就是，就是一个经典有什么可能是白写出来啊，它就是有很多看过的东西和它自身经历结合而成的，才有可能。那么而经典也都很多时候是由另一些经典结合而成，这个是很正常的。你接受不了是你接受不了而已。张国荣都说他的唱腔其实是，呃，是模仿罗文的，你知不知道？他曾经说过。
SunnyHOST
嗯。
TasukuHOST
他说他当初唱歌不好的，他就是要找一些人去模仿下，学下，学。那么他，他找的对象就是罗文。你，你细心听真一点，他的唱腔其实是同一种来的。不过他没有罗文练得那么，练到唱腔那么，那么，那么大戏而已嘛。你听真一点，其实他的唱法是罗文的唱法演变出来的。而刘德华就是再，再学下张国荣的，你留意下。刘德华是很明显的，你听他早期出的那些碟，他exactly是唱张国荣那个腔的。

So in the late 1980s, producer Sue Hark assembled a crack team of Better Tomorrow 2 action director Ching-Soo Teng, Peking Opera Blues, which is a great film, scriptwriter Yun-Kae Chee, and superstars Leslie Chung, Joey Wong and Wu Ma for the first in this trilogy.
John KirkHOST
It was so popular that it sparked the two sequels that are included.
John KirkHOST
So the film's featuring a wave of spectacular special effects, jaw-dropping fight choreography and luscious cinematography to craft spooky scares and thrills alongside a love story.
John KirkHOST
The set comes with a double-sided poster and we also get James Mudge providing a new audio commentary for each film in the trilogy.
John KirkHOST
We also get pieces on all three films by Grady Hendrix, a feature-length documentary on Leslie Chung, an appreciation for the sequels by David West, plus a new interview with Yun Kai-Chi.
John KirkHOST
So this looks great.
John KirkHOST
It looks another of the fantastic Golden Princess releases.
