I have yet to watch that. I read the book, which was eye-opening since this is one of the most celebrated works of Chinese literature in China.
Do they show Liu Bei despairing that his strongest warrior (Zhao Yun) nearly died while saving his son from certain death? Despairing so much, that he drops his son head down so that his son’s head strikes a rock?
…which may be why his son is a fucking idiot unworthy of inheriting his father’s name?
Does Pang Tong, courtesy name “Young Phoenix”, realize he’s in a bad area when he finds out it’s called “Fallen Phoenix Pass”, tries to retreat, and is killed by an arrow?
Does Sun Jian swear an oath that he did not have the Mandate of Heaven relic with him, and that if he was lying, let an arrow strike him down? And then later on, he is killed by an arrow?
Does Cao Cao’s paranoia show, where he mistakenly assumes some peasants are preparing to kill him and his uncle, so they kill the peasants, and it turns out they were talking about preparing a pig for a feast? And then he kills his own uncle so that there are no witnesses to what he did on accident?
DOES IT SHOW LIU BEI CRYING TEARS OF JOY THAT A PEASANT HUNTER, UNABLE TO FIND GAME TO HUNT, WENT TO SUCH LENGTHS TO GET LIU BEI MEAT FOR A FEAST THAT THE HUNTER SACRIFICED HIS OWN WIFE TO PROVIDE THE MEAT?? AND CAO CAO REWARDS THE PEASANT WITH LIKE 40 GRAMS OF SILVER?
