MTC by Croton - The Crap Version MTC by Hollywood (I really think they gonna make those movies) - The Lame Version MTC by Tencent (live action TBA?!?!) - The Good Version ?!?!
Dream cast for movie version:
Wu Jing as Su Mo (Wu Jing may be a superstar right now, but he ain't such a cool dude if he won't take on smaller projects like MTC, plus will help with box office) Yang Chao Yue as Bai Ying (Zhao Wei is the only girl I thought was pretty in C-ent but she's like 40's now, Li Qin near hit, next beauty after Zhao Wei must be YCY)
HURRY TENCENT, go GET THEM!!!!Apparently, some studio in the West trying to do to this IP what they are doing…
As I've been saying multiple times, this IP is REDDDDD HOTTTTTTT for movie making. Any company (already) exposed to it and opt to skip the movie version made a really dumb move!
Wolf Warrior II is China's Terminator (I must rescue John Connor erm I mean Dr. Chen) Battle at Lake Changjin is China's Avatar (Avatar is a war movie set on a distant planet) MTC CAN BE China's The Matrix (it's got all the kool elements to pull of a Matrix clone Chinese style!!!!!)

Via Google translate:
"Twin Cities" is the first in the Cangyue fantasy novel "Mirror" series (currently a total of six books). Jupiter Ascends special effects producer Danny Bergeron and The Matrix executive producer Andrew Mason will be involved in the film's production. The filmmakers will use Western actors, plan to start filming of "Twin Cities" as soon as next year, and release it the following year, and intend to develop this novel series into an English-language series."
Com'on Tencent, you are releasing your own version of Three Body Problem (to compete with the NetFlix/Western version). You should do the same for MTC. Those lame projects from Hollywood need someone to teach them how to do things properly!!!
Apparently, some studio in the West trying to do to this IP what they are doing to the Three Body Problem. They're gonna release in 2023 MTC starring Western actors. Here is the source:
I don't know if this is a "NetFlix" series or movie, but I know it ain't good. They're gonna destroy this IP like Disney destroyed live action Mulan. Tencent better act quick, develop and release a competing product!! Only have 1 year to do it because the one above is slated to screen in 2023!!
The Douban ratings finally came out: 3.9/10 (booooo!!!!!)(Don't believe? Here is the URL: https://www.douban.com/search?q=%E9%95%9C%C2%B7%E5%8F%8C%E5%9F%8E)I…
BTW, guys you see the animated version done by Tencent? It's very highly rated compared to the crap Croton churned out (scroll down on link in above post where anime got 7.x/10 and that is a proper Tencent production). Croton ruined a very interesting IP. Hope Tencent can make up for it by making a remake (live action) or perhaps a movie!
I suspect Croton paid/bribed Douban not to release the ratings until very much later. Ratings for ALP came out very soon but M:TC took weeks. There is foul play involved. Croton isn't as honest a company as Tencent!
Anyways, remember ALP? Started off 4.x/10 then slowly climbed up to 5.x/10. M:TC most of the episodes already aired, be lucky if it broke high 4.x/10.
M:TC the first drama I ever like dropped dropped after Ep10 for it being crap quality drama. And at least I watched ALP and SSS to the very end last episode!
First 10 minutes of The Autumn Ballad way better than all the 10 episodes of M:TC I've watched so far. My day is made! Croton gives China such a poor international image. Conjures up impression of shoddy workmanship... I'm not normally into Ballad type of work/genre but I need something to wash away the bad taste in my mouth left from 10 excruciating episodes of M:TC.
Lol, I tried to resume episode 11 after 2 week hiatus. I still cannot take how crappy the drama is. It's subpar crap designed to milk money from TV channels. I'm disappointed Tencent let the IP slipped thru their hands. They're the only company capable of doing justice to this work of art, not this crap made by Croton!!
I don't know about that...Crappy Chinese dramas already exist on WeTV. It makes no difference if they add one…
Name a crappy show on WeTV shown recently. I dare you to say You Are My Glory, Douluo Continent, ALP, SSS are crappy TV shows because the visuals and story telling rival a lot of shows coming out of America!
M:TC rivals shiet coming out of America. Even mundane shows like Supergirl beats M:TC hands down.
WeTv has crappy dramas, actually 😀 Even recently I watched one, well overall it was weird but fun, but in the…
You just proved my point. WeTv for international audience Tencent Video for China audience. Tencent Video doesn't care about ppl who watched Western Tv shows held to much higher quality standards
Guys, I will answer your questions why M:TC does not appear on WeTV:
The way to think of it is that if a drama releases in China, it only has to compete with other (potentially) crappy mainland dramas. But if it gets released on WeTV, which is the international branch of Tencent, it then has to compete with Western dramas too! No way something like M:TC, with crappy CGI, crappy editing, crappy filmography, crappy screenplay is competitive with any TV show from the West!
Yeah I know you find M:TC with ENG subs on other ENG-based websites like Viki Youtube, etc. But those sites don't have an international image/reputation to maintain. Tencent does!
Just let it be fuel for your imagination, it's not like a movie you go see at the Theaters.
Not a movie you go see at theaters?!?!? Are you for real? Have you seen Sword Snow Stride? CGI pets that looked and acted so real I wanted to reach out and touch them. Also Xu Fengnian riding on lake turtle... I couldn't believe I was seeing that kind of SFX in a TV series! That's Tencent magic for ya, they are the de facto CGI powerhouse of China. This M:TC looked so lame in SFX when u put side by side any Tencent production!
Hello, does anyone know why is this drama series not on WeTV?
It's not true. WeTV is Tencent international reputation. One bad drama (with crappy script/CGI) will destroy the reputation Tencent worked so hard to build. The ones that don't show up on WeTV don't meet quality control for global audience.
BTW, if you ever watched Super Mario Bros 3 on YT, Japan got a very crappy release of the game. They had to polish it up a lot to release in North America so the global version of SMB3 nothing like the Japanese version. Same thing this Croton drama only suitable for China release not global audience!
Just think of WeTV as an automatic quality filter. Dramas that don't release there not worth watching! This Tencent is a big big China company that actually cares about its global image...
Croton not the right producer for this IP. The airships look so lame (compared to anime version). What bugs me the most is the same (very crappy) CGI techniques used in 3L3W are used here. Every scene with CGI in the drama makes me cringe because it looked like some kid who got access to Photoshop did the effects, not a professional CGI studio!
If you follow the plot closely, you’ll know SuMo was possessed in that scene, because he practiced dark magic.…
Yeah okay. Zhang Wuji also thought the same thing. He thought Zhao Min killed his "brothers" that's y he nearly choked her to death. Also wasn't in the sane state of mind. Are we supposed to be OKAY with such scenes existing in a PG-rated drama just coz the ML wasn't in the right state of mind?
