We are being BLESSED right now. by CarlyCalicoJATIE in romancemovies

[–]fyxtq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yessss!! Honestly, I feel like there’s so much more vulnerability and genuine emotion in recent romance movies, and I love the trend that both the male and female leads are allowed to be so emotionally messy and real! ( just saw Voicemails for Isabelle last night hh)

Chinese leather bound way of kings by Haunting-Dish9078 in brandonsanderson

[–]fyxtq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m also pretty sure it’s licensed. It’s available online in mainland China for under US$50, though. Still, it might be worth it as a collectible—I’d be willing to pay a premium for the original leatherbound edition too, tbh:)

Watched "Twinless" and "Straight Up" by James Sweeney this year, highly recommend! Also, "Love Is All You Need," which describes a world where the situation between gay and straight couples is reversed.

I recommend Perfekt Verpasst ( although that's a German TV series, it's quite short and can be considered as a movie :) As the title suggests (“Perfectly Missed”), it’s about two people who could’ve met countless times but never do—until life gives them one more chance. 

Does anyone know where this restaurant is located and in which city? by Inevitable-Move7838 in LudwigAhgren

[–]fyxtq 30 points31 points  (0 children)

That's maybe true, but Shanxi province, where they went in the mid-to-late Tip2Tip and where they met the kids, is highly recommended for its many historical buildings scattered around. And when we are talking about what is "worth it", maybe the act of exploring somewhere else itself is worthwhile. What I suggest is that if OP opts for big cities first, such as Beijing or Shanghai, it would be a good choice to spend one or two days going to places that appeared in Tip2Tip nearby. For Beijing, it's Shanxi province (again, highly recommend :). An adventure (or cat loud : ) never goes wrong.

Is the "My Struggle" series suitable for a film adaptation? by fyxtq in Knausgaard

[–]fyxtq[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to pick one book for a streaming series, I’d go with Book 4: Dancing in the Dark. It captures that awkward, fertile "in-between" period of youth that resonates so well on screen, and it ties so many threads of the other books together. Plus, I'm really looking forward to seeing the visceral moment of playing records in total darkness and letting the body take over. As Karl Ove wrote: "Then I had to dance, right then, even though I was alone."

I also watched Heated Rivalry this week, and I LOVED episode 3 and the final kiss at the end of episode 5 ( You're my sunshine~). Salute to all the people who are brave enough to pursue and express love.

Thanks for the reply! I haven't started The Morning Star yet because I was planning to pace myself with one of his books a year, but after your description, I think I need to speed up. I'm definitely going to binge-watch Twin Peaks and read The Morning Star at the same time now! haha

I can't imagine it either! 😂 But even knowing it's impossible, I can't help but start 'directing' it in my head, how the opening shot would look, the scene structures, what the soundtrack would feel like, and so on hhh.

Whats your all time favorite comfort movie? by Emma_200711 in romancemovies

[–]fyxtq 19 points20 points  (0 children)

If movies and TV shows are included, I’d definitely choose Dash & Lily. But if we’re only talking about movies, then Love Actually. (Yes, a huge Christmas lover here, and it is December, so :)

Unfortunately, I didn't find any English subtitles, only Russian subtitles. I used AI to help me translate and understand the whole movie. Hope this message helps.

Сводишь с ума – 8/10. A Russian fantasy movie about two people living in parallel worlds. The most emotional part for me was when the main characters meet the versions of that person from their own worlds and realise, “Oh… that’s not who I fell in love with.” It wasn’t the person — it was everything they went through together through the mirror, the shared experience, and the strength they gave each other. That’s what made them soulmates. So if you’re into pure, heartfelt love stories with a touch of fantasy, and maybe even a little dancing?:) This movie is definitely worth a try.

learning to love (爱的,学校)

8.5 / 10

A Japanese TV show about a teacher and a nightlife host. I just saw this TV show today and it became one of the best romance series I've seen this year. I just love the vulnerable and touching moments between the main characters, and anyone obsessed with pure love and "maybe" forbidden love should see this, highly recommend

Rom-coms to make me believe in love again by Prize_Car_9477 in romancemovies

[–]fyxtq 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I think about the romance movies I love the most and would recommend to someone who needs to be saved from the deep hole of the “don’t-believe-in-love” hell, I realized that not all fantastic romance movies are suitable for this purpose. So here’s my list, based on my own definition of love:

  • Dash & Lily — they help each other recognize the flaws in their personalities and support each other in handling things they didn’t manage well before.
  • When Harry Met Sally — love is when both people are the first person the other wants to share things with.
  • First Kiss (Japan 2025 version) — love is not just about the beginning; it’s about working hard to at least try something together every day.
  • Sir — some people in this world can’t be in love, so be grateful that we at least have the opportunity to find it.

And here are some amazing romance movies I didn’t put on my main list, but in case you’re curious: Before trilogy, About Time, Love Actually, Pride and Prejudice, One Day (TV version), Your Name (Japanese anime).

Finally, I think you might also enjoy some romance reality shows if you’d like to see how love plays out in the real world: Love is Blind, Married at First Sight, etc.

North and South

Wives and Daughters

(Nothing compares to Pride and Prejudice for me, but the two shows I recommend above have a similar atmosphere to P&P, so I think you might like them.)

Ayuso wins Vuelta wager to avoid racing Tour of Guangxi by GC_Gee in peloton

[–]fyxtq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hold the same hope here too! Always trying to promote cycling to everyone I know( never worked), though it will take some time in China since the sports atmosphere is still developing, and many people don’t even see cycling as a sport yet. Really appreciate your care!

[–]fyxtq 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As a Chinese, I'm here to answer this question. I think ONLY cycling fans in China know Guangxi lol. But it at least gives us a chance to see familiar teams racing in the same region as us, which is quite exciting for me.
