The patriarch of Westerners’ nonsense is actually Buster Keaton

"Simulated horse riding" is fun. Parody of the master and servant partner in "Don Quixote".

The black warrior laughed to death.

Flying cow in the sky has good imagination.

It seems that Liu Zhenwei paid tribute to the film in "A Journey to the West". For example, Wu Mengda's style and the forced marriage father here, for example, the two twin sisters of "The Kingdom of Daughters" correspond to Zixia and Qingxia.

The bridge of death is nothing short of a brain teaser.

The story of a few people forming a group to search for the Holy Grail is not the same as the pattern of the Tang Sanzang group taking the Western Classics? Why can't the Chinese make such a creative and fun film? Frankly speaking, "A Journey to the West" is not as funny and creative as this one, but it's just a moving emotional line.

When watching Hong Kong films, one always thinks that Master Xing is the ancestor of nonsense. Strictly speaking, he is just someone who talks about the extremes of nonsense of Hong Kong films. In the 1980s, many Hong Kong films already had the shadow of nonsense, but they were not true. Form an obvious type style. There is no doubt that Xingye’s films have been influenced by Western movies such as "Unparalleled and Unreliable", "Moncler", "White-headed Detective", and Buster Keaton, Chaplin and others have not only influenced Western nonsense, but also Hong Kong people. Including Liu Zhenwei and Zhou Xingchi, it is Keaton and Chaplin who really want to investigate the ancestors.

  • King Arthur: Old woman!

    Dennis: Man.

    King Arthur: Man, sorry. What knight lives in that castle over there?

    Dennis: I'm 37.

    King Arthur: What?

    Dennis: I'm 37. I'm not old.

    King Arthur: Well I can't just call you "man".

    Dennis: Well you could say "Dennis".

    King Arthur: I didn't know you were called Dennis.

    Dennis: Well you didn't bother to find out, did you?

    King Arthur: I did say sorry about the "old woman", but from behind you looked...

    Dennis: What I object to is you automatically treat me like an inferior.

    King Arthur: Well, I am king.

    Dennis: Oh, king eh? Very nice. And how'd you get that, eh? By exploiting the workers. By hanging on to outdated imperialist dogma which perpetuates the economic and social differences in our society.
