I don’t know if the two diametrically opposite review camps for xianxia C-drama Till the End of the Moon are just the fandom and the anti-fans being the most vocal or there are actually casual viewers who think either way. Because this drama is my definition of mid (borrowing youth lingo here) – nowhere near as bad as most xianxia … Continue reading →
Alrighty, this is what I call a case of speaking too fast and being not well learned enough to make the wrong analogy lol. C-actress Bai Lu issued a formally apology over the weekend when her interview 4 years ago from 2019 was unearthed when she was asked about the romance in her then airing C-drama The Legends (Zhao Yao) … Continue reading →
It’s hitting the midway point for xianxia C-drama Till the End of the Moon and so far I’m still entertained but it’s not going to become my fave xianxia drama of all time. Luo Yun Xi is fantastic despite his less than imposing physical stature, onscreen he’s commanding a strong presence and that’s all that matters. Bai Lu is radiant … Continue reading →
So this is either great publicity drumming or a way to counterprogram. There were a lot of C-dramas finished in 2021 and 2022 that fans have been dying to watch and the released earlier this month of Till the End of the Moon was the oasis water for period fans parched desert thirst. But now comes rumors that Story of … Continue reading →
So xianxia (fantasy wuxia) C-drama fans have been on a tear the last six days thanks to the premiere of Till the End of the Moon with Bai Lu and Luo Yun Xi. I knew this drama would be a hit after watching the first two episodes and surprisingly liking to so much, xianxia rarely works for me since it … Continue reading →
I don’t know why there has been no official trailer for xianxia period C-drama Till the End of the Moon until now like 3 days before the premiere. Better now than never and whether this drama is any good will be known soon and I know lots of C-drama fans are clamoring for a gripping dog blood-esque xianxia drama with … Continue reading →
Those C-drama fans on a high budget xianxia drama drought can get excited now, Youku has scheduled long finished Till the End of the Moon (Chang Yue Jin Ming) with Bai Lu and Luo Yun Xi for April 6th, the end of this week. This is the drama I associate with Luo Yun Xi dressed like xianxia Sith Lord and … Continue reading →
This weekend was the 2022 Weibo Night in China, weird that it takes place in 2023 but the 2022 means it covers dramas and movies from last year. The popular vote for Weibo King and Queen was trending young but the award is also decided with decision input from the hosting body so in the end it was a blast … Continue reading →
So I’ll preface this by saying that I’m moderately excited for C-drama Only For Love but have pretty low expectations. That’s because C-dramas take any profession and workplace and just cosplay the shit out of it with pretty people and super sanitized settings and situations. The most recent two I watched was She and Her Perfect Husband with both the … Continue reading →
I’m here just to see if Bai Lu actually goes through the entire laundry list of same level male leads in her casting carousel for the Republic era C-drama Northward. First it was Tan Jian Ci, then to Wang Yi Bo and last week got the big name Yang Yang connected. Apparently over the weekend Gong Jun‘s name was thrown … Continue reading →
Well this is either the biggest melon ever or a whole lotta wishful thinking. Yesterday a rumor started in the casting circles that Bai Lu and Yang Yang would be pairing up for a high profile C-drama called Northern based on a same name novel set in the Republic era which is after the end of the Qing dynasty and … Continue reading →
C-actor Dylan Wang‘s fanbase was always devoted but it’s gotten even larger after his summer hit Love Between Fairy and Devil. Which helps with the goodies for his next drama Only For Love (also referred to as Love as Camp) costarring Bai Lu. The leads were spotting filming in public this week and not just random street filming it was … Continue reading →
This summer of 2022 was really a two-horse race of Love Between Fairy and Devil and Love Like the Galaxy, and it wasn’t for television ratings are both are web dramas but for buzz and cache. My two cents says both dramas are male lead dominant, i.e. it benefitted Dylan Wang and Wu Lei respectively more than the female leads. … Continue reading →
