Zhu Yilong as Li Xiang in The Great War | 志愿军：雄兵出击 (2023)

And that's it folks - he does not appear in the movie itself, just in a post-credits scene that is a montage of all the scenes he was supposed to be in, I guess. So what you see above is everything of him in the movie. Truly. I watched it so that you don't have to.

Absolutely do not recommend the movie, and defnitely not if you just want to see Longge, so here it is, the collection of Li Xiang Best of (which is also his ALL).

Rant under the cut.

This director made The Battle at Lake Changjin| 长津湖 (2021) before and it was much more tolerable on the ✨Message✨ it also made some attempt to show the human side of the war.

Here I think someone got to the script because from what I could discern, the story was meant to be centered on the family - Li Moyan, the father and the commander of the unit that the movie follows, Li Xiang, his son who is a soldier and Li Xiao, the daughter that ends up in the diplomatic party, going to the US to argue the Chinese cause. The traces are there, but they do not come together at all.

The characters of Li Xiang and Li Xiao are absolutely absent from the narrative, they only exist in Li Moyan's words when he tells his comrades that he has a daughter and an estranged son. Li Xiao appears at the very end, for two scenes together and doesn't bring much to the story aside from crying about the words of the Chinese representative and explaining to Madame Tang (Zhang Ziyi!!!) that she has a father she loves and who has the other key to her home. Li Xiang appears only in the post credits scene that I screenshoted above.

What is left in the movie? Well. Death, explosions, dramatic singing of the national anthem, Good Leader Mao crying for his people and pretty much everything that comes to your mind when you think 'heavy-handed national propaganda'. A lot of emphasis is put on the character's ages - you are meant to realise that the soldiers are young, mostly between 18 and 30. Mao's son who tragically dies is 28, a very important thing for everyone around.

That's why I believe Longge was ultimately dropped from the movie - he is too old, simply. Doesn't fit the image the movie wants to sell but they couldn't exactly cut him out entirely, since he was one of the promoting factors.

So they slapped the montage at the very end, right after the first credits, to appease people who watched it only for Longge, that is my theory.

I have a very high tolerance for propaganda, but this movie was too much even for me. Don't recommend, even to support Longge.

Spotlight Series:

Spotlight On Something Old, But New To Me...

Title: Irresistible Love.

Also Called: Uncontrolled Love

Novel Title: Force Majeure

Directed By: Sun Cheng Zhi & Meng Rui

Written By: Lan Lin

Starring: Meng Rui as Xie Yan

Wang Bowen as Shu Nian

Release Dates: June 28, 2016 (First Movie)

August 20, 2016 (Sequel or Part 2)

Country: China

Language: Chinese

Shu Nian is a orphan and meets wealthy boy Xie Yan who "adopts" him. The two are inseparable friends with Shu Nian calling Xie Yan "Young Master"

Shu Nian is gay and in love with Xie Yan. Xie Yan is a self entitled asshole in many occasions but he can't deal with his feelings for Shu Nian often using force and dubious consent to touch Shu Nian.

As adults Xie Yan has a manipulator girlfriend who is jealous of the obvious closeness between the two.

Final Thoughts: I had a love hate thing with this movie. Honestly I never heard of it. I did like the actors. I felt so bad for Shu Nian. He reminds of MODC'S YU XI GU in that he had no parents and always seemed to get the short end of the stick. And I like Xie Yan almost as much I hated him. He was so entitled but when he was sweet he was a sweetheart. I'm not sorry I watched these two films. According to my research 2 Endings were made. One where you Shu Nian dies from injuries due to a car accident and Xie Yan learns of this and is devastated and isolated him self. (I didn't see this ending)

The ending I saw was Xie Yan went to a location hoping to see Shu Nian after a long time. Supposedly Shu Nian doesn't show. As Xie Yan prepares to leave he notices a man watering grass or plants wearing a mask and baseball hat. He immediately notices its Shu Nian. When the mask falls it is indeed Shu Nian who is limping and is slightly disfigured from the accident. Xie Yan professes his love. The two kiss...the end.

Asking some BL Fam if they've heard of this one. Of course @absolutebl having an impressive numbers of BL's watched. And @pose4photoml & @lutawolf

Or @wanderlust-in-my-soul have you heard or seen this?

One Dress a Day Challenge

August: Fantasy & Sci-Fi

Monster Hunt 2 / Li Yichun as Black Phoenix (Zhu Jinzhen)

I'm not sure what to say about this outfit besides "Wow!" It's even more spectacular and has an even more elaborate headdress than the black outfit that she wears earlier in the film. The hooded cloak, with its black designs of birds and flowers, also has a filmy black net overlay to lend it some subtle depth and drama.

Her ... henchmaidens? ... have some beautiful and elaborate outfits as well, with impressive headdresses of their own.
