I Just Finished Phoenix Rising last night. I dont want to say any spoilers, but the ending is unbelievable. I was quite shocked at how everything went down. Krystal Tin, Louisa So, and Leila Tong all did an excellent job. In my opinion Louisa's villainess role far surpasses Susanna Kwan in Heart of Greed. And if it airs, Leila Tong will be the top contender for Most Improved. Krystal will probably grab a Best Actress nomination too.
I'm was so surprised when I logged on this morning. When I was reading the C-Box there were alot of comments about a post on Metal's TVB Musing blog. I read everything including the post, and since there was a request for my opinion I'll briefly express what I think. Well, before I start I just want to say I support him on the fact that it's his blog & he can say what ever he wants. I also posted a comment on his blog so dont worry I'm not going behind his back. My opinion is completely different from what he thinks though. I wont address his post directly because we are friendly affiliates and don't want people to mistake it as something else but I'll say this:
*In the past I have said I miss High School since graduation. But in the last few weeks of College I have said I dont miss High School at all. I have also said I'm confident I'll get an A+ in my Eastern Culture class, but just yesterday I said to a friend I just hope i can get a B in that class. Does that make me a hypocrite? No way. These statements are Contradictions not Hypocrisy. These contradictions come as a result of many possible things like a change of hearts or a lost of confidence.
*A Hypocrisy comes with a proclamation, and an action in 99.9% of the time. For example, I say to everyone I'm against fur & I condemn it because it's murder. Yet I take the action to go out and buy a fur coat I thought was pretty to wear to a Gala. That would make me a hypocrite. Two statements that contradict doesn't add up to a hypocrisy in my opinion.
That's all I have to say. It's my two cents, take it or leave. I have some major Homework to do. Stay cool people!!
I almost forgot! HAPPY BIRTHDAY Gigi Lai! Her Birthday is tomorrow, I probably wont have time to say it tomorrow so I'll say it. |
Comments on "Phoenix Rising / The Hypocrisy Controversy"
Very very glad you enjoyed Phoenix Rising. Too bad its warehoused but I think it should definitely be aired.
Crystal Tin is with TVB now? Does anyone know??
yeah, Crystal is with TVB now. she has for a while actually. I remember her saying so on the Super Trio Continues ep 1. This is her first TVB series.
I'm soo glade that ATV is changing their image, which means many older actors from tvb will migrate to ATV. ATV is also making improvements in many areas due to the new management.
Don't get me wrong, I love watching TVB, however there is soo much politics and unfair treatments toward the actors in TVB. If they no longer favor you, you wont be working or they offer you only villain roles. TVB ruled for the longest time, cuz well it's cuz we as audiences had no choice, it is obvious they have better shows.
Their needs to be competition inorder for more improvement.
correction:
there - not their
how come sunny chan did not appear in d last episode of this series.. he sort of just went missing.. n they didnt say anth...weird...
