    because tian long ba bu 2019 had 2 big shot as financial backing.

    Ray Lui as producer
    Yu RongGuang as director

    Could even pay Yuen Cheung Yan (the beggar character in Kungfu hustle) to act sweeper monk.
    Can see how rich they are.

    personally, i dont really care on pretty girls or handsome men.

    Soild acting, better script and better action choreography are more important in long term aspect.

    Looks is in the eyes of the beholder, so there's no solid answer to that.

    That aside, I'm not liking the murky color tone of this one. Slow mo looks even more overused.

    But we shall see when the series is out.

    Actually, I read an article a while back that this series has been in production secretly for quite some time. Probably even before ROCH. Only this was announced after. So it make sense to have a trailer out already.

    Hope so. But i feel a good action choreographer is still very much needes.

    Action choreographer Yuen wooping's brother Yuen CheungYan was cast as sweeper monk.

    I hope Mr Yuen will be the drama's action choreographer.

    The Yuen brothers choreographed the 90s first version of Water Margin. Those fight scenes are still classics, clean cut and beautiful till this day.

    Any picture of Xixia Princess and her maid (wife to be of DY)?

    An OT thought came to me this morning after watching HSDS. Initially, I do not understand why JY change the third edition storyline whereby DY married a maid of Xixia Princess. Would it be due to XZ in HSDS (supposedly a maid too)?
    Just like Hua Zhen and ZM story which Ken first suggested.

    Maybe that's why in the latest adaptation, DY only marry MWQ and HL but not the maid Xiao Lei. Not sure who he will marry in this adaptation.
    Looking forward to a better fighter in MRF in this adaptation and less dependent on his cousin WYY for pointers. In previous series, he seems to lose to XF easily.

    Interestingly, find this HSDS song to be very suitable for the three brothers in this series too.
