    I've just finished the 9th ep of this serie.

    To be honest. I'm not happy with them. OK, it's a given that the introduction to Ng Hung's life was always the most boring part of the story. But this time it was REALLY boring.
    Because he is WAY too weak! He's supposed to be a ultimate superfighter scared by everyone at the heavens. Instead he didn't have much of a fight there...

    Even the most spectacular part of his heaven-story, the one where he rampaged and even threatened the Heaven King was extreme short. In fact, they didn't felt threatened that much.. <IMG SRC="smilies/angrystick.gif" border="0"> I really wanted to see him kick some major divine asses. Esp to those who treated him so badly.

    Anyway... the fun part of the journey is now starting. They are gathering the team and go on a trip... We'll see what happens next tape <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">

    TVB already cut it down to 35 episodes, if it was longer then it would be even more boring.

    I agree with that. But it's better that it's that bastard that is the evil one than three-eyed-guy <IMG SRC="smilies/smile.gif" border="0"> his character is supposed to be heroic, but we all hated that character because in TVB's version, he was the one who picked on Ng Hung.

    Also the love stories are SOOOOO in appropiate...

    Sorry for the delay - here is a bit more...

    Episode 5 - Purple Orchid plans to show her love for Monkey

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/286/13286M.jpg')
    Will you sisters let me off please? I am here to watch a fight not be a cheerleader!

    Purple Orchid and Purple Rose are rooting for Monkey and Na Ja respectively, Siu Bat becomes their middleman and finds this hard to bear. Monkey finds out that Mo Kuk intentionally plans to prevent Na Ja from entering the immortal world and decides to help him by deliberately losing to him, Na Ja is very grateful. Monkey congratulates Na Ja for becoming an immortal rank and encourages him to continue being Lee Ching’s son and by annoying him daily until he dies of stress is better than killing him outright, also they try to destroy the Ling Lung Pagoda. Later they find that the pagoda is linked to Lee Ching’s soul and is not so easily destroyed and is very annoyed at this. White Bone goes to the Heavenly Palace again to seek Monkey and is turned away by the soldiers at the Southern Gate, Purple Orchid appears and tells White Bone that Monkey is hers and she should give up, White Bone’s jealousy gets the better of her and the two start fighting, but White Bone loses. Purple Rose steals an orchid to give Na Ja as a gift, however he is allergic and thinks that someone is playing a trick on him. Monkey finds that a lady called Wang doing flips, he laughs at her saying she is flipping like a dog and that her neck is thick, waist is fat and bottom is big, at first Wang is very annoyed, but then she turns and asks Monkey to be her master. Wang learns how to do side flips and Monkey admits that he wants to have a mother to look after, the two have a great conversation. Purple Orchid borrows the Lover’s Pillow from Chou Kung and changes it for Monkey’s pillow, then she enters his dream and tells him of her love, Monkey thinks she is playing a joke on him. The next day, Purple Orchid asks him about the dream, Monkey changes the subject to tongue twisters and evades the question. The Empress holds an “Empress Cup Racing Contest” on her birthday, Monkey is sent to be the horse parking attendant and realises he is a very low ranking official, even half a lever lower than the Howling Dog, he is furious and says that he would rather return to the Fruit and Flower Mountain to be the Monkey King, Lady Wang persuades him to enter the Horse Race, saying that if he comes first the Empress will grant him one wish, Monkey announces that he wants to be given a great name – “The Saint of the Heavens Suen Ng Hung”.

    Episode 6 - Monkey is punished for stealing the Heavenly Peach

    Lady Wang suggests that Monkey selects the horse called “Speedy Tortoise” to enter the race, Monkey points out that it has short limbs and a big body, is ugly and doesn’t look like it will be much use, Wang points out that like Monkey, the horse has determination and perseverance and offers to enter him into the competition. In order to bring the horse up to scratch, Monkey and Na Ja morph into butterflies to enter the Peach Gardens and steal some Heavenly Peaches, they steal all the peaches and share them with Speedy Tortoise. Mo Kuk finds out that Monkey can enter the horse race and is not happy. Purple Rose sees that Na Ja is busy training Speedy and she is not able to tell him her feelings, she is frustrated. At the competition, the Empress loses her composure and roots for Monkey, the Jade Emperor is taken aback. The result is that Monkey wins on Speedy and when he claims his prize, he finds out that Lady Wang is the Empress. The Empress grants Monkey his wish and gives him the Name of “The Saint of the Heavens Suen Ng Hung” and the highest official ranking, also she personally gives him a warrior robe, Monkey’s eyes start to redden. At this point, the servant fairies report that the peaches have all been stolen, the Empress is very angry and tells Mo Kuk to investigate, Monkey and his companions know that trouble is brewing. Monkey takes on all the blame himself and the Jade Emperor calls for a heavy punishment but the Empress begs for mercy, the Emperor instructs Monkey to grow another 5000 peach trees without using magic, Monkey accepts this. Purple Rose is unhappy that Monkey has caused Na Ja to be punished as well and that she must accompany the Empress to the Peach Garden to see him, where she prepares Lotus Seed soup for him and sees him like her own son. Monkey sees the growth of the 5000 tress and is comforted by this, but Siu Bat hurriedly reports that all the trees have been dug up and they are shocked. The Jade Emperor resents the Empress for standing by Monkey, saying that Monkey’s wild streak cannot be tamed and that he wanted to use this incident to imprison Monkey for 1000 years to wash away his wildness, the empress wants to stand up for him, but leaves saying that she wants to look at the flowers. The Jade Emperor sees that Purple Rose is a little creepy and interrogates her, making her very scared.

To steal the peaches we must have a plan, changing into butterflies will mean no-one will know.

    Cool

    thanks em for doing this since I don't think I will watch it.

    the overall story sounds half scifi and little remote to original story. <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

    Hmm... I haven't seen any of this yet, but not being a JTTW fan at the best of times, this "daft version" really doesn't appeal at all. I think the majority of the viewers of this show will be teenagers who just wanna watch Twins and the likes of Jimmy and Nic, not necessarily for the literary value of the story or the spiritual significance. (Showin' my age a bit here!) <IMG SRC="smilies/tongue.gif" border="0">

    Anyway - here is a bit more, sorry if my motivation for this translation aint so great... it really does help if I am interested in the stuff I am doing, but this is proving tough!

    ---------------------------------------------

    Episode 7 - Monkey is sentenced to death

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/287/01287M.jpg')
    You really have some guts Monkey! How dare you throw the peaches at me?

    The Jade Emperor finds out that the Empress has been using listening to music and admiring flowers as excuses to go and see Monkey, he angrily calls for Monkey and says that he has failed in his responsibility, causing the peach trees to die, he also scolds the Empress for spoiling him and she too should be punished, when Monkey hears that the Emperor wants to punish the Empress, Monkey threatens him with the peach. Finally, the Emperor is covered in peach flesh, the Empress is horrified and the Emperor is furious, sentencing Monkey to a lifetime in prison, Monkey turns to leave, saying he wants to return to the Fruit and Flower Mountain. Monkey announces to the other monkeys that he will never return to the Heavenly Palace, the monkeys give him a flag of honour and he is very moved. Monkey arrives at the White Bone cave and sees White Bone venting her fury at Purple Orchid, he is puzzled at why she is not defending herself….

    Yee Long San takes 100,000 heavenly soldiers down to arrest Monkey, Monkey announces he will take responsibility for his actions and suggests to Yee Long San that the fight one on one. Mo Kuk sees them engrossed in their fight and using his right as left general, he forces Lee Ching to surround the Fruit and Flower Mountain. Monkey hears the cries for help from his monkeys and returns back to the Water Curtain Cave to investigate and all he can find is scenes of tragedy and he is filled with feelings of anger and sadness. The Jade Emperor wants to punish Monkey, but Purple Orchid begs for mercy, the Empress says that his crime warrants execution, everyone is shocked. Monkey is executed, but he is not injured. Tai Sheung suggests using the Hundred Treasure Furnace to burn him to death and the Jade Emperor agrees.

    Purple rose is curious as to why the Empress is preparing ten-thousand year old ling chi for Monkey to eat, the Empress indicates that he has a golden invincible body and is not afraid of any normal execution, but she is afraid he will not withstand the furnace and so she prepares some medicine for him to prolong his life. Na Ja wants to use his spirit to go and rescue Monkey, asking Siu Bat to help him look after his body and that if he unfortunately dies to bury his body next to his mother. Na Ja’s spirit is collected into a goad as soon as he enters the furnace room and he loses all his power. Purple Rose and Tai Pak find that Na Ja’s body is stone cold, Siu Bat tells them the truth and Purple Rose is very worried.

    Episode 8 - Monkey is held in the Five Finger Mountain

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://tvcity.tvb.com/drama/monkey_king/story/img/287/05287M.jpg')
    This is the happiest moment in my life - to be with you, I would die without regret

    Tai Pak deduces that Na Ja has been captured in the Ice Spirit Goad by the Tai Sheung and goes with Purple Rose to go and beg for Na Ja’s release, Tai Sheung refuses, Purple Rose leaves her body and goes into the goad to be with Na Ja in life and death. Na Ja is surprised to see Purple Rose and thinks that she is the guardian angel of his dreams. Tai Sheung says they have mortal hearts Tai Pak suggests that he gives them emotion-losing pills to try and convince Tai Sheung to release them, Tai Sheung agrees. Monkey burns in the furnace for 49 days but still doesn’t die and also gains Golden Fire Eyes, after breaking open the furnace, he wreaks havoc in the Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor calls together all the immortals to fight against him. Purple Orchid is held in the cave to think about her wrongs, Monkey heads to rescue her, but fails. Monkey is suddenly enwrapped by a whisp of golden light , this is the work of Buddha. Monkey fights against Buddha, but is finally held in his Five-Finger Mountain for five hundred years, the Earth God is instructed to only give him Bronze Juice and Iron Juice to ease his thirst.

    The monks at the Golden Hill Monastery find a baby in a wooden basin floating in the river and the head monk names him Yuen Chong. Yuen Chong is a natural genius and causes a stir in the lead monks who say he has a very strong spiritual instinct. Purple Orchid and Monkey miss each other very much and as Monkey calls out about his boredom, Tai Pak appears and brings him a banana to eat, Monkey feels like he has struck treasure. Tai Pak helps him to brush his fur and tells him about the love that the Empress has shown him and her pain, also he passes on a message from Purple Orchid, Monkey is moved. The Empress’ phoenix hairpin suddenly becomes a demon and flies away, Buddha and Guanyin point out that this is a sign from up above that there is a crisis to come. The Tang Emperor is being bothered by his brother’s spirit and asks for a sign from the oracle, the oracle says that the ghost is in his heart and it is down to cause and effect, to release this he must send someone to the Western Heavens to find the Tai Shing Sutra and this person needs to be able to read the Sanskrit on the precious box and also be born of the right time, when the box is opened then the Ghost and Demon Controlling seal inside will help to hold back the Evil Spirits.
