The Biggest Hollywood Films Originated from China

Zhang Wuji = Rey [Kenobi???] (again Disney switched this char's gender):

 

Zhang Sanfeng (the most powerful figure in Heaven Sword & Dragon Saber) = Luke Skywalker:






(Luke was finally found at the top of a mountain. Zhang Sanfeng lives at the top of Mount Wudang.)

 

Miscellaneous STAR WARS stuff:


Beggar Chief's staff (or "dog-beating stick") / Rey's primary weapon:

I think the two idiots in "The Hidden Fortress" were used to portray r2d2 & c3po, , , ,

Obviously, there are Japanese elements to the original SW (not the Prequels, that was like 99% Chinese), such as this:






But it doesn't make STAR WARS. Vader didn't become iconic b/c he looked like a high-tech Shogun warlord when in armor. What made SW an instant classic was this: "Luke, I'm your father!"

(Continued in next post)

 

Alas, this too is the central backbone of the Condor Heroes. In Legend of the Condor Heroes (= Legend of the Jedi Heroes/ie. the Prequel Trilogy), the story is about the father turning evil. In the sequel Return of the Condor Heroes ( = Return of the Jedi Heroes/ie. the Original Trilogy), the story is about the son confronting his father's past mistakes and choosing to do good rather than evil. The little difference between Condor Heroes & STAR WARS is that the father perished in Condor Heroes, whereas technology allowed Anakin to be on life support after he was technically killed by ObiWan...

Also, in Condor Heroes, the father had his arm poisoned right before he died, and the son actually had his severed. Like father like son, as was seen in STAR WARS where both father and son lost an arm in combat.

Anyways, regardless of which Trilogy we are talking about, SW had always been at least 95% Chinese and maybe 3-5% Japanese, depending on the Trilogy, with the highest Japanese proportion being the Original Trilogy, and the lowest being the Sequel Trilogy.

 

The Elders who trained Yang Guo as their last deed:

Ouyang Feng & Hong Qigong:



(In Condor Heroes, they both trained the protagonist at the same time on a snow field)


Likewise to Luke, ObiWan & Yoda:



(In STAR WARS each Elder sequentially trained Luke, with Force ghost ObiWan telling Luke to go to Yoda while being frozen on a snow field...)

 

Similar "training setting", Force ghost ObiWan calls to Luke while lying frozen on a snow field on Hoth:

 

Mount Wudang (and Jedi temple), home of Zhang Sanfeng (Luke Skywalker):

 

The real life Mount Wudang:

 

(Zhang Sanfeng is the head of those temples on Mt Wudang, whereas Luke Skywalker lives in those mound-like structures (= Jedi temple) on a mountain in the Sequel Trilogy)...

The story of Lord of The Rings had always been about the love between Sam and Frodo. Sure, there was the quest to destroy the One Ring, but it wasn't what made LOTR timeless, it was the former that did!


Likewise, what made Condor Heroes timeless was the love between "Anakin & Padme". Openings/clips of the various adaptations since Condor Heroes' 1st publication in 1959/1961:

(Notice how Xiao Long Nu = Padme always wear white, except in the '98 adaptation and in the anime, where she wears black and pink respectively. This is where Princess Leia's iconic white robe comes from, even though she is Padme's daughter, not Padme herself. Also notice how in the '84 and '14 adaptations, Xiao Long Nu sport a set of prominent "meatballs" on her head = Princess Leia's buns/hairstyle...)

 

Luke Skywalker (= Western Zhang Sanfeng):

 

Like mother (Padme), like daughter (Leia) part #1.

Images below show: i. Padme (= in Xiao Long Nu's favorite dress color, except the '98 Taiwan & anime), and ii. Leia's trademark hair buns ( = Xiao Long Nu's "dumplings" on her head in '83 & '14 Condor Heroes adaptations)
