Monkey Goes West (1966) 西遊記

Director: He Menghua Screenwriter: Cheng Gang Starring: Yue Hua / He Fan / Peng Peng / Zhang Zhongwen Genre: Drama / Action / Fantasy / Costume Country/Region of Production: Hong Kong, China Language: Mandarin Chinese Date: 1966-01-18 Duration: 112 minutes IMDb: tt0121568 Type: Retelling

Summary:

The story takes place in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. In order to save the souls in the East, a generation of eminent monk Tang Monk (played by Fan He) received the support of the Tang Dynasty king. Under the escort of a large army of soldiers and horses, he went to the Buddhist land in the West to obtain the Tripitaka Sutra. Needless to say, the journey was rough and arduous, and there were also monsters and spirits in the caves and mountains who were ready to eat Tang Seng. The sky was clear just a moment ago, but in the blink of an eye there was flying sand and rocks. It turned out that the monster Demon King Black Wind cast a spell, causing Tang Monk and his followers to be separated, and the monsters fought for Tang Monk even more. Tang Seng fled all the way and was exhausted. Finally, he met the Monkey King (played by Yue Hua), Sun Wukong, who had been suppressed here for five hundred years in the Five Elements Mountains. Wukong received the guidance of Bodhisattva Guanyin and promised to protect Monk Tang from studying in the West. With the help of his highly skilled martial arts apprentice, Tang Seng finally calmed down for the time being.

During the next journey, they encountered Zhu Bajie (played by Peng Peng), Monk Sha (played by Tian Chen) from Gaolaozhuang, and the Little White Dragon from Bailongtan. The magnificent story of Journey to the West was officially staged...

We all know that white fandom™️ is racist, but I will always find it weird how white fandom will attack some of the most unique looking white actors in favor of the most basic looking white actors. And by basic, I don't mean ugly. I mean the most *normal* good looking white guy.

Like, I will never forget the shit white fandom pulled when Jamie Campbell Bower was cast as Jace Wayland. White fandom gladly illustrated their shit taste by calling him ugly and threw tantrums that Alex Pettyfer wasn't cast. For one thing, Alex Pettyfer turned down the role. He literally didn't want to play the part. But the other thing is that the shadowhunters are supposed to seem otherworldly--because they are involved in a world that regular humans cannot see...and these people wanted the most normal looking guy to play him and were mad that a dude with unique features was cast to play him.

But also...let's not forget how the racism popped out when Godfrey Gao was cast to play Magnus and they were mad that an Asian man was cast to play *checks notes* an Asian character lmao...and they had the AUDACITY to call him ugly too.

A brunch of Vegetarian Rice with a couple of my favourite dishes of curry mock mutton & potato, creamy sweet imitation pork ribs and bitter gourd omelette.

Also bought some 3 in 1 Sweet Cake and pan-fried Carrot Cake. The sweet cake is crispy on the outside with soft yam, sweet potato and sticky nian gao (年糕) inside. The carrot cake is not your typical sweet western confection but steamed savoury turnip/radish and rice flour concoction then pan-fried for that crispy surface and fragrance.
