i feel like this lakon was filmed really quickly, so that ch7 could rake their ratings back. usually.. Polyplus is decent about the little details in their lakons. however, there are quite a few 'stupid' flaws in this lakon. i call them stupid flaws because it wouldn't happen if they spent a little more time working on this lakon. first off, they didn't really set a specific setting for the lakon. is it supposed to be modern or not? i thought it was set in the old times when they had sword fights.. but then when Kwun was trying to make her mother take her medication, she was like "krao nee tong kaw chai
mook nom noi na ka" or something along those lines. i didn't know the slang "mook" existed back in the days. LOOL
the scripts.. the dialogues.. the terms they use are so messy. the pronouns.. "ka/jao (ka=i/jao=you)" then "khun/pom (khun=you/pom=i [m.])" ?!? if you speak fluent thai, you'd understand what i'm saying.
anyway.. i admit that i'm nitpicking on this version because it's such a classic.. i know that it would be soooooooo much better if they spent a little more time on the production... and i'm glad that Dida didn't make this lakon.
the scenery is great. i'm surprised because they filmed everything in Thailand, right? so props to them. other than that, the costumes are pretty.. i like the costumes in both versions.. they're both pretty in different ways. Kwan is a great Jaoying... a bit weaker than Nat, but I guess they want Jaoying Tuksika to be a tad bit softer this time. I know for sure that their aiming on the teenage group of audience.. that's why they chose Kwan and Vier, have lots of physical contacts between the main characters, and made the lakon softer, while the other version was MUCH more serious and barely focused on the couple.
LMAO at the "three kings" scene. that was the best. Kid pai dai!!
!!
the second couple is REALLY cute too! i love how their SO different, yet they're so attracted to each other. i think the second couple in this version are able to attract the audience's attention more than the second couple in the last version. Hell, even the THIRD couple are cute (Grawan+Benly)! I don't remember Meena's character, though. i think they added her, right? i have a feeling that she's gonna hook up when Rachit. ^^
How did they do the snow scene? It looks like the snowballs are done by computer graphic, though.
anyhoo.. yeah.. I like this version too.. aside from the flaws that make me frown everytime i spot them onscreen. lol
