Wuxia Recommendations

Hello,

I'm new here, so if this isn't the where the thread is supposed to be, then I extend my apologies for not abiding by the rules. >.<

I'm very interested in the wuxia/fantasy genre. No modern for me. Tongue

If anyone would like to recommend a movie or show, please do so. Would really appreciate it.

Thanks. Smile

Thank you very much. I have Return of the Condor Heroes 2006 since I remember watching the really old version when I was young and loved it at the time. Also got Sword Stained with Royal Blood 2006 Tongue

I am unsure of what you mean by the Tv series in order though. Although I have ROCH, I haven't had time to watch it yet nor the other one either. (One day I will though.) Do mean that it's one really long epic story and should watch it in that order to truly appreciate the history behind each serie? Also, I was under the impression that the order is Legend of the Condor Heroes, Return of the Condor Heros and then ending with Heavenly Sword and Dragon Saber.

Not many wuxia/fantasy come to my mind. You can try Wind & Cloud, The Sword and the Chess of Death, Chinese Paladin and Devil's Disciples.

For pure wuxia, you can try out what Airhead mentioned. In addition, you might want to try out The Duke of Mount Deer 1984, Legend of the Condor Heroes 1994, The Book and the Sword, Face to Fate and Tian Xia Di Yi (The World's Finest).

For a little wuxia/historical, Young Warriors (Shao Nian Yang Jia Jiang) is a must watch. Mr. Green

The World's Finest has been aired in Singapore with English subtitles but I think no one recorded it so that's too bad. My fansub team is gonna sub The Sword and the Chess of Death.

I don't really keep track of whether a series is subbed or not because I don't require them. Cool
