The drama adaptation of Tong Hua’s Da Mo Yao recently wrapped production after four months of filming, with the cast filming the Chang An scenes first in Heng Dian and then moving to Xiang Shan to film the desert and Xi Yu sequences. At this point I’ve seen all the BTS stills, which are so thoroughly leaked that I’ve pretty much seen every major scene from this novel transformed from written to visual. I’ve settled into grudging acceptance of the casting, and its actually Tangren’s latest ridiculous and horrible Xuan Yuan Sword that has me worried that DMY will turn into an equally mind numbing mess. XYZ is so so bad it actually pains me to know it came from the set production minds behind Bu Bu Jing Xin, which was flawed but ultimately quite winning. I can only cross my fingers that DMY will resemble its cousin BBJX in quality. With that said, the latest pictures finally show us what feral wolf girl Yu Jin looks like, a get up best described as “beggar hippie girl with dreads”. Liu Shi Shi definitely does not look like a young teen as Yu Er is described in that stage in the book, but I like that she exhibits an earthy quality. But what gets me super happy and excited is to see Brother Wolf in action, still more dog than wolf. Better yet, his brood of puppies roamed the set and caused cuteness explosions everywhere. Check it out.

The little puppies are so cute! I don't mind that they are more dog than wolf. I'm just glad that Brother Wolf won't be some CGI-ed horror movie animal, with Tangren's CGI quality I'd opt out straight based on that.
I agree puppies so kyyuuutttteee! I agree their CGI sucks big time.
I normally don't like swoon over dogs like some, but these puppies look so cute and cuddly like a baby panda and teddy bear that I just want to swoop them in my arms and hug them! ^_^
I do hope that the production would be as satisfying as BBJX. I wonder how this ending will turn out to be since they are being forced to change it to align with history. Has anyone heard anything about it?
Goodness! This is MAJOR doggie P0rN!!!
I too sincerely hope this will truly follow BBJX every startling step. We have our share of skepticism with BuBu at the same time point in production and it turned out an unbelievable surprise. We know XYJ was thrown together in sucha short shoot and with all these fan-bases to tap into, the chance of TR really putting damnest effort in it was slim, but 4 grueling months should be sth, esp seeing SS buried in the hot desert sand: http://i1138.photobucket.com/albums/n534/mookiehyun2/7d6be7cegw1duvizq3k4mj.jpg breaks my heart in how extremely tough it must be shooting this.
Brother Wolf in his armor has me in stitches!!! And the puppies are so cute- like little blobs of fur!
Dear Ms Koala only here to comment about those adorable bits of cuteness.Can they get any cuter? I will be taking photos with them non stop.
I squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeling. I want to get a hold of those cuddly puppies.
They're so cute!! Now, I'm sorry that I have to make them mine on my PC.
Awwww, BW and puppies.
I see poor, sweet Jiu Ye in the background.
I see puppies & armored dog/wolf. That's all I can see:)
dogs are way MUCH MUCH BETTER than a CGI-ed horror dog from Tangren. I can't trust Chinese special effects [they're so horrible], but I like these stills, and especially I LOVE the puppies!!! wish I can breed one of them here...
I'm watching XYJ (Xuan Yuan Sword)at the moment. Been marathoning past Hu Ge dramas (started with LOCH2008 and The little fairy which costars Ariel -love love love). Now downloading Chinese Paladin 1 and 3 as well.
I still watch chinese dramas for the mythology/fantasy premise. China has abundant engaging folktales - sadly most don't translate all too well onscreen due to their limited CGIs. So I usually turn a blind eye to all that and watch it just for the story. I get my CGI fix from hollywood. Haha.
Btw, the girl who acted as daughter of goddess Nüwa- bloody beautiful!
