Alan will continue to sing the theme song of part II of Red Cliff, Da Jiang Dong Qu. The song is based on two poems – Su Shi’s “Reflections on the Ancient Red Cliff-To the Tune of Niannujiao” and Yang Shen’s “Lin Jiang Xian.”
Just because China is a largely agnostic country doesn’t mean it doesn’t like its winter holidays, and while I doubt China celebrates Thanksgiving, around this time the streets in China are starting to get lined with Christmas decorations and it becomes a busy time for movies. This was actually a very weird year for the Chinese movie industry because of the Olympics, and much of the production activity was halted for China so I’m not sure how these movies would have been affected, but hopefully some of them will surprise me and hopefully some of them will live up to hype. Some of you may be wondering, am I actually on hiatus? I don’t know. I have a few more posts lined up though, so maybe not. :P
