RE: Let's Talk :)


well i gues you can still improve after improving right..its just that many people see this award as a stepping stone for other awards and as the newbie award..tavia has been nominated for the past few years too..

I guess. I'm watching D.I.E. at the moment, and I think Mimi Lo deserves a nomination in the Supporting Category. To me, she's one of the stand outs in the series... I guess she's not very favoured by TVB...

YingYing:
I've never had a blog, but I wish I had started one. Maybe one that I could talk about TVB. But since there's so many TVB blogs nowadays, I guess it's too late to start one. I think I'd rather read blogs than write one myself. I'd probably get too involved with it.

So, what's everyone been doing lately? How's everyone going?

I can't walk at the moment! I was just coming down from the train station yesterday and I saw my bus and it was going to leave soon, so I ran down the flight of stairs from the train station to the bus station. Unfortunately I tripped... and tumbled down the stairs... and broke my ankle. It was dislocated for a while, but it's better now. I was very much swollen yesterday - it was as big an apple! The swollen part I think should be the joint/cartilage (I don't know... I'm not really a doctor). But the swollen has gone down by now, but walking (and the severe pain) is still present. I'd probably be able to start walking (properly) again in a few days (I hope), since I've been using medication...
I hope everyone else's health is fine!

To TVB stuff, I've been watching D.I.E. (no, not really - I watched it a few days ago)... And I've stopped. Not because I found it boring (in fact, I actually like the series a lot), but a lot lately, I've found TVB really boring. Let's just say my 'obsession' or 'love' for TVB has decreased over the past few years...

That sounds awful, AM! Well, I hope you get well soon.

The Drive of Life and Fathers and Sons are playing but I haven't been watching. I'll start watching soon though, I think. I'm currently watching The Four, re-watching Life Made Simple and The New Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber (Tony Leung version).

That's terrible AM. Get well soon.

Fathers and Sons and Phoenix Rising are curretly airing here in canada. I'm just rewatchng Fathers and Sons on tv. Not really watching any of the new series like The Four and Last One Standing. I guess because I'm not much of a person that likes too much fighting or killing in a series basically one reason why I skip some certain ancient tvb series.

Thanks guys :)
I'm really not looking forward to watching The Four. I don't really like the cast. It's basically a bunch of young people, which I don't like because I prefer to watch older actors/actresses or a mixture between both. Plus, I don't usually like those type of series, and I've basically given up on most of TVB's ancient series (though there's not many anyway!). I am looking forward to watching the Silver Chamber of Sorrows (though it's a period drama, but it's close to being an ancient series).

silver chamber of sorrows was disappointing, and really didnt like the cast..i preferred watching the shirley/jack storyline in it though their part was minor..

the four is actually quite good..it's bout solving cases and got to say all the guys act quite well..kate is still bleurgh though..selena's character is good though..very cute..must watch for selena and ray/kenneth/ron/sammul fans..

and hope u get well soon AM!

Oh, really!!?? I was looking forward to it... Hopefully I find it good! (Maybe I'm too influenced by reading TVB Musings...)
By the way, I don't like the Four's themesong... some parts of the songs are good, but it's ruined by Sammul and Kenneth (they did sing in the song, right?)... I don't understand the words, but I can still tell that they're not good singers!
Thanks, YingYing :) I am better now...

I'm not interested in The Silver Chamber of Sorrows, probably because of the time period it is set in. It seems like many people think it was good though (usually I don't like those where many people think it's good).

As for The Four, I think it's alright. It was much more interesting in the beginning, not so much now. I'm ready for the ending.

AM: Yes, all four of them sang the themesong. I think Sammul sounds okay. It's Kenneth (I have to say this even though I'm a fan of his) who can't sing.

I know both Ron and Raymond have 2 lines each... so before the chorus, do Kenneth and Sammul sing a line each? Yeah, it's Kenneth... he sounds really husky and sick (in a negative way).

Okay, what's in blue, green, and red is sung in the themevideo.
Blue is what Raymond sings and green is what Ron sings.
(They split up Ron's part for Raymond and Ron to sing)

Thanks :) I've listened to the song from a full MV, so not sure how it's arranged in the themevideo.

In the MV that I have, Ron sings the Blue and Green lines...
Sammul sang the Guts of Man theme, right? He sounded a lot better back then... And did Kenneth sing the Survivor's Law II theme? I remember he sounded bad in that too.
Also, I think the fact that the song was sing by 4 guys ruined the song. I know TVB wanted ALL four of them to take part, but in the past when this was done, it was a mixture of male and female voices which had better effect. You really don't need 4 male voices in one song, cause the song could have been easily sung by only one. I remember I like Kenneth's singing in the Scavenger's Paradise theme, but maybe it was because he was singing as his character.

Yeah, at first I had lyrics of it that were incomplete and when I listened to the full version of the song, I was like, "What?! Why did they split up Ron's part for Raymond and Ron to sing (in the themevideo)?"

I think TVB should stop making their stars think that they all have talented voices, which they don't!

Sorry, I made a mistake up there. The part in the blue, green, and red was sung in the themevideo.

AM: I posted the pinyin of the full song. The part in the blue, green, and red was sung in the themevideo. Blue was sung by Raymond and green by Ron (in the themevideo). They split up Ron's part - Raymond sings a couple of lines and Ron sings a couple of lines.

Yes, Sammul sang Guts of Man themesong and Kenneth sang Survivor's Law 2 themesong.
At first, I thought Sammul and Kenneth both sung Survivor's Law 2 themesong. They kind of sound the same; it's kind of hard to tell them apart in The Four themesong.

I said "what's in red is sung in the themevideo" because I had highlighted that part in red (including the blue and green) first, then I highlighted the blue and green parts. I was thinking the blue and green parts were still in red.

I wouldn't say his is the worst! But I've never been a fan of Ron's voice.
I just borrowed Burning Flame II off my cousin, so I'll be watching that (instead of D.I.E.)
I also have the Money Maker Recipe and A Journey Called Life, but not currently interested.

I'm not interested in Money Maker Recipe and I've already watched A Journey Called Life. I do want to watch D.I.E. As for BF2, I didn't like that series, but I think I should to re-watch it because I have forgotten a lot about it.

Hey guys, i just finished 3 of my mid terms and now i have 2 more left! It's been so exhausting.
As for TVB series, im currently watching MR & The Four. I rented the first episode of Demigods, but i didn't like it at all so i gave up on it. I'm watching My class or Yours/ Your class or mine, whatever its called on and off since im not a fan of the cast besides Bobby and Sheren.
The four is actually better than i would have imagined, so im quite enjoying it.
I found Money Maker's Recipe to be horrible, so i eventually gave up on that too.
Before, i use to watch every TVB series that came out, whether its good or bad. Lately, i've been more picky and choosy. I gave up on quite a bit of series, though im quite eager to see Last One Standing, hopefully it won't disappoint me.

I watched the money maker recipe was ok wasn't the best wasn't the worst. Actually you should give a journey called life a try it's pretty good. I liked it I didn't think it would be that good from the trailers. I might skip the four and last one standing.

nooo sango..you have to watch both the four and last one standing..both prtty good! actualy come to think about it i think its the best set of series this year because normally when two series come out together, there is always one that is not good..im actually chasing both of them..well i was..last one standing has ended now..gem of life starts =D

The Gem of Life!! I've been excited about this series for a long time... been watching all the trailers and previews lately...
Yeah, I will give A Journey Called Life a try, but maybe not at the moment.

Jenn: Hey, it's nice to see you back! Yeah, I understand what you mean. I'm getty a bit picky now too. I remember in 2005 (when I was a lot more interested in TVB) - I watched every series except When Rules Turn Loose. My aim for the year was to watch every series but I didn't have a chance to watch WRTL... LOL I didn't like the themevideo so I didn't rent it! (I was a bit childish back then...)

I'm excited about Last One Standg too! I've heard nothing but good praise :)

Hey guys, did you hear the news that Gigi is retiring from the entertainment industry. Apparently she wants to help out with her brother's business and take care of her family. It's such a pity considering TVB holds her pretty high now.
Though i have a feeling we will see her again some time in the future after she leaves.

Didn't Gigi already announce that a while ago? I remember I already read it months back...
Glad to see Kenix back, but she does look skinnier (and older) than ever... I think Frankie's starting to look like her younger brother...

Oh, sorry... I knew she said she was retiring from TVB, but didn't know she was retiring from the Entertainment Industry... I didn't really it properly LOL. I just read the article. Let's just be happy that she's finding a new life. I'm sure it is quite tiring to be famous.

apparently the gem of life is going to be her last series..hope this series will make a good last one!! ive started on it now..gigi's called constance in it..quite a pretty name but bit fashionable for 30 year olds in hk i think..not such a great start..just introducing all the characters..

oldest sister maggie siu is sylvia, artist manager
2nd sister gigi is constance, eloped with rocky cheng so dont get along with her mum
youngest sister is ada, jessica, married to Ram Tseung
Wong He plays John Chiang's disiciple and he grew up with the sister

I don't like that name (Constance)... LOL. I always thought Maggie was gonna be named Sophia?
I've stopped watching Burning Flame II (well it is kinda boring, cause I clearly remember all the parts)... and since dad and my sisters are currently watching A Journey Called Life and saying that it's REALLY GOOD... I'll probably start watching it soon.

I don't like the name, Constance, either. I kind of watched the first ep already. I didn't plan on watching it because 80 eps is so long, but I might now since it's Gigi's last series.

I find the name Constance to be quite nice actually, i find it to sound calming and soothing.
Anthony: At first i was kind of skeptical of A Journey Called Life, but it turns out to be one of the better series that i've watched this year. I find it to have a more realistic touch to it than many other series and it was pretty deep/touching. My mom's quite picky and many of the TVB series now adays bores her, but she raves about this series to my aunts and uncles non stop.

I've finished the first 3 episodes of the gem of life online and it's a great series. Yes I found gigi's english name constance quite awkward when I watched the first 2 eps. I'll probably get used to the name afterwards. A lot of stuff happening already with the sister's marriages.

I was just on Wikipedia... not sure if I can trust the site, but there for the Upcoming Anniversary Awards, there's two new categories: "Most Fashionable Charming Artist" and "TVB.com Popular Artist"... I think they're just to replace the "Mainland Most Popular Artist" awards...

Hey :)
I was a little bored, so I was just searching for some TVB-related pics at google...
And I came across this old pic of three TVB actors... So I just wanted to share :)

http://www.mingpaoweekly.com/htm/1918/18wm02j.jpg

It looks like it's from the early 90's... They all look pretty young (and different).
