I found this while watching HSDS '09. Just thought I wanted to share. I never thought I'd be able to watch it.
It's Legend of the Condor Heroes 1977 with english subs!

Check out hilarious Jin Yong Adaptations' bloopers!
I seriously do not want to see another NEW TV adaptation of Jin Yong's novels for another 15-20 years. I already have favorites, don't need to make more to ruin it for me.

It's been a while since we mentioned Human Chef.

ROCH '83 Episodes # 38-40 are the most difficult to watch in the entire series. Despite some great action scenes, Yeung Gor and Little Dragon Girl are at their insufferable worst in these episodes.
Anyone know about an older adaptation of Gu Long's Da Ren Wu? I've started the 2007 version and probably won't continue after an episode or two, but I somewhat remember watching an older adaptation of the novel. Anyone know about it?

Thanks, but this one isn't the one I was referring to. I think I remember watching one made from the 80s or so...I think Ng Wai Kwok may have starred in it. Well, from the scene that I did remember was that there was a girl who admired this wuxia hero and had a scroll painting of him. Don't know if that was an old adaptation of Da Ren Wu or another series that happen to remind me of Da Ren Wu. Watched it ages ago...so just wanted to be sure.

I am now working with a protein called Jumonji.
Does that name remind you of a certain wuxia character?

Random fact: I have been to the site where the real Mongke died.

can i really say anything here?
don't know if it is only me or there is someone else who think the same as me,
i really dislike Little Dragon Girl in ROCH in general
i think if there is no such character in ROCH, the story will be much nicer.
yes. yes yes you will
If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
But make allowance for their doubting too;
Hope i am not being abnormal..
in fact i been wishing yeung gor can end up with kwok fu.... don't kill me haha
I sometimes wonder about Huang Rong and Yang Kang ending up together. I think it's in part due to Barbara Yung and Miu Kiu Wai pairing up as lovers in their other dramas (eg: The Foundation, Chor Lau Heung), it could be a bit disconcerting if one's reference point was their LOCH characters.
I'm short on the details, but that was the original plan for the ending of ROCH: Little Dragon Girl was to have been revealed to have actually died when she jumped into Passionless Valley.
I think it would have been a much more fitting ending myself, but Jin Yong didn't dare go through with it; he thought that the audience wouldn't be willing to buy a downer ending.
I think a downer ending works better if it fits the tone of the story, which it would have in ROCH. Its happy ending always felt like a cop-out to me.
