😱😱😱 北美 HBO, 很神勇的放映這兩部片。。 --- **長城： 中國國內自己都看不下去的東西，張藝謀能搞出全球認證且浪費時間的神奇藝術創作，確實不簡單。。😴😴😴 重金搞來三個歐美大腕重磅，外帶個跑龍套的老劉德華，就為了繼續撐那個莫名其妙的景甜？？ 🤢🤮 中古世紀的流通語言根本就不是英語，是拉丁語，至少也該是法語或西班牙語。十字軍戰士也不會跑到汴梁找趙小弟弟玩耍。。🤒 重點是，長城是不會繞個近圓狀的。。 #土豪浪費錢的方式也太霹靂了吧？？ #高空彈跳殺敵簡直白癡到極 #山海經會哭死 #有錢任性讓全球批爛也是要有勇氣的 #一昧崇洋媚外是不會有好結果的 **通靈少女：非常”台”，台到不知道該說啥。。 台到看那英文字幕後我才知道我的英文很爛。。 我想那本土西洋人應該會完全理解劇情的。。 而且看字幕的速度應該也很能適應吧？？ 看了兩集，就看不下去了。。 😪 臺灣宮廟的文化，是臺灣環境的反射。當這劇組還在用台式戲劇處理方式時，這東西是走不出亞洲的。。 因為日本與南韓的戲劇處理，比台灣細膩多了。甚至一些平常公視的戲劇，拍攝的也比這通靈少女高段多了。 對歐美市場來說，妳沒在前兩集內容時吸引觀眾，就是絕路了。。☠️ 通靈少女前兩集，非常，沒有創意，也沒有吸引繼續觀看的誘因，至於後面有沒有突發的劇情，已經不重要了。。因為根本不想浪費時間了。⌛️ 想起當時在台灣播出時，全台網路上一片紅火，連台灣島主都稱讚～～ 因為：台灣首次有 HBO ASIA 的投資。😶 So, 是因為戲劇真的好看？還是因為有西洋團隊合作？？？ 這題材確實是有發展空間，但，這個劇真的拍的好嗎？？ 真的有把台灣宮廟文化點綴出來嗎？？ 應該沒有吧？ 拍攝的，還跳脫不出台式戲劇邏輯，也沒有吸引外國人對其文化的好奇心。 就像每隔一陣子就會有類眷村題材的戲劇一樣，”讓人回味記憶”而已。「懷舊」，才是台灣戲劇無法向外發展的限制。 且怪的是，連懷舊都拍不好。🤫 這通靈少女，只是將「靈媒」灌入了「懷舊」戲劇模式。 ==== 西元二千年的臥虎藏龍，拿到西方世界的最高榮譽，成就了李安。 但自那以後，華人世界的戲劇，根本是一落千丈，越拍越離譜。。(李安本身也不是臺灣培育出來的就是。) 中國是錢花的越多，拍攝的越爛；連找洋人領航都沒用，編劇的創意沒法突破，自然拍攝不出好劇。尤其是根本...

🎬📺📽🎞  FYI: Streaming Wars & Cord-Cutter。原創戲劇戰爭。 === 🎭 一個加州矽谷的科技巨變，搞的整個 Hollywood 與傳統電視營運商十多年來的落寞。。到現在只能同流合污，或者被 迫加入一個毫不熟悉的戰場。。 改變了消費者習性的 Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, 網路串流媒體。 https://en.wikipedia.or g/wiki/Streaming_media 電視費用，越來越貴，包山包海包網路，平均一個月一兩百塊美金， 三四百的頻道，然後，都沒在看。。 📡💸💸💸 不管是衛星電視，或是有線電視，對當今的美國消費者來說，都，可 以砍掉了。。。 因為，太貴又無用。 又別說，Comcast, Time Warner 等有線電視，啥的費用都“灌水”。。 想看的都沒有，不想看的一堆堆。 精算的年輕消費者，早就砍掉了一筆無用的花費，走向串流的世界。 。 7/28/17 More people are cutting the cord and dumping pay TV http://for.tn/2v6Y7J9 8/16/17 Consumer suit against Comcast over $1B in TV,  sports fees can advance, judge says http://www.philly.com/philly/b usiness/comcast/comcast-consum er-1-billion-suit-tv-sports-fe es-20170816.html   然，妳，還放不開那，傳統的戲劇模式嗎？離不開那每個月多付 $20-$30 的，亞洲電視？？？ 歐美的媒體網，已經變成 Contents wars, 誰擁有獨門的戲劇，誰就是贏家。。 HBO 模式，已被 Netflix Original 給擊破，“原創劇”，正在歐美開始拉開大戰。。 世界上，只有一個 Disney (迪士尼)，一個 Star Wars (星際大戰), 一個 LOTR (魔戒)。 一個，GoT (權力的遊戲 - 冰與火之歌)  http://w...

Les Misérables [悲惨世界] - a circle of history. -- Les Misérables 悲惨世界 ** It's the note I intended to post a few months back, but seems in time for its new movie fame... also recent tragedies around the world.. C'est le temps de la vie , qui cirulate tout le temps .   Miserable life, exist everywhere, yet, when you look at it, its 'miserables', is repetitive throughout history.     Les Misérables by Victor Hugo, is, no doubt, one of the best novel in the world, not only it touches people but deep into humanity, the righteousness one must decide while living, on this miserable world...   -- On an interesting note: the musical created in French, yet populate by English act, finding original French version of it, is bit difficult w/o iTune.    Les misérables (Paris, Thèâtre Mogador 1991) ---   How miserable is miserable??     I'm pretty sure everyone can list things that they feel miserable about, in this modern era. Howeve...

I See the Light Lyrics From Tangled (Mandy Moore and Zachary Levi) All those days Watching from the windows All those years Outside looking in All that time Never even knowing Just how blind I’ve been Now I’m here Blinking in the starlight Now I’m here Suddenly I see Standing here It’s oh, so clear I’m where I’m meant to be And at last, I see the light And it’s like the fog has lifted And at last, I see the light And it’s like the sky is new And it’s warm and real and bright And the world has somehow shifted All at once Everything looks different Now that I see you All those days Chasing down a daydream All those years Living in a blur All that time Never truly seeing Things the way they were Now she’s here Shining in the starlight Now she’s here Suddenly I know If she’s here It’s crystal clear I’m where I’m meant to go And at last, I see the light And it’s like the fog has lifted And at last, I see the light And it’s like the sky is new And it’s warm and real and bright And the world ...

周雨綢 - 後山日先照 -- 後山日先照 http://blog.udn.com/agnes0512/1270106 Tudou Video : 後山日先照 “先生娘知道自己即將離開人世，她赤腳踩在土地上，半夜對天、對地、對祖宗點上清香，全家人看著此舉摸不著頭緒，直到來旺的母親看見她赤腳時，忍不住道出：「這是謝神啊！」” “送阿公上天做仙” 先生娘親眼目睹自己的先生死在外省兵的槍下，親耳聽到自己先生囑咐自己兒子先救來旺。當陳北印握著她的手說：「我不能再陪妳吃百二，這個家以後就靠妳了，我是多麼幸運的娶到妳…」死在先生娘的懷裡，她冷靜的指揮所有人處理後續，直到耕土幫她暖床，發現原來阿嬤只能一個人晚上偷偷的哭… --- 應該把書找來看看才是。。 不過可能還不太好找的樣子。。 電視劇的話，應該還是沒法拍出那意境韻味。 只看了一集，大概知道那靈魂重點就是在張美瑤演的周雨綢身上，相似於歸亞蕾在滄海百年的林家老夫人角色。 家族，向來是華人所重視的。。 傳承與延續，都是備受重視的。。 但，要有本事延續的。。也不多吧。。。 能承受生命中的無奈還能轉，轉危為安，繼而延續，確實是一種被迫的本能。。想學，也學不來的。。 或許，跟天生的本性也有些許的關係吧。。 氣度與大局，那，是該在男，或女的身上為佳呢？？ 主心骨，其實，也不是那麼容易當的。。

Beauty & the Beast (1991) Diamond Editon Oct. 5, 2010!!!

Natural Aristocracy --- John Adams, the lesser known founding father of U.S., VP of G. Washington twice and 2nd President of U.S. Kennedy family, well known through the tragedies of JFK and RFK, this week, by the passing of the last brother, Teddy... All of them originated from Massachusetts, a coincident or what? Each politicians, I believe, sought to come up to the stage with a heart to do the righteousness for the public, yet, how many of them, once in power, stood by their original goal and serve the needed? That is the questions each public figure should ask themselves everyday. It's easy to loss oneself in the circle of power, not to mention the luring of powerful monies. -- As I watched Teddy's last memorial since last night, I just can't kept felt sorry for him... each of the family tragedies just lays heavy burdens on his shoulder, and yet, he carry them through, not only for his family, but also turn it into energies to aid others in needs. That is wh...

Somewhere out there. -- Somewhere out there, there's a hope, a hope among us that, some day, there will not have any disasters around the world, a hope that each ethnic group can live without chaos or arguments. Some day, each individual will realize, realize that step on top of others isn't the best way to work around things... harmonic society isn't a dream, utopia is not a mirage... All of these may come, in time, when each individual is, weak enough, suffer enough, and walk enough, from bottom of the Earth... A dream may come, when, we let go of us... -TT --

A Walk to Remember -- An '02 Movie by Mandy Moore and Shane West; I actually had this dvd and tv recorded file for couple years, yet just never really want to watch it... probably I just refuse to get into it, though it's a somewhat typical romance movie, just that the release time back then, wasn't my prime at all... Love, is, arbitrally, by sets of condition or backgrounds, never a fixed value to it; thus, the fun per se... Even since mid '01, my path of it, closed... With the closed door, I observed more and aware of a lot of things that made life what it is. Honest to say, the closed door actually gave me more knowledge than I ever want... which, to these days, I do not which is better... "Love is like a wind, never sees it, but can feel it"... In life, what many of us want is actually the opposite... did we lost the ability to feel? I'm more incline to say yes, especially with modern education and society norms. Path to wonderland, i...

Wimbledon '08 Interestingly woke up early around 6am today, was wondering what's wrong w/ it and realize it's the final between Nadal and Federer on this breakfast on Wimbledon Sunday... Funny thing is that as I watched first two sets where Nadal is strong, a stupid rain delay paused the action... I just dose off to sleep in front of the TV... just when I thought I missed the end two hours later, they still in the 5th set and... another rain delay... Dude, that first rain delay saved Fedex from quick ending... otherwise Nadal would have won already... well, he should won last year as well... =p Nadal, just like a boxer or Spanish bull, full of energy, my eyes was with him ever since '04, now he finally achieve what he deserved, now let's work on the hard court and win some U.S. open.. ^_^ Fedex, I don't know... he's good, just don't like him that much for some reason... but his skills are good, no doubt.. his serving sets are often quick and ea...
