I will preface this by asking why is it that Chinese production companies, when faced with choosing an English title, choose the blandest, most unmemorable possible?
Case in point, the new wuxia romance drama Generation to Generation, which started out life with the much more romantic sounding A Decade of Nightscape Lights, before ending up with that bland title.
But, here we are whether we like it or not, eh? So, I’ll get on with the news story…
