Wind and Cloud really didn’t cut it out
December 16, 2009
Every once in a while you get to experience something so drastically life changing that it leaves you totally speechless and perpetually dismayed for the rest of your life, somehow it makes you feel like you could vomit, have diarrhoea and h1n1 all at the same time. It’s one of those experiences that will always be lodged in the back of the never to be opened vault in your mind but in all unfortunateness, there will come and time when it comes back to haunt you.
It’s times like these when you sit back and realise that life is indeed worth living for, and you strive to make up for that 2hrs and $6 you lost along the way. It makes you wanna get up and see things in a different light, take a chance, take a dump or even listen to The Jonas Brothers.That’s what Storm Warriors a.k.a Feng Yun II did to me.
For me, it was a case of just reminiscing the 2hr drama version i watched on ch8 in the past, now back then, that was really cool, the swashbuckling effects and lame ass old storyline worked out well for the great drama. Seriously Aaron Kwok and gang should just be sued for tainting the name of such a legendary piec
e of chinese culture.
Some -ve pointers to note.
1.) It’s draggy, reaaally draggy. For a 1hr50min show, it seems like the script is all of 50 pages long, and each scene compromises of real cut short pieces of dialogue that are said in that whole immersive thinking way that emperors and old man kung fu masters do.
2.) The girls were redundant, their lines were basically. “Feng Da Ge” “Yun Da Ge ” and a few lines of like “ How are you ” “Why have you turned evil” “We must rescue him”. Seriously, it makes me wonder how did the audition even go. I bet i could write the script
Wind manages to counter Cloud’s dancing blade skill and blasts him with Ice Wind Sword into the background leaving him battered and bruised. Chun Chun arrives in the nick of time
Chun: Big brother Cloud, Big Brother Cloud what happend to you
Cloud: …….
Chun: Big Brother Cloud, Big Brother Cloud!!!
Chun Chun stands up to confront Wind
Chun: Big Brother Wind, have you turned evil? Why have you turned evil? Why? Why? Why….
3.) Nicholas Tse is downgraded to some gay looking son of the evil guy
4.) They effectively killed any remote solice of a storyline by cutting away into worthless fighting with no meaning. Dragon bone what happend to you?
5.) The ending, the ending, the ending. Officially most ” i want to make sure peopel come for the 3rd sequel ” ending in a movie. Period.
Seriously the show deserves a negative, everyone who was involved should just spend the rest of their lives giving back their time to the community just because it wasted everyone money and apparently not that bad of a life.
Another tainted and destroyed imagine of a favourite show of mine. Seriously, i need to stop watching adaptations.
