I watched The Yin-Yang Master: Dream of Eternity and I won’t stop talking about it.

I didn’t expect it to be so good and so gay. For real, I only watched it for Xu Kaicheng (more on that later) and Wang Duo (who I casually found looking for someone else, it’s destiny) and thought it was going to be another cheesy paint-by-numbers fantasy movie with cringe-y visual effects but it’s sooo well-done and I actually care for all the characters?!

Boya is gay. There’s no heterosexual explanation for the looks he gives Qingming (who is canonically bisexual, fight me). Also, Boya is a bottom. This, my friends, is the face of a bottom:

(he’s screaming ‘top me’ on the inside)

Back to Xu Kaicheng and slightly off-topic: everyone wants him to be Jun Wu in the TGCF drama but I think he fits Hua Cheng much better. May the gods of cdrama casting bless me.

XKC is amazingly hawt in the five minutes of screen time he gets as The Mad Painter (btw, is he the palace painter the Hair Demon was talking about?)

(abs… chest… lips… tattoos… *drooling*)

At times I wish this was a series instead. The fast, almost breakneck pace is good and leaves no room to be bored (unlike a certain other movie I watched the other day) but some characters could be a little more fleshed out, specially the shikigami (looking at you, Killing Stone, you’re cute). On the downside, the budget would be spread through various episodes and we would get a giant snake on par with (or worse than) the Wen’s dog from CQL. Better not then…

(beautiful soft baby, I want to pet)

The makeup and costumes… simply gorgeous. I have a weakness for accurate period makeup and the Princess hit all my sweet spots. Correct me if I’m wrong, the eyebrows and hair are much more Heian Period in Japan than anything Chinese (the story is based on a Japanese book after all). The lips look like Tang Dynasty, though. The butterfly shikigami sports a hime cut and the main characters’ conical hats are also very Heian.

Ah, romance… I don’t hate the straights this time, in fact I almost cried (the horror!) during the flashback scenes. The power of Wang Duo’s abs, I guess. He is very hot and spends quite a lot of time shirtless. Thank you, Mr. Director.

Final rating: 9,9/10

I try to post this as a gif but then it became blur. 🤔

It became like this

Is there any way to make clear and sharp beautiful GIF without using photoshop?

Every time the pig in Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back changed to a handsome man, I was stunned by it. I was like, “wow, so beautiful. Why the pig doesn’t always change to this man.”

🤩 Looks like a prince 🤴

I’m glad Wang Duo is part of this movie! I’m glad that we are able to see his amazing acting. I’m glad we are able to know him.

This costume is amazing- the fish embroidery, the way the sleeves echo fish scales, the front panel with the water-like swirls. I know this show was notoriously low-budget but the costume and set design were on-point.

This is one of the scene that I dont know where to look. Between the fight, the shirtless, the garment, the hair and the face, my eyes kept darting around.

I like that black (seems like green to me, my eyes a bit weird) skirt-like legwear that He Shouyou wearing.

[id: eight gifs from the movie “the yin-yang master: dream of eternity”. all of them show the fight scene between he shouyue and crimson bird. they are fighting on the back of the giant evil snake. both characters seem to be equal in strength and skill. while he shouyue’s long dark hair is up in a bun, the crimson bird’s is in a half up, half down bun. both characters are shirtless. he shouyue’s skin is covered in translucent snake scales which he uses as armor. crimson bird has stylised black tattoos on his forehead, upper back, chest, and belly. he shouyue is wearing black skirt-like legwear (forgive me for inaccurate terms) with golden ornaments, while crimson bird wears one with dark red ornaments. its rags fly gracefully as he fights. /end id]
