@karina but even before during "glory days" they used pageant queens

I think HK’s glory days (in films in this context) are long over. No use lamenting on the past now... A good start to reform the industry would be stop hiring hacks who can’t act especially the beauty pageant “queens” and ABC’s who can’t speak a lick of Cantonese.

@jujuxoxo “Ip Man is like the last kung fu HK movie that was good and had an international release, brought lots of people to tears when the legacy ended. Yet, you got chinese ppl bashing it`s pro PRC, it`s cliche oh let`s boycott it. I`ve never seen a race mocking it`s own race like that.” You’re right it’s quite bizarre. Poor Yip Man doesn’t deserve to be slandered by uneducated HKers. I wonder how the initial reception was when thee first movie first cane out at 2008... maybe it got milked too much and people began thinking it as propaganda

@karina Cecilia is mixed herself so her kids with Nic are a bit mixed too so why would they think differently of their little brother? I guess many have forgotten that Cecilia is a quarter European.

@karina I think Cecilia herself is also mixed with Chinese and British?

@karina i don't think they'd be too bothered over the sound of all the money they'll inherit from both parents.

@karina Doesn’t matter. We all know that Cecilia is the model mother who will do anything for her kids. She has always wanted many kids and my have not been too bothered who the father was.

I wonder how her two other sons will feel having a half-white brother. Sad thing is in Asia whites get preferable treatment.

80's to 90's HK films was one of the best periods in film history. The downfall of the industry is tragic but also inevitable. No films in Mainland China can even compare (maybe except Farewell my Concubine)

That haircut is horrific and he looks like a creep. No way he makes it lol.

@karina Have you seen the latest press freedom index? China rank 4th! From the bottom! As an actor, be able to speak or do his art freely is like press freedom, and with HK being held so tightly by China, he won’t have that freedom any more, therefore, better off move to Taiwan. I just saw someone comment about Taiwan, it’s a place where Chinese can be Chinese without the need to deal with the communist!

@anon interesting, have not heard about the rankings. Personally I’ve seen videos where protesters verbally harass bystander citizens for no good reason which was disheartening to see. I think the protesters aren’t as innocent as they want to be seen as. And isn’t it hypocritical that a wealthy celebrity like Anthony Wong can boost about moving when regular citizens can’t do the same?

@jimmyszeto Lawrence was not a bad ZWJ. At least he could act. Just a tad bit old and it was obvious. Raymond is even worse LOL

@karina I disagree. The idea of the swords is great but the characters are rather annoying and unlikable. Nearly all the other Jin Yong stories are far and away better...

i'm kinda curious how bad this will be so I might watch it lol. HSDS is my favorite Jin Yong novel as well and it'll be nice to watch a wuxia in Cantonese again.

This guy is such a c**k. LOL. This attempt to save face is too much.

Hopefully for him the sons don't only love him for his money but who knows.

@karina Agree that cutting losses could be a solution; however, being pregnant and all, she probably needs someone by her side, and that makes sense. I don't see her as a woman who lacks self-respect. Despite the footage, this forgiveness appeared to be a temporary answer so the paparazzi can receive a reply. She sounded pretty pissed still, so who knows? Maybe when everything is settled, breakup announcements would be made.

Honestly both the wife and this guy look bad. What kind of woman with self respect would take back a man who was cheating on her while 8 months pregnant? She should have cut her losses and raised the baby alone. This Jackson guy is real scum for cheating and he barely had a career to start off with anyways so bye bye

@karina True... with the abundance of young actors/actresses nowadays from other parts of Asia, these 2 are really nobodies. Sad for the wife though. Sacrificed 15 years of her youth and when the guy just started to gain a little recognition from one drama, he's already cheating on her. Hope the home wrecker female dog will get same karma when she's 8 months pregnant so she can experience how it feels.
