 right after it came out and it has more reviews that usual. This to me is a red flag for antis. Of course not all reviews will come from them but you can dislike a movie and not think it deserved 0.5 stars. 

     

    ZLY has a ridiculous amount of organized haters. It is shocking. Some celebs do too and sometimes I wonder how accurate douban scores are for their dramas/movies. Usually if they get a low douban score it is correct but not as low as the one they get. Like Untouchable Lovers with GXT, def doesnt deserve 3.0. Not the best but is entertaining, however she has a lot of organized haters and the score is abysmal.

    yes he is scumbag, I don't know why she is still with him. The public is on her side and she has money. I feel bad for her. They are not officially separated and people think she got her back due to some contract she had signed.

    So many cheating scandals in c-ent in these past two years. A lot of cheaters, but then again same in other countries entertainment business.  And these are only the ones we find out about. 

     

    I guess there is a lot of cheating in real life so only makes sense that you see a lot of celebs cheating. I think it is just shocking to us bc we see them and they are both very pretty and have money don't seem lacking in anything so we wonder why are they cheating. But I don't think they need a reason. Some people just like to cheat.

    Yep. Tongliya was one and then there was the rumoured (or not) with HL (YM's hubby). Unlike for men, it is harder for public to accept women. It's all double standard. 

     

    no poor TongLiya, her husband was the one that cheated on her (this is pretty much confirmed) and then he forced her to be part on one of his movies and he pretty much offended her character in the movie. Then HL is rumored to have cheated on YM, he said they were just practicing their lines in his hotel room at night. It is up to you what you make out of that, YM said she believed him.

    That incident was in Thailand so I think she let her guard down and for sure the papz already smell something fishy in advance so they were following her. I am sure someone sold her out... Btw, I watched her with EP, she is a great actress....

     

     



    yeah she is good, very likable on screen. But this will follow her around. I think she is a good actress and don't judge her too much on the whole cheating thing since they were in an open relationship, but I still can't unsee it lol. I was watching Surgeons a few months ago and I just kept picturing her poking video :blink:

    Maybe  she needs to take some time off until people forget it. Afterall male celebrities do way worse and get away with it. Just look at the most popular movie this CNY. The director is a scumbag.

    @mrsyooknit

    What cheating scandal with BBH? Isn't the husband already clarified that they already divorced secretly for few years so she is not cheating?

     



    They never got divorced. In fact they are still married. Maybe they were separated between them but there was no official divorce so them being separated is just them saying that after the fact. You can question if they just said that to cover it up afterwards. Even if it does seem that they were cheating on each other or had an open relationship. On top of the fact that they kept pretending to be a happily married couple until right before the scandal, people overall don't have a good impression on the situation. But I have to say she has really good PR bc they have done a good job covering everything up. I like her as an actress but sadly I can't unsee that video :crazy:

    I'd prefer Stephen Chow too, most of his films are very very good and hilarious too.

     

    Btw tbh i dont understand and confused why Yingbao still selected as No 1 Lunar actress, and it's alr for 2 consecutive weeks when it's said that the movie was not doing good? I wonder how they select, can anyone explain more pls, thanks in advance.

     

    well maybe bc the only other actress out with a movie is BBH and she has that cheating scandal lingering around her so probably wants to keep a low profile. Just a guess. This CNY is mainly dominated by male celebs. 

    Also, it is not like the movie is doing horrible but that expectations for the movie were higher. I would say that it needs to reach 1 Billion to meet what people expected and it is unlikely to do so. Other movies if they get as much as MK3 has right now are considered huge success but in this case not. So overall the movie is doing bad. Will reach 800M if lucky.

    I know what you meant, Monkey King isn't a romance movie, it's supposed to focus on Tang and MK....:lol: but I saw another critic (Guardians, if my memory didn't fail me) that complained too much romance plus isn't convincing....MK2 is Eddie Peng, right?

     

    no, MK2 is with the same cast  as MK3 just Gong Li instead of Zhao Liying. The one with Eddie Peng was called Wukong or something like that. 

    All MK movies get destroyed by critics. I thought MK2 was pretty good. MK1 was HORRIBLE :lol: and the one last year with LGX was bad too imo but not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

    Yup, that was the major complain, too much focus on the romance and the romance isn't convincing...LOL!! But I thought the focus on the romance is according to the book? I don't remember the book, I read too many versions....

     

    It's a CNY tradition to have a Sun Gokong film. The most successful one so far according to Wiki is The Demons Strike Back (last year) but I didn't enjoy it tbh...too heavily CGI for my taste. I still prefer Stephen Chow as Sun GoKong....that was gold in my book....

     

     

    I think they just have a MK movie every year, sometimes two like last year. I still think the best one was The Monkey King 2 but I have not seen Monkey King 3. 

    I think most complaints are not that romance was unconvincing but that there was too much romance for the genre if you get what I mean.

    I saw many critics complimented ZLY’s acting as The Queen but most of them criticised the lacked of chemistry between ZLY-FSF. Their loveline isn’t convincing.

     

    Beside MK3, Detective Chinatown and Monster Hunts 2 are the competitors for box office during CNY. If I am not mistaken both films do better than MK3.

     

    yeah, but they all have gotten ripped by critics tbh. Most critics were unhappy that the monkey king felt like a supporting character and there was not enough monster fighting. Felt there was too much focus on romance. Some people felt like they had chemistry others didn't. 

     

    I just think the focus in romance didnt make this film family friendly and hard to compete during CNY.

    Agreed. I tried watching other dramas but no oomph.

    So bored without LY's dramas. She is the only one that can get me hook to binge watch her dramas.

    @reiko53 I too agreed with u on why there's no confirm date on when it will be aired, as a matter of fact, it's so hush hush  if it's not for the trailer, i'd totally forgotten about it.

     

     

     probably this Summer. It got bought by Dragon TV for their 8 pm time slot so I would guess they would put it in the Summer since ZLY has a lot of young fans and they are on their Summer break and should lead to higher ratings.

    From tradition that i grew up in, usually only married couples giving out red pockets, the singles even as big adults r still getting red pockets but I guess that tradition has broken, it's like as long as ur in a better position (moneywise), ur expecting to give out red pockets married or not..

     

    I think now bosses are suppose to give out money. Usually she would be expected to give her staff money but not the whole crew. She was being really generous. I once read an article of celebrities who treated their staff the best (as in money wise) and ZLY was second behind FBB.

  11. I am reading comments from one of the staff and there were over 400 staff members and everyone got one :astonished:

    Apparently it was a decent amount bc other people in the comments were like I can see it looks thick and he kind of agree. 

     

    The staff said commented that more important than money, he appreciated that ZLY gave it to him. And a firefly respondent that he/she just wanted the envelope. :lol:

    I saw the box office result today MK3 fall to 3rd place :(

     

    yeah, but second overall since it opened the 14th. However, it will fall into third tomorrow. As long as it gets over 1 billion, it did good.

    Ooohh, I know it....not the location...

     

    yeah, I use the web form and i don't see the location. But now I am wondering bc last year she flew to Beijing for new years too. However, I think I saw somewhere that she has a house in Shanghai but I can't find it. So maybe her parents live in Beijing?? I doubt they still live in her small town.

    400 million, this must be globally since China Box Office is reporting 350 million as of today. I think it will fall into third or fourth, the other movies got better reviews.

    I thought she lives in Beijing bcoz in her Weibo and her studio Weibo stated Beijing???? :blink:
