also I'm sorry but this whole "well what's done is done so we gotta support our faves now" attitude is so wrong…
like the fake ass positivity and the "the damage is done so Im gonna support my faves♡" bs is k!lling me 😭 I wish intl fans were actually haters like cfans and looked at things through a critical lense instead of blindly sprinkling glitters and throwing flowers whenever and wherever gege and jiejie are involved lol
I don't have any other choice but follow que gu Because there is neo just like Glory I'm going to give my all…
okay don't get mad at me, just saying that if I were you I wouldn't support this show if I actually wanted the best for my faves because : yes it's true that he has signed the contract ages ago and has nothing to do with fl's casting, but it doesn't really matter bc at the end of the day, giving the show traction will get passerby attention and they'll end up dragging him into the mess the prod team and another company created as well. Also speaking about morals, no matter how good your intentions in supporting this are, iqiyi and other platforms will take the lack of boycotting and criticism as a green light to do sth like this again and again
Yawn. But no worries, you'll be "offended" by something else tomorrow.And you know what I'm more offended by?…
cdramaville mdl users whenever someone calls out unethical and morally questionable things that happen in dramas or the c-ent industry: you're an idiot it's just a drama you get offended by everything stop bringing negativity here bc the world is rainbows sunshine unicorns why do you hate my faves you're a hater get out of here if you have nothing nice to say stop ruining our beautiful nice amazing drama watching experience and [insert completely random slurs and racially motivated comments about brown people] (y'all might not believe how many times I've seen the last one happening in here lmfao)
I really hope people understand that it's not just abt intimate scenes, casting minors in these kind of shows…
also I'm sorry but this whole "well what's done is done so we gotta support our faves now" attitude is so wrong bc a sane and intelligent person would know supporting sth like this does actually not work in favour of their faves and it'll just do their career a really bad damage when it wasn't even their fault to begin with🤦🏻♀️ at least don't give iqiyi's musty ahh money for this I don't think it's that hard to not do that...
I really hope people understand that it's not just abt intimate scenes, casting minors in these kind of shows is inappropriate and damaging to their mental and physical well-being by nature regardless of intimate romantic scenes and it would still be bad even if her costar was her age...actors constantly talk about how they starve themselves and go on extreme diets before filming costume dramas and it's obviously bc being a celebrity means being doomed to get judged and shit talked about your appearance and body on the internet forever and being under pressure to fit into unrealistic beauty standards by the industry people themselves. That's already bad enough, now imagine someone having to go through all that from their childhood and see how much irreversible damage it's gonna do to them...
So nrta doesn't want queer people, morally gray characters, men wearing earrings and makeup in HISTORICAL FANTASY…
It's also kind of hilarious that they NEVER get the age right lmfao There are dozens of youth dramas made every year and they always cast people pushing 30 as highschoolers in those but when they actually need to cast an adult among the plenty of choices available, they cast children 💀
So nrta doesn't want queer people, morally gray characters, men wearing earrings and makeup in HISTORICAL FANTASY dramas, even mentions of su!cide and bullying for the sake of social commentary. They even censor mentions of periods and sanitary products but have no rules to prevent greedy companies and greedier streaming platforms from taking advantage of kids in the ent industry. Makes so much sense 🤡💖🎀✨️
I'm genuinely in awe everytime people critisize SY's looks and say she looks old bc this girl has the face of a beauty from Chinese cinema's golden ages like she would've been THAT girl in wong kar wai movies..also watching too many dramas and not going outside to see what people really look like has so many people's brains completely rotten
obsessed with how jlfx always subverts common gender cliches and tropy dynamics in her novels....begger fl + lazy cultivator ml is already making me squeal with excitement
Jingyi is not only a good actress, but a very intelligent girl with the way she's always picking scripts that have beautiful social commentary and thought provoking themes beneath the pretty "idol drama" looks and cute romance. Reborn's rating in here is kind of a joke tbh considering how many crappy costume idol dramas get 8.5+ ratings just bc they're edgy lol...Reborn is much, much better than L&P imo but bc it addresses serious issues, people who only watch for the romance get impatient with it🤦🏻♀️
Don’t come for me, but I’m not sure about Wang An Yu in a historical drama. I loooove him in modern dramas…
to be fair he has had terrible luck with historical dramas 😭 he's been in 2 so far and those have been really bad in terms of production and writing so...
Btw if anybody has ever lived in mainland china and knows ways to have access to international platforms when the Internet gets limited to national only network, please dm me.
