    Am impressed by the costumes designs and props. They looked like things I wanted to play with when I was a kid, clothes I wanted to wear. You can see the animal tail on Huo Du meant to appeal to little kids, but eye-catching to adults like me nevertheless. I just hope they look as good on screen and not in still photos only...

    BTW, I was 9 when I watched the Andy Lau version. Looks like the demographics of this adaptation for around 12 years old, which is perfect as Condor Heroes should be....

    As everyone is gathering for the great festival and since they're calling this the new version of the condor heroes, I have been thinking if perhaps they should focus this version more on the bonding of siblings like the relationship between Guo Phu, Guo Xiang, and Guo Fhou Lou? Since in the many previous versions, their relationship was kind of sour especially between Guo Phu and Guo Xiang.

    Perhaps they can make it so that in this version to show how much awesomely wonderful Guo Phu can be as older sister to Guo Xiang and Guo Fhou Luo. I mean look at how sibling bonding are of very importance to the Yang General Saga then shouldn't the Guo also be the same?

    Since some of you guys would like for Hu Ge to be as Yang Guo. Shouldn't he also be as Yang Guo look alike Yang Kang? That would make him play as two heroic Yang Character and one misguided villain Yang Kang.



    I sure hope they can make the CGI graphic in this new version to be as great as possible especially if Guo Jing will battle with Jin Lun Guo Shi with the awesome Xiang Long Shi Ba Zheng vs Loong Xhiang Pan Roe Gong. What do you guys think?

    Symbolism in Condor Heroes:

    Does any1 know y JY chose 16 years as the duration till YG + XLN reunite?

    JY was prob member of some secret society. How else we explain every one of his work contains some secret factions?

    Anyways, there r secrets u learn in these societies not revealed to commoners.

    So, 16 can't be some arbitrary number. Like Sun Wukong was struck on the head 3 times to mean midnight, here's my take:

    4x4 = 16
    Time when YG + XLN reunite

    So, 16 years till reunion means the time when two four's (each 4 is a Yin + Yang, 4x4) combine...

    There's only one thing in this universe that fits this description:

    4-pointed shape (Yang) + 4-pointed shape (Yin) combine

    Tada!!! The 4x4 = 16 shape...

    I think much more likely, it was to accommodate Gwok Seung needing to be sixteen years old during the final phase of the story.

    16 = the union of male + female tetrahedron...

    GX = 16 y/o as an extra easter egg. Wut we get when male + female meet? We get a baby. 16=when male+female meet + 16 y.o. "baby"...

    That is JY's ultimate joke! Things don't come in pairs, there is the holy trinity!!! The father (YG) + "son"/child (GX) + holy spirit/"mother" (XLN)!

    I'm pretty sure JY studied a Chinese version of the Bible coz in the Bible full of stuff like "for I am weak (one armed) then I am strong(est) warrior". So IMO JY used 16 repeatedly in RoCH as a sort of reference to the holy trinity explained above...

    Reposted from Thoughts on China Banning Palace Dramas thread...

    _________

    I finally realized why I subconsciously like RoCH more than LoCH.

    But first, the premise:

    There is an entire chapter in the Bible devoted to numbers. So we know numbers have an important place in higher societies, even in China.

    Jin Yong repeated used the number 9 a lot. So let's see the 9 in his first part work LoCH.

    Guo Jing is actually Sagittarius, the ninth astrological sign:

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6a/Sagittarius2.jpg')

    9 is the number of the Emperor. Well guess what, China just banned Palace dramas, which leaves us with...

    The one handed warrior:

    One hand = big thumb + 4 little fingers:

    $this->handle_bbcode_img_match('http://chinafilminsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/Wolf-Warriors-2-China-1024x640.jpg')

    LoCH is the story of number 9 (Sagittarius/Emperor) whereas RoCH is the story of number 5 (one hand/Buddha's palm/Chinese flag):

    (Boils down to which is more awesome God or Sagittarius?...)

    Kaypang stopped posting updates. No news on movie(s) by Hark Tsui either.

    I think the producer wants to time the TV version teaser releases when Hark Tsui makes Condor Heroes have the most hype...

    The costume drama "ban" version 2 (during MAR or APRIL 2019) had a few new points highlighted because version 1 was not followed by the TV stations


    1) 60/40 ratio quota between costume vs modern era TV drama ... i forgot which is which

    2) do not post "teaser trailers" or promote online before the drama pass censorship board approval and confirmed timeslot with TV station



    literally point 1 cause a major traffic jam as the TV stations have their slots filled up in the immediate future , probably into late 2019 or early 2020

    those drama production teams are encouraged to switch to filming modern genre as there is now an artificial demand created , it takes time and if there isn't enough "modern" to fill the quota then the "ancient" cannot appear on TV
