A long time ago, there was news in China that China and the United States were about to co-produce a large-scale film based on Journey to the West, dare to ask where the way is, and starring Liu Xiaolingtong, who played Sun WuKong in the 1986 CCTV classic TV series Journey to the West.
Soon after, the upcoming Sino-American co-production "dare to ask where is the way" was renamed "True and fake Monkey King", starring Liu Xiaolingtong.
However, many years have passed, and there has been no news that the film "the True and fake Monkey King," starring six Young Children, has been filmed in a Sino-American co-production, and even the cast of other characters has not been confirmed, let alone announced. In this way, the domestic audience all thought that the film had been aborted and that it was impossible to meet us in the future.
However, it never occurred to me that not long ago, an animated film called Journey to the West, the True Monkey King, first exposed the pilot poster and released a documentary at the same time. And this animated film is the blockbuster that once claimed to be co-produced by China and the United States.
The animated film Journey to the West, the Monkey King (hereinafter referred to as "the Monkey King"), is co-directed by Zhaoguang animation's famous animation director Zhao Jie and Zhang Ke, and co-starred by Liu Xiaolingtong and Ma Dehua to capture the characters in the film. It mainly tells the story that five hundred years ago, the hairy monkey was saved and gradually grew into Sun WuKong, a Tang monk as his teacher. The four master and disciples passed by Shenshu Ridge, and the six-eared macaque became an obstacle between master and apprentice. After a fierce battle, the story of good and evil prevailed.
Liu Xiao Ling Tong is the best actor of Sun WuKong in Journey to the West in the eyes of domestic audiences. In the 1986 CCTV version of Journey to the West, it can be said that Sun WuKong has become a household name.
Now, he and his old partner Ma Dehua will re-star in Journey to the West and create classic characters again, which should be exciting, but many people say they are not very interested in the true and false Monkey King.
There are two main reasons why audiences are not interested in "True or False Monkey King" starring Liu Xiaoling Tong.
One is that the image of Liu Xiao Ling Tong in the eyes of the audience is getting worse and worse in recent years, and the other is that in recent years, the domestic market has given birth to many films and TV dramas adapted from Journey to the West. Audiences have long felt aesthetic fatigue and even had a certain antipathy to the movies and TV dramas adapted according to Journey to the West.
Therefore, even if the Monkey King is published, it may not be able to win the favor of the audience, nor can it necessarily create a relatively considerable box office results.
