Kind of like the idea of, you know, when you're doing isekai jump runs, one of them you land in a JRPG world, so you make a guild, and then when you pack up your guild and land in a wuxia world, you make a sect there instead

Every time I go back to the Mummy movie with the Dragon Emperor, I get more disappointed and disgusted by it. Portraying the Emperor as a tyrant because he used military force for conquest, but that's what everyone did and still do. Ziyuan cheated on him for his lackey, even today, if you're the boss, your wife cheats on you with your driver, what do you do? Lmao turns into a DND tiamat, not a 龙, wtf is this shit
Sun Wukong's 72 transformations are not actually forms but 72 magical powers, but Bodhi offered him either 72 earthly transformations or 36 heavenly transformations, being a monkey, thinking the bigger number is better, he didn't realize that the latter 36 was more potent, but he was looking for immortality, which was in neither, but he didn't learn this lesson until much later, much like all life lessons
You know the recurring problem that has always been minor but keeps growing with these idol dramas is that they're all dubbed, like, at first people made fun of the actors being unable to memorize lines and just kept saying "1231231" on set and then getting voiced over in post, actors not even speaking good mandarin, but these days, the voice actors don't even sound like the actors, like an aunt voicing a loli
An easy measure of the quality of a wuxia fanfic writer is the Golden Basin scene, where the Songshan Sect people threaten Liu Zhengfeng with his family members to find Qu Yang. A shit writer would just fight them. A mid writer would bring out the Imperial Court to deter them. An okay writer would point out this is against the Jianghu rules; meaning they can kill their families too
The Chinese entertainment stories where the MC goes over to California/Hollywood to make dollars and gain international fame to gain superiority in China always have the male MCs fuck/sell himself to various Democrat party leaders there, like as if by having them means easy access to Oscars or whatever, but if having connections alone is enough and talent/skill isn't needed, then Amy Schumer
I feel like all the people writing Condor Heroes fanfics only watched the (one of the many iterations that became the) show, or even only watched the show-summary in short video form, instead of reading the books, because they all think Guo Jing is a "patriotic and selfless" hero
but in the novel, it was Huang Rong, who was taught to be patriotic by her dad, who got them both killed in Xiangyang
"Mine is very big, you should just endure it."
"Big? This toothpick? Are you giving me acupuncture?"

I just think, you know, if Imu looks like Princess Vivi, and they cast such an ugly Princess Vivi, then, in like twenty years when Netflix actually gets to current One Piece, they'll have to use such an ugly Imu
People misunderstand Xuanwu Gate Incident, thinking that in ancient times you can use 800 soldiers to revolt and succeed the throne; back then everyone in power had fought beside Li Shimin for years, liken to his VC investors, and using 800 was all he needed to kill his brother, because it's like he already had the "senate" and "cabinet" on his side, he was just leaving his father some face
There's like tiers of ignorance to these entertainment genre stories;
entry level the writers who think MC will get all of a movie box office, after taxes, fees, etc.
then they think TV profits come faster than movies, and movies higher tier
next level think singers have simple 5/5, 6/4, 7/3, etc. share with labels
pro just realize props, meals, etc. can skim off the top multiple times
So how did 魔術師 get translated as "magus" in the first place? Isn't this just magician...
These entertainment industry genre stories that add cheat elements, like taking movie props and turning them into downgraded but real items, seem fine, but instead of using, like, their fucking 2060's AI to help them make a tech empire... the protagonist just keeps making TV shows and movies, wtf, how retarded is this author
These "apocalypse yaoi" genre stories with idol elements, as most shows tend to do these days, is really weird, like if this is the framework for the story to build on, then you might as well just end it right there, right, since humanity is going to end anyway
"I am a mermaid princess, under the cover of night, I sneak onto land and enter that human's house, and while it is dark and he sleeps soundly, I play with his phone!"
"So you're the reason for the 20 consecutive losses on my account?!"
Oda drew such a pretty Princess Vivi with glasses in the recent SBS, but the new Netflix Princess Vivi looks so ugly...
Entering the stage of realizing that the stories where the MC is in a perpetual state of bewilderment demeans the reader's intellect, suspense and cliffhangers be damned.
阿汤哥, Big Brother Soup, is the name for Tom Cruise.

And then Biigoh became capital

Honey trap isn't a seductive Bond girl from Russia or wherever seducing you, it's that loving girl marrying you, staying with you for years, and then they kill you, she inherits everything, marries the stand-in driver, who is actually one of theirs
I used to like 长歌行 a lot, especially the art style, but the more I read the historical records, the more I feel it's too contrived, like if it was fantasy, like King Arthur, then it's fine, but if it's historical fiction, it's, like, saying Lincoln hunted vampires or whatever
Smallgoh
Why is Magcargo fire and rock type when the real life basis, the Chrysomallon squamiferum, has an iron shell and eats iron and clearly should be steel type?
Recently, a lot of Chinese writers tend to write anal for some reason, and it's always about how her butt hurts the day after it whatever, so annoying
is drinking too much tea bad
The entertainment industry here sure has some tones of darkness, well, I mean, it's nothing like how there's Eyes Wide Shut shit over across the ocean, but you know, there's still people gifting people to each other, like the Weinstein stuff, for example -
