射雕英雄传

I used like three days to complete 50 episodes of the new 射雕英雄传.
The duration for each episode is almost an hour each.
So if i slept for eight hours on average for the three days,
The remaining 16 hours were glued on the screen!!! Haha.



I don't know about the classic edition in 1983 since I wasn't even born then. But this edition is much better then that of 1994 by Athena Chu and Julian Cheung Chi Lam, and definitely better then the boring edition in 2003 by Faye Wong's husband and Zhou Xun. This edition is a drama with the combination of love and wuxia components, and it became so "偶像剧" style! Haha. And I love the 蓉儿 in this edition since 林依晨 was the one acting in it, just that she didn't really portrayed the "evil" part of 蓉儿 that well. 东邪黄药师, as well as the 北丐洪七公 portrayed their characters very well though, with the former having this charisma, and the latter being so righteous and upright that was described in 金庸's actual novel. But the scriptwriter have changed the novel so much that there isn't any antagonists in the show. Even 杨康, 欧阳克 were all good people who 重情重义, and this the part I really can't stand. But still I would recommend this to those 金庸 fans. =)
