disappointment in 2011's Journey to the West
>> Friday, June 8, 2012
computer graphics too obvious
Sun Wukong is UGLY
Goddess of Mercy doesn't have the look of Goddess of Mercy
Tang Seng not eye candy
Zhu Bajie looks terrible
the only thing that's good is their cover version of the ending theme song 敢问路在何方 (direct translation: bold to ask where the road is?)
i still prefer 1986 - i consider this to be the first version of the series. Every character looks beautiful to look at (that includes the first Tang Seng). Look, Sun Wukong has golden eyes, fair skin, NEAT golden fur, peachy cheeks, red lips - THIS IS 美猴王 (direct translation: Beautiful Monkey King)!!! Seriously if there's no Liu Xiao Ling Tong as Sun Wukong it's also a big disappointment and a turn-off. i miss the high-pitch thin shrill voice of Sun Wukong cos it really mimics a monkey. Script-wise, very simple but teaches us very much in our hearts
note to producers: please use China's 1986 as character and content reference. The best 西游记 (Journey to the West) ever
