I didn't know about it until just now. I'm very sorry to hear him past away. I liked him in several James Bond films. He will be missed indeed. :(
Yeah well, can we get back on topic. Also we haven't found out why Chinese films struggle to get audiences overseas while Korean TV dramas and K-pop are doing way better at this.
It's probably cheap because the film retail price depreciate over time. Let the bullet fly came out in 2010 in China. So 6 years later the price would depreciate. It's the same for all movies...
Well regarding Japanese stuff, yeah I will agree beside anime's quality has been on the decline. Also it's been reported a few years ago how Japanese companies are not on par like they used to in...
Thank you, that's enough evidence for me. Also, as I stated many Korean (and Taiwanese) TV dramas that got popular in the US and around the world are romantic comedies and they are the most popular...
As I said, I haven't watch enough non-Kung fu/non action cinema from China to give enough assessment. Also I notice a lot of Chinese films that don't get US or international release outside of...
I've been reading up more information about Chinese films not gaining acceptance amongst US mainstream, When I read this something doesn't make sense to me, I'm going to quote this:
So let me...
I see so you never branch out to other genre in Chinese film and never bother watching any new or recent release coming out China, Taiwan, or Hong Kong.
Ah I see where you're getting at. I think I understand where you're getting at. Thank you for clarifying that for me.
So I take it you never watch some new release stuff coming out of China...
Well, thank you for your input. Other then being "hollow", are there any other reasons or problems you had with Chinese cinema that might explain why they're struggling to get overseas/international...
Hm, I see. So whatever you said about why you don't like non-Kung fu cinema from Mainland China would that be the same reason why many Kung fu and HK action cinema fans never branch out to other...
I don't watch enough non Kung Fu/non-period and non-action cinema from China to give my thought on this. But if what you said about Chinese films contain nationalistic tone is true. That maybe...
We've brought up about how Kung fu genre is dead or dying or losing it's global relevence. But it goes beyond that. I found out that Chinese films overall regardless of what genre is struggling...
For me, before K-dramas, I used to watch a lot of Kung fu dramas from TVB (well they were dubbed in Vietnamese, I had to have my Mom translate and tell me what's going on). But like K-dramas today,...
OK, so you have seen K-dramas before. That's good to know, there are a lot of Kung fu film fans that aren't aware of these TV dramas from Korea, and Hong Kong. So I'm glad to see there are fans of...
Glad I could help, I hope TVB's 1980 dramas could get pick up for streaming, those are the best and the golden year of TVB Kung fu TV dramas. BTW, a quick question: Do you watch Korean dramas? If...
Yes, I'm watching that show on Hulu courtesy of Dramafever (the same website responsible for bringing numerous ton of Korean TV dramas to the US audiences). Grace Under Fire is not the only TV drama...
Well you 2 have a good taste in Korean films. There's a lot more Korean film out there. I managed to watch several Korean films for free on Hulu. So I agree they are kinda neat and attractive. ...
Thank you, I thought people on this forum needed to know that.
Yes, it's sad I missed that era of HK films where it was cool and way over the top. I wish Hong Kong could come up with...
Yep, I've been anticipating this film since it's announcement. Can't wait to watch this. For those of you that want to get behind the scene. Arirang TV's Showbiz Korea has some exclusive inside...
I stumbled upon this thread and I wanted to give my input (hence why I register an account). I also want to apologize if I necro-post, but I think you need to know this. I've been a long time Kung...
