Third Trailer.... No English sub yet... 

Lol.. Tang 36 is hilarious  

So far, from the trailer I'm impressed with the cinematography and also the dresses... 

But Luo Luo's bronzer seems to be a tad too much... 

[Lynne]

This is the current description of the Drama...

I'm sure not everything will be the same as the book.. but I guess it's a given because the book itself hasn't ended yet... Lol. so far the trailer satisfy me.. because I can still sorta see the calmness of CCS...

To pick is to choose. This is a story about choices. One billion worlds, full of gods and demons, holding a Taoist scroll in your hand, you are able to control the entire universe.

At the beginning of time, a mystical meteor came crashing down from outer space and scattered all over the world. A piece of it landed in the Eastern Continent. There were mysterious totems carved upon the meteor. Through studying these totems, humankind comprehended the Tao and established the Orthodoxy.

Several thousands of years later, fourteen-year-old orphan boy Chen Changsheng was saved by a Taoist monk, and accepted as a disciple. He is actually the fourth prince of the Chen’s Royal bloodline. However, Changsheng is plagued with an incurable illness, fated not to live past the age of twenty. To find a cure, he leaves his temple to find the magical stone that will change his fate. Bringing a piece of a marriage vow with him, he sets out to Shendu Province, thus beginning journey of a rising hero going against the world. Along the way, he meets Xu Yourong and they slowly fall in love after passing though the trials and tribulations of the journey.

[IMOmusings]

So........E01 and E02 aired last night....thoughts anyone? ^.^

[Lynne]

@IMOmusings I'm trying not to watch this yet.. as it's still on the early episode. I'm planning to start after the show hits 20+episode.....  LOL.. have you started yet?

[IMOmusings]

@lynne22...T_T I made the mistake of starting...LOL and now I watch every episode. They changed quite a bit of the characterisation and storyline already~~~~ it's not bad persa y, but definitely not for novel purists!

Have you read the novel?

[Lynne]

@IMOmusings was it good? 

Yeahh i'm following the translated novel.. and loving it...

But I'm not really supprised on the changes on the drama because the novel itself has not ended yet... My prediction the story will end on

Spoiler

Evil empress's death... lol 

 

I guess as long as the story is enganging everything will be alright then... 

How do you find the story so far?  Lol from snippets here and there were a lot of cute momments 

 

 

[omiki]

Just started watching this. So far, I'm liking it. I've never seen the main actor before but he's very good looking, although a bit young. Luo Luo, Tang36 and the Bear are adorable. I also like the cgi crane ... haha

 

[IMOmusings]

@omiki the CGI crane looks exactly the same as the anime one xD

@lynne22...you can't really hate the empress in the drama xD she's special
There are a LOT of changes, but personally, I feel, that it was in very good taste. The novel itself is a bit....draggy. Drama changes the timeline quite a bit and character development is a little more fast-paced. I'm looking forward to how they make the tournament xD
