    Anyone love Damien acting?

    *There is a new show Damien and Michael Tong. Anyone know the title of the movie. Most likely is a Taiwanese Movie.

    Although I've only watched Damian in one series so far, I like him and his acting. I definitely want to see more of his works in the future, especially "Greed of Man".

    I think Damian is a very gifted, versatile actor. Loved him in all of Yang Pei Pei's tv series, such as:

    Huan Jun Min Zhu (Returning Pearl to Husband) with Su Ming Ming
    Ba Yue Gwei Hua Xiang (Scent of Gwei Hua/Flower in August) with Su Ming Ming
    Chun Qu Chun You Hwei (Spring Comes and Goes) with Steve Ma Jing Tao
    Bi Hai Qing Tian (Love as Wide as the Jaded Sea?) with Cecilia Yip

    Ah......those were the days when Yang Pei Pei could produce great dramas.

    I liked his acting in Qian Wang Zhi Wang - Cong Chu Jiang Hu and Tian Xia Di Yi. He's a heroic man to my impression or maybe his roles were always like tat. A great actor of his time along with Patrick Tam.

    I'm currently watching Point of No Return and like Damian's character a lot, especially his interactions with his son, played by Julian Cheung. Zhou Ming Xuan is not a perfect father or husband or even man, but somehow still makes for such a great hero-type figure. He reminds me of the character Damian played in Greed of Man. Damian is just perfect in such roles.

    I've just finished watching Eight Heroes, where he plays as Guan Yu Lou. His role is very funny, I like his acting a lot.

    my favourite actor of all time.

    i'm guessing most of you are too young to remember his roles from the late 70s and early 80s.

    The first time I saw him in one of those type of roles, i.e. Awakening Story, I thought he was a great actor, able to pull off the haughty, self-indulgant attitude. But then his repeat performance in "Only Care About You" was almost an exact replica. So I've come to the conclusion that maybe he's just reflecting his own arrogant attitude.

    Has he ever acted as a kind, considerate character before? That would be interesting to see if he can pull off.

    Yes, he played such a character in The Great General.

    Hmm, Damian's never come off as particularly arrogant to me.

    Definitely, Damian is one of my favorite actors too. Actually, the reason why I am so addicted to tv series. He certainly has that special charm, his characters are played so well. Lately, I have been searching for the following series:

    俠義見青天
    http://www.youngpp.com.tw/portfolio12.html

    Anyone know if it has been released on VCD/DVD yet? Thanks!

    I've never seen him in press interviews though, so hopefully his true personality isn't the same as the portaryal of characters in Awakening Story and Only Care about You.

    By the way, the series he did w/ Michael Tong is "Only Care About You".

    I know this man is legendary, but I've only seen him in "Ba Da Hao Xia."
