frith_in_thornsThank you, first half of ep 11, for giving me almost everything I want re hurt/comfort that I usually only get in fic.
- Pangzi pulling Wu Xie up and Wu Xie beginning to fold and Pangzi and Kylin supporting him together! And then he continues hanging onto Pangzi after that!
- Big fight! I enjoyed it!
- Very convenient rescue in the nick of time! And Wu Xie being heroic and self-sacrificing and saving Liu Sang (why are they calling him Jinx now??) and everyone being Very Stressed (I loved xparrot's description of him being super hard to keep alive, like an orchid or something)
- EXPLOSION! And Wu Xie half-conscious like that, and then he DID get tucked up in bed, which I something I very much needed for him after everything he's gone through lately. Loved literally everyone standing around waiting for him to wake up. And then he wanted to talk about preserving the artifacts, omg you dork.
- Can't wait for the Scientific Explanation of the princess. More crabs? Surely even this show can't try and pin everything on the hand crabs.
- Some stuff happened in the village. Ok.
- Loved everyone getting to hang out and relax in the bar! That was such a sweet scene, it felt super real, almost like a BTS but for the characters.
- The veeeeery looooong flashback turned out to be even less fun to watch than the village plotline. We finally get some more women? They make bad decisions because of being in a boring love triangle with Sanxing? We really needed THIS MUCH of it?? At least they cut back every now and then to kind-of-drunk Wu Xie.
- Then I went back and watched the first half of ep 11 again.

Date: 2020-07-23 09:58 pm (UTC)I really loved the whole bar scene! It was so fun. And yeah, at least they did keep cutting back every now and then.
And I know I have already been screaming about the ep 11 stuff on chat but SO GOOD! That is the sort of sequence I always desperately want to see but so rarely gets filmed in full. This show is Really Committed to the h/c and I have so much approval of it. (And we haven't even got to any of the many many bleeding and fainting scenes which were in the trailer! ...I said I showed the trailer to Ellie and she started laughing at how many there were.) I'm looking forward to them going to find the next tomb!

I can scream so much more about the first part of 11!! So good, and yes, so much what I always want that we so rarely get (...have you ever seen Starsky and Hutch? That's the most comparable thing. But Zhu Yilong is so much prettier than those guys... 😆 I love that not only are we getting some of the most indulgent h/c like...ever...but it's with one of my favorite actors, who I love in part because he is SO good at it. ...he goes limp so convincingly!)
I still want to know if the trailer is for just s1 or for the whole show, I'm wonder how long we'll have to wait for some of those shots!
