Hong Kong film used to be Oriental Hollywood. In the golden age of the 80s and 90s, countless classic movies were created, which had a profound impact on the development of movies in mainland China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and Southeast Asia. In this period, countless classic series of movies were also created, and countless genre series of movies were born. Today, we will take stock of the most far-reaching ten is a series of electric movies... NO 10, "Happy Ghost" series
The series include: 1. Happy Ghost (1984) 2. Happy Ghost in Summer Holiday (1985) 3. Happy Ghost Hit Ghost (1986) 4. Happy Ghost Saves Happy Ghost (1990) 5. Happy Ghost Goes wrong (1991) : Huang Baiming Happy Girl: Yuan Jieying Luo Meiwei Chen Jialing Li Lizhen Behind the scenes hero: Huang Baiming
Speaking of ghost movies, everyone will think of many horrible and eerie movie plots, and when it comes to pleasant and happy comedy ghost movies, many post-80s generations will definitely think of the "Happy Ghost" series. The "Happy Ghost" series is the masterpiece of the gold medal producer Huang Baiming. It is said that the creation of "Happy Ghost" was inspired by Huang Baiming's drama "Zhu Xiucai" performed by a middle school student. This impressed him especially, so he bought it. Copyright, adapted into this film. And he entered the story he wrote and became the protagonist in front of the silver screen, starring in the "Happy Ghost" series written by his own screenwriter, and won the box office success, it seems a bit unintentional to put the willow into the willow. The cute zombie ghost starring Huang Baiming has a signature effect, and the final script he personally created also has a brand guarantee. The whole film is full of youthful campus atmosphere, and comedy jokes are refurbished and endless. In this way, "Happy Ghost Summer Vacation" and "Happy The sequels such as "Ghost Crashing Ghost" and "Happy Ghost on the Wrong Body" are naturally a double harvest of word of mouth and box office. The "Happy Ghost" series has also become an enduring 80s Hong Kong film classic comedy series. NO 09 "Best Partner" series 1. Best Partner (1982) 2. The Supernatural Power of Best Partner 2 (1983) 3. The Queen's Secret Order of Best Partner 3 (1984) 4. Best Partner 4: A Thousand Miles of Rescue Cha Po (1986) 5. Best Partner 5: Terracotta Warriors and Horses (1989)
Characters: Xu Guanjie, Mai Jia, Zhang Aijia Behind the scenes heroes: New Art City Seven Monsters
The creation of the first part of Best Partner fully embodies the sincere unity of the Seven Monsters of the New Art City, and finally creates a golden sign. When the first film of "Best Partner" started, Xu Guanjie's salary was as high as 2 million, which made Xinyicheng feel more pressure. Finally gritted his teeth and filmed it. The king Kong played by Xu Guanjie, the bald detective played by Mai Jia, and the man and wife played by Zhang Aijia finally achieved the box office myth. Then the sequel Daxian Shentong was still hot at the box office, and the third box office broke even more. Record, won close to 30 million box office. The success of the Best Partner series not only gave New Art City a firm foothold, but also made Shaw Brothers and Jiahe feel more pressure. For a time, the two former enemies joined hands to compete against the New Art City, which gave birth to the Fuxing series. NO.08 "Zombie" series
1. "Mr. Zombie" (1985) 2. "Mr. Zombie's Zombie Family" (1986) 3. "Mr. Fantastical" (1987) 4. "Mr. Zombie" (1989) 5. "Music Zombie" (1990) 6. "Exorcist Zombies" (1990) Characters: Lin Zhengying Apprentice Partners: Qian Xiaohao, Xu Guanying Behind the scenes heroes: Sammo Hung, Lin Zhengying
"Mr. Zombie": It should be regarded as a masterpiece that connects the past and the next. The character of Jiu Shu has been basically continued in every subsequent film. "Mr. Spiritual Fantasy": Wu Yaohan is a surprise. Although a half-hearted Taoist priest is relatively low in force, his relationship with Dabao Erbao is still touching. However, Lin Zhengying's own laughter is much less. It may be that Wu Yaohan and Lou Nanguang contracted the laughs of this film. The horse thief also appeared in this movie as the new first villain. "One Eyebrow Taoist": First of all, because of the eyebrows. There is also a combination of Taoist priests and nuns. Although it can't be regarded as the traditional combination of Chinese and Western to destroy the enemy, the little nuns are still pleasing to the eye. It is rich in types of ghosts and fighting scenes. There are also cute little zombies in the film, but it's a pity that this cute thing has very few chances to appear in subsequent series. NO 07 "Gambling Movies" series include: 1. "The God of Gamblers" (1989) 2. "The God of Gamblers 2" (1994) 3. "The Gamblers" (1990) 4. "The Gamblers 2" (1991) 5. " The Holy Gambling (1990)
Influential figures: Chow Yun-fat, Stephen Chow, Andy Lau Behind the scenes heroes: Wang Jing, Liu Zhenwei
Comment: With stunts, peerless masters, the casino is my only one. It is said that gambling is human nature, and as the director Wang Jing who is deeply involved in gambling, his gambling film series have always been regarded as classics by us, from "The God of Gamblers", "The Saint of Gamblers" to "The Gamblers", plus In other chapters of random gambling, most of the gambling market on the screen was taken up by him, and "The God of Gamblers" is the pioneering work of this trend. It can be said that starting from "The God of Gamblers", "gambling" has been dramatically deified. People often say that gamblers are given a heroic image in the film, and even the cheating in the gambling game has become A dazzling stunt that is chic and elegant. The God of Gambler played by Chow Yun-fat exudes a powerful kingly aura, and has the momentum of "talking and laughing, and disappearing in smoke". The contrast with the childish innocence after unemployment is the highlight of the film. As for Stephen Chow’s "Sacred Gambler", the comedy atmosphere is obviously aggravated. Although it did not continue Fa Ge's domineering, but the nonsensical funny section during the period also added alternative colors to the film, playing a unique way of gambling. Count, still make the film proud of the box office. Later, "The Gambler" played by Andy Lau and other casino heroes also contributed to the screen. The plot inevitably has twists and turns and stumbles, but in the end it can always dominate the casino and laugh proudly, accompanied by beautiful women, accompanied by money, just movies. While creating casino myths for us, it also makes it difficult to continue the classic gambling film series. NO 06 "Swordsman and Swordsman" series 1, "Swordsman and Swordsman" (1990) 2. "Swordsman and Swordsman: Unbeaten in the East" (1992) 3. "Swordsman and Swordsman: Unbeaten in the East" (1993)
People of the storm: Brigitte Lin, Jet Li, Xu Guanjie, Joey Wang Behind the scenes: Hu Jinquan, Tsui Hark, Cheng Xiaodong, Li Huimin
Comment: Bloodthirsty hero, gentle beauty, turned into a sea of laughter. One person has made a series of classics. There is no doubt that when people think of Tsui Hark's "Swordsman and Swordsman", the first thing people think of is the undefeated oriental created by sister Qingxia. Although there are many eye-catching celebrities like Jet Li, Zhilin Guan, and Li Jiaxin in the film, and many famous martial arts such as the Bamboo Forest Fight and the Black Wood Cliff Fight, you have to admit that your eyes will follow that one all the time. A beautiful man in a red shirt. The magical nature of the bloodthirsty hero, the humanity of the gentle beauty, her self-confidence and self-sufficiency, and her self-pity and self-love all make this character full of legends and become an unsurpassable classic in our hearts. At the same time, it also made the sequel "Unbeaten East" released in the same year. "Rising from the East" has a box office guarantee. "The heroes of the world come out of my generation, and the years of entering the rivers and lakes are urged. In the chat and laughter of the grandeur, the life is drunk." This song "Journey to the Rivers and Lakes" seems to cover the tone of the entire movie, which makes people feel melancholy, and it is the end of the film. , The moment the East was unbeaten falling from the cliff, with that intoxicating chuckle disappearing under the black wood cliff, our hearts were afraid that we would remember this classic forever. NO 05 "Police Story" series 1, "Police Story" (1985) 2, "Police Story 2" (1988) 3, "Police Story 3" (1992) 4, "Police Story 4" (1996) 5, "New Police Story" (2004)
Characters: Jackie Chan's partner girl: Brigitte Lin, Maggie Cheung, Michelle Yeoh, Yang Caini, Wu Chenjun Behind the scenes hero: Jackie Chan Comments: Fighting, bloody police, showing the true qualities of justice. Of course, Jackie Chan’s signature work "Police Story" series is also on the list. Although the sequels of the film have achieved good box office results, they are the most influential and most impressive for Hong Kong film circles, Jackie Chan himself and the majority of the 80 generations. Even count the first part of "Police Story". As a concentrated expression of Jackie Chan's style, "Police Story 1" combines various elements such as martial arts, gunfights, comedy, and evidence. It can be said to be a milestone work of Jackie Chan's successful husband's transition to a big brother in the film industry. Of course, the joining of big-name celebrities such as Brigitte Lin and Maggie Cheung also impressed us. Although the roles of several beauties in the film are similar to those of the Bond girls in the 007 movie, with the background of flowers, the film also has more highlights. Martial arts movies focus on scenes, which are always reminiscent of the lack of plot, but the "Police Story" series has a rigorous structure and strong drama, passion and relaxation, which makes us hooked. In addition, in addition to boldly adding humor elements to the exciting action scenes, Jackie Chan's fighting performance is also a highlight that attracts people's attention. During the filming of "Police Story 1", he was personally injured and almost paralyzed. He said, "You will win if you love to work hard." I believe it is this hard work that made the role of Chen Jiaju and the entire series of movies shine. More dazzling brilliance. NO 04, "A Chinese Ghost Story" series 1, "A Chinese Ghost Story" (1987) 2, "A Chinese Ghost Story 2" (1990) 3. "A Chinese Ghost Story 3" (1991)
Personalities: Leslie Cheung, Joey Wang, Jacky Cheung, Tony Leung Behind the scenes: Xu Hark, Cheng Xiaodong
Comment: Love the female ghost, infatuated with the scholar, never regret the difference between Yin and Yang. There is no shortage of themes of human and ghost love in the movie world, and Wang Zuxian and Leslie Cheung's version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and the sequel "A Chinese Ghost Story" are undoubtedly the best of their kind. "Shili Pinghu is full of frost, and every inch of green silk is melancholy. Looking at the moon shape, I only envy mandarin ducks and not immortals." Although it is a familiar story about Liao Zhai, Xu Hark made the film show a shocking effect. Of course, it is not only the poignant plot, the atmosphere of ghosts and the tense fighting between ghosts and gods, but the unforgettable bond between one person and one ghost makes us have mixed feelings. Wang Zuxian, the face that fades out of the screen but has not been forgotten by us, the skin is like fat, charming and stunning; Leslie Cheung, the figure that left the world but still makes us miss us, kind, loving, handsome, and peerless; at the moment when you are undecided, The two have already taken your soul away. In "A Chinese Ghost Story: Three Ways", Tony Leung, a heart-throb, provokes the backbone. Although both acting and all kinds of impeccable skills are impeccable, it may be influenced by preconceived ideas, regrettable. It failed to continue the glory of the first and second installments. Unforgettable, the low-hanging water pavilion platform with gauze tents, the sound of the piano is melodious, the love of female ghosts, the infatuated scholars, the encounter between humans and ghosts, and no romance. Although the lover did not get married in the end, this ending inevitably made us sad, but it is precisely because of this incomplete perfection that Xiaoqian's ethereal image of flying in white clothes and Ning Caichen's passionate and focused eyes are deep in our memory. The place has become a permanently frozen picture. NO 03 "The True Colors of Heroes" series 1, "The True Colors of Heroes 1" (1986) 2, "The True Colors of Heroes 2" (1987) 3. "The True Colors of Heroes 3" (1989)
Influential figures: Chow Yun-fat, Ti Lung, Anita Mui Behind the scenes heroes: Tsui Hark, Wu Yusen
Comment: Sunglasses windbreaker, cynical, crazy only for Xiao Ma. If the gangsters described in the "Young and Dangerous" series are unavoidable from the green and fearless label, then "The True Colors of Heroes" is the underworld legend in the world of mature men. The 1986 "Heroes" not only broke the Hong Kong box office record with a box office of nearly 35 million, and laid the foundation for the sequel, but also created the craze for hero movies, letting a suave and cynical cool guy become us Worship idol, yes, he is the little Ma brother who has influenced our generation! Black sunglasses, black windbreaker, holding two guns in his hands exudes a cold and solemn coolness. It can be described as popular with thousands of ignorant girls and deterring millions of passionate young people. It is not only the impact on the appearance, but the heroic spirit of Fa Ge deduced even more. We are heartbroken. Even if the tiger falls into the sun and the chaos is unsuccessful, Xiao Ma is still the heroic and never giving up. "I want to fight for a sigh, not to prove that I am great, I want to tell people that I have to take back what I lost!" When he shouted at the big brother played by Ti Lung, I seemed to see it. The deepest emotion in Brother Xiao Ma's heart. It has to be said that although Ti Lung and Leslie Cheung are among the top two protagonists in the film, their acting skills are even more impressive, but they were mostly robbed of the limelight by Brother Xiao Ma. Always being a model, never being surpassed, although the hero's twilight period is sighing, but the heroic dream in our hearts will not fade, Xiao Ma will always be the Xiao Ma in our hearts. NO 02 "Young and Dangerous" series 1. "Young and Dangerous in the Rivers and Lakes" (1996) 2. "Young and Dangerous: Raptors Crossing the River" (1996) 3. "Young and Dangerous: A Hand Covering the Sky" ( 1996) 4. "The Invincible Battle of the Young and Dangerous" (1997) 5. "The Dragon and the Tiger Fighting of the Young and Dangerous" (1998) 6. "The Hung Hing Thirteen Sisters of the Young and Dangerous" (1998) 7. "The Young and Dangerous" "Hongxing Dafei Brother" (1999)
Personalities: Ekin Cheng, Chen Xiaochun Behind the scenes heroes: Wang Jing, Liu Weiqiang
Comment: The bloody wind, the wind is surging, the loyalty of the arena is unforgettable. "Young and Dangerous" is probably the most troublesome series of films for parents and teachers. Almost all post-80s have been baptized by it, and it is absolutely amazing for post-80s, especially boys who were in their passionate years. It is not only the gangster movie that is so simple, perhaps the fascinating thing about "Young and Dangerous" is that it fights with flesh and blood in modern markets, and entrusts the legend of the growth history of gangster teenagers with the stories of ordinary people. And the two starring roles of Ekin Cheng and Chen Xiaochun, their tough aura and stubbornness in place have made the two roles of "Hao Nan" and "Pheasant" more appealing. The burning rivers and lakes of love, the courage of the brothers, although the bloody smell of reality is permeated in the film, it also exudes the fearlessness of youth. From the opening "Man in the Rivers and Lakes" to the ending "The Winner is King", with the addition of various extras with unconnected plots, the "Young and Dangerous" series has grown to thirteen, which is enough to witness its popularity. . Without the underworld background, we can see that the protagonist started from scratch and grew from a small person to a giant. I believe it is precisely because the film is full of this kind of power to inspire young people that it will be sought after by many post-80s. NO 01 "Once Upon a Time" series 1, "Once Upon a Time in the Sky" (1991) 2, "Once Upon a Time" (1992) 3. "Once Upon a Time in the Lion King" (1993) 4, "Once Upon a Time" "The Lion of the Western Regions" (1997) 5. "Once Upon a Time in the Dragon City Fighting Overlord" (1994) 6, "Once Upon a Time in the Wind of Kings" (1993) 7, "The Young Once Upon a Time in the Iron Monkey" (1993)
Personalities: Jet Li, Zhao Wenzhuo, Donnie Yen Behind the scenes heroes: Tsui Hark, Wu Siyuan
Comment: Kung Fu is on the body, righteous, and the iron-blooded man should be self-improvement. Huang Feihong, this legendary master of martial arts in history, has always been a popular figure in the film industry who is willing to challenge. Although several people have portrayed this role, there is no doubt that Jet Li’s version of Huang Feihong left us behind. The deepest impression. Throughout the "Huang Feihong" series of movies, three of the most acclaimed movies are "Aspirational Rising Clouds", "A Man Becomes Self-improvement" and "Lion King Contest". Jet Li's Huang Feihong is solitary and a little naive, heavy and steady. But sometimes shy, showing chic and heroic spirit in every move, showing a kingly demeanor between his gestures, very wise, speechless, and fearless. Paired with the thirteen aunts played by the beauty Guan Zhilin, the brilliant collision of Chinese and Western colors adds a moving sentiment to the film. Since the protagonist is a martial artist, the wonderful fight in the film is naturally the top priority. Under the lens of the ghost director Tsui Hark, the film has lived up to the expectations and gave us the most direct, fierce and purest memory of the knight. "Facing thousands of waves with pride, blood is like the red sun", singing a song "A man is self-improvement" to reminisce about our previous history of passionate growth, as written in the lyrics, "Let Haitian gather energy for me, Go and break things for my ideals", the post-80s will be self-improvement!
