Tsui Hark, show them how it’s done!!
The Third Master’s Sword 三少爷的剑 (I am sure they will have a better English title sometime soon) has released a teaser, marking Tsui Hark‘s return to the wuxia genre. Starring Lin Gengxin, Peter Ho, Jiang Yiyan, Jiang Mengjie, and Ren Qingan, this seems to be based on the novel by Gu Long.
I have to admit I am pleased with what looks like more realistic-looking weapons for a change.
Tribes and Empires: Storm of Prophecy 九州·海上牧云记 has released images of what looks like key props for the production. Starring Huang Xuan, Shawn Dou, Zhou Yiwei , and Wang Qianyuan, I guess we can some nice character posters pretty soon.
More below the cut.
… and it seems like Wolverine came out with his own line of nail polish…
Demon Girl 半妖倾城 has released stills. Starring Liu Yitong, Zhang Zhehan,and Merxat, some of these stills are kind of reminding me of Wuxin: The Monster Killer.
More character posters below the cut.
Clothing embellishments overload: you know it’s too much when it starts looking 3D…
The Braveness of the Ming has released more stills and a trailer, starring Zhang Han, Jones Xu Zhengxi, and Wei Qianxiang. Personally, I think they went a bit too far with the costume elaborateness…

More dark secrets from the fashion industry, as if Hugo Boss’s history was not enough, now we find out that demons are the ones really running the show.
More character posters for Demon Girl 半妖倾城 have been released. Starring Liu Yitong, Zhang Zhehan, Merxat, Hong Xiao, and Dai Xiangyu, be prepared for what looks like a more high-fashioned take on the late Qing dynasty to the Republican era.

For some reason, most of his costumes have been blue so far…
Bioepic Song of Phoenix 思美人 has released more stills. Settle with these stills of leads Ma Ke and Zhang Xinyu while we wait on more stills of the rest of the cast.

The mysterious town near Azure Hills, where no wedding ever works out, and the Lantern Festival occurs every other day.
Tang Yixin, Wang Kai, Jin Chen, Xiaocaiqi, Yao Yixin, Zhai Tianlin and Mike Angelo are only some of the people (foxes) getting married in the currently-airing Foxes of Azure Hill/Legend of Qing Qiu Fox.
So far, I would say the three chapters are in reverse order of quality. Xiaocaiqi and Fu Xinbo make a surprisingly cute pair in probably the best-written chapter so far, Jiang Kaitong and Zhai Tianlin pull off the over-the-top story with their natural cuteness (although his dubber is the worst), while Chen Yao is the only redeeming feature of chapter 1.
The costumes don’t look bad, though I’m still waiting to see them in action.
Son of Hero, starring Gao Yunxiang, has released more stills and started to give us a look at more of the female costuming. In this way, hopefully audiences won’t feel too shorted on the pretty.
