Hello. Dear listeners, this is Lynn, the voice of the 5th Monkey. This is another emergency episode that is surprisingly. Not about Journey to the West, but also not entirely unrelated listeners. The movie, Creation of the Gods, One Kingdom of Storms or Function. The Ibuja Gofunyun. Well, his theaters in the USA and Canada on September 22nd, 2023 and a week later, starting from September 28th, 2023.
The movie will also come out in Hong Kong, China. Now over 60% of our listeners are from Canada and the USA, so we especially want to encourage you guys to go see this movie. The movie will be shown in original Mandarin with English subtitles and we promise you will have lots of fun. The movie is loosely based on the novel function, yet the investiture of the gods. The original novel is all over the place, so it's not as put together as Journey to the West, but it is a great window into how Ming Dynasty Chinese viewed our mythological traditions. Where did gods come from?
Where to draw the line between good and evil? What were the determining factors for dynasties to fall and rise? The story is an epic depiction of their answers to these questions, and this movie too, attempts to give its own answers from the point of a modern reader. This movie is absolutely breathtaking in its artistic details, and it's just as thoughtful in the script and character development.
You will fall in love with the movie in a new way every day and that's been our life since seeing the movie less than two months ago. The fact that we still have the energy to work on Journey to the West is really testament of how much we love the story. Otherwise we will just be completely consumed by this movie.
Do make time to see it in theaters. Go see Nilja, Go see our Luncheon. Go see the colorful array of Gods, Royals and beasts. It's a once in a lifetime movie experience that you will not regret. This movie took a lot of effort and love to make our team dreams every night. That someday journey to the West could be taken care of on the big screen in the same way. No one.
Paid us to do this promotion. It's just out of our very true hearts that we want this movie to succeed. We will keep on reminding our listeners when this movie comes out in the rest of the world. For the future of the genre, please go see this movie. This is. The 5th Monkey. And thank you for listening.
