Weekly Round Up: The Eternal Love

I enjoy the simpleness of the drama. This is not a drama you need to think about it too hard for sure. However, we are getting to end of the road for out leads. Xiao Tan is willing to die for Lian Cheng to live past 25. Grandma Dowager Queen is totally on board to kill Xiao Tan. The Crown Prince has been over taken by the villains and brain washed.

The good guys win, but at the cost of Tan Er and the Crown Prince dying. Peace has been brought back to the country. I'm a little hurt the next two years is fast forward and Xiao Tan's pregnancy is a small issue. It also makes me sadden that these two can't be parents because of Xiao Tan's powers. I get the drama isn't going to be deep nor is it a long drama, but darn I was hoping for some cute family time too. You know it the calm before the storm before it destroys all the happiness away.

There's still the big showdown with the big evil and we still need to figure out what the bed, the flute, and the orb all means.

 

Princess Agents

 

It seems this year has produced a lot of interesting Chinese Dramas. It all started with Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms. Fingers crossed a local theatre  near me will show Once Upon a Time (the movie version) next month. It would be pretty sweet if it was in IMAX, but I'll just be happy with it in theatres. 

I had someone on my Tumblr page asked me to do some Princess Agents meme and thought why not. I don't think my memes will explain my frustration with this drama and thought why not write a bit about it. The drama is currently still airing and has about another week of episodes. 

Princess Agents is currently making waves, but it's not living up to the hype. The story is based off a book called 11 Chu Te Gong Huang Fei by Xiao Xiang Dong Er. From my understanding, the book had elements which are banned for dramas. A lot of work had to go into the time travel change. I've heard the book is pretty good, but the rework of this drama makes me wonder the elements take out of the book is the reason why this drama is turning into a chaotic mess.

I warn you of spoilers ... Don't read more if you don't want to know.
