The trailer was great, so I wonder how they will tone this down and make it funny and cheesy. It's GMMTV after all. They always show us dark action/horror/suspense trailers, and then they make a cute and cheesy little BL story out of it.
Seriously, a company that's known for gay stories, but whose biggest budget spending goes to straight series but…
For real though. They know BL fans will watch everything. They don't even try anymore. There is not much competition either. With their hetero series they have to do well, BL on the other hand - put a popular couple in it and done!
You're really out there defending Jimmy Kimmel? The guy was unbearable to watch. You leftist people did nothing else than censor everyone, "cancel culture" was your invention. Now you're mad when you taste your own medicine. Hypocrites. The only time in my life I experienced dictatorship was when they told me I have to get vaccinated otherwise I was stripped from my human rights and my rights as a citizen. Where was your outcry back then? And no, I'm no Trump supporter. Heck, I'm not even American. I will tell you something. Listen well: if this leads America and other parts of the world in a dictatorship, then people like YOU are to blame. The leftist propaganda has no common sense, from uncontrolled immigration to the enforcement of racism by constantly making everyone a victim and the believe a man can be a woman (!), it's just unbearable for people who aren't brainwashed and have some common sense. Average people who just want to live their life in peace don't care about your "agendas". So the pendulum is going in the other direction like it was back then in Berlin before Hitler came to power. Berlin was a lost city with no morals. Destroyed by communists/left minded people. Then follows the rise of the far right. And then you can cry a bit harder, after you destroyed whole societies with your madness, so people are fed up and elect dictators in hope for some common sense returning - a false hope. Why I'm even writing this? You won't get it. You're full of hate and brain washed to the max while at the same time believing you're good and smart and fight for the right cause. Whatever happens in the future, if the right is destroying whole countries, then the left was the one who paved the way. That's how it always works. The cycle repeats itself.
I want to watch this, but since it's so hyped ... It's rather perverted/toxic or cheesy/lakorn-style. Never seen a hyped series that didn't fall in one of those two categories.
Boun is the waker actor of the two, but nobody seems to see it. I remember back then, when Between Us aired, everyone complained about Prem, but there is a lot of depth in his expressions, while Boun can only act as the cool guy. That's his natural talent. No shade. I like them both. But I have never seen an emotional expression on Boun's face, that really made me feel something.
Ep 2 and 3 - How in the world did we wait this long for this series, and yet the fight scenes are SO BADLY CHOREOGRAPHED???…
BounPrem is one of those rare couples that always had mind blowing chemistry. The kind of chemistry people go crazy about, even though they started as side characters. It's an accomplishmenet to kill that off completely. I blame the script. Prem seems soulless, and the vampire is just ... not it.
People here complaining that bounprem don't have any chemistry are the same people who were screaming in ep 2…
I'm one of those people who praised Prems acting back then when Between Us aired. He did a phenomenal job, but was given a poorly written script. He was so alluring - I didn't know he had it in him. Those kiss scenes in the first couple episodes were one of the best I have ever seen, because they were so raw and well filmed. Their chemistry was going through the roof - until the plot was done and they just dragged the whole story out. I can't say that they have no chemistry in this series. This kind of script kills every chemistry, that's normal, when there is no tension, no excitement, no nothing. I don't blame the actors. I just wonder why those writers don't know the basics. I could have told them, that this love story won't make people go crazy. Still, we are only at the beginning, but the characters are already too boring.
This is a snoozefest. I'm not a fan of those series where they get together so fast and are lovely dovey suddenly. Mostly, because the characters lack depth, their relationship had no build-up, and we get robbed of a lot of emotions we could have experienced while rooting for them and watching them getting closer. Also, I feel like lately there are a lot of series that play it safe. There is a lack of talent in editing/filmmaking/writing. The music is so generic, the scenes are so generic, it's just all the time the same. Either they play it safe, like I said, or there is a team behind it, who lacks creativity and some balls, and is just doing what they think will sell best. And, let's be honest, seeing the comments, it's enought to have good looking guys on screen. Investing in make-up and good lightening is most likely more profitable than writing a good story. On a side note: Why are those action and fight scenes in slow motion? And by the way: GMMTV can do better. Peaceful Property from last year was about Ghosts and Horror, and they did a phenomenal job with the writing and the filming/editing, or High School Frenemy which also had some decent action scenes. So I wonder if this is GMMTV BL style or what? The only thing I can praise: the coloring, the locations and the grunge style.
The got WU, but it's in pre production. What are you whining about??
Well, read my comment again. I'm whining about the long wait. Pre-production? Will it take another year then? Also, some series get cancelled, or the final product is completely different than the first trailer. That's very common. That the series we get has nothing to do with what we expected.
I'm a long time BL watcher, but I'm so tired, really. It's not like those companies or actors owe us anything, but to wait for years and years and years. I was never the biggest KinnPorsche fan out there, but for those who liked Mile and Apo, we had to wait 3 yeas for Shine, a mini series. I always liked BounPrem, and now after 3 years we got Revamp. High School Frenemy was pretty great last year, but despite Sky and Nani's popularity we got nothing this year from them, and what we will get next year nobody knows. I have a soft spot for BenzGarfield, but again, we got nothing in PitBabe and last year they only got a role as side couple in a mini series. I'm honestly forgetting about those actors and series if they keep this up. Same with TayNew. It will be 3 years after Cherry Magic if they release this next year. THREEE YEARS. Come on!
Lately, I have a hard time getting into those new BL series. They kill all the chemistry between the actors with the writing. I need some tension, some excitement. That's what makes a good couple. I don't feel like this is the case here.
No hate here, but why is this so popular? More than 1 M views on the first part of first episode. I don't know the company, I don't know the actors. It seems they are newbies? Lately, I feel series get hyped because the actors are attractive? Like Revenged Love, which sure wasn't popular because of the groundbreaking story/plot and great love scenes. I have seen people are mentioning the beauty of the actors? I mean, who doesn't want to look at beautiful people, but I'm a bit confused. Was there a lot of promotion for this? I didn't watch the series. I tried, I'm just not in the mood for this story at the moment. So I'm not saying this is bad. I'm just genuinely surprised about the number of viewers, the views on Youtube, the praise, the hype. I feel this is coming out of nowhere, and suddenly everyone is watching it? But then the rating on MDL is rather low, which doesn't mean much, but still. Is the novel popular and well known? I mean, I'm not that active in the BL world, but normally I'm aware of any popular series coming out.
What fresh ideas? We have seen it all. Music based BL. Mafia/Crime BLs. BLs in the entertainment industry. Office…
Thai dystopian/apocalypse: Till the world ends (2022) British zombie series: In The Flesh (2013-2014) Japanese dystopian/sci-fi: Ai no Kusabi. Original anime movie from 1992. Unfinished remake from 2012. Just to mention what came to my mind.
Many (western) survival/post-apocalyptic or fantasy series have gay couples like in The Last Of Us, Buffy, The 100, Shadowhunters etc.
gurl i seriously cant with music based bls anymore, im tolerating Shine cuz i love MileApo and it isn't focused…
