wong kar-wai gets it

"You’ve been interviewed by AI for the Chinese re-release. What are your thoughts on the use of AI in filmmaking? Will you use it?

Technology is just a tool. AI can replicate, but can it yearn? Can an algorithm understand the weight of a glance between two people who can’t express their feelings? Can code capture the way memory distorts and reshapes our past? These are the questions that interest me, and I don’t think machines have the answers yet."

Another thing I loved about Legends of the Condor Heroes: The Gallants is the time given towards Huang Rong and Hua Zheng's relationship Tsui Hark: Huang Rong is like your modern strong female character. She should have another strong female character whom she can get along with.

Summarizing my thoughts on Legends of the Condor Heroes: The Gallants The way I see it, Tsui Hark made this assuming that the viewer is already familiar with the characters' origin stories and already has some emotional attachment to them. The movie focuses on ch 34-40, skipping a lot of backstory⤵️

15 pages later I finally finished the translation 😅 I love getting to see his growth over the years, seeing how he has really grown into himself and become more self-assured and I love that for him. It feels like we've grown together 🥹 how has it already been 5 years

It's amazing to think that 5 years have passed, and in that time Xiao Zhan has proven that he can endure and continue to grow despite the odds. As I was reading LOCH today, this line, which was told to a young Guo Jing by one of his masters, seemed fitting: "留得青山在，不怕没柴烧."

Repost with a pic that belongs in history books - Xiao Zhan edition ❤️. #XiaoZhan肖战

A side portrait photo of Xiao Zhan in soft lighting, looking down towards the left. His hair is a medium length and styled away from his face with a wisp of hair falling over his forehead. He wears a backless white jacket adorned with trailing beads. The lighting throws soft highlights on his face, leaving the contour of his back muscles in shadow.

Yibo 🥹 "Everytime you undergo a role change, you have to start from 0 again. To learn & to improve. As if you're starting from the base of a new mountain, challenging the summit. It requires both taking the lead & being led. From this a lot can be learned. There is no path that is taken in vain."

In the process of making #WarofFaith, Wang Yang says you could clearly see Yibo's growth as an actor. "From the first day to our last scene together a few months later, he brought Wei Ruolai’s character to life, and I was able to see how quickly his acting improved."
