Funny moment in the movie Monkey King 2023

Spoilers for the new movie 

I like this scene, in the new movie at this time “Monkey King movie 2023”, he puts up 8 fingers instead of 10. Guys and Girls he can’t count either. 🤣

Side note: what if he didn’t beat up 100 monsters what if he lost count 😅

Heyo, how's it going? I saw that you're doing The Monkey King (2023) x reader and was wondering if you could do this request.

Picture this

Monkey King and Reader (who is also immortal) obviously have an attraction towards each other, but unknown to either of them, the Dragon King also is pining for the Reader and desires for her to be his queen. So, when Lin "betrays" Monkey and sees that the Dragon King is forcing Reader to be his queen, we both know how upset he'll get and he'll do whatever it takes to get her back. When he does, he vows that when his imprisonment is finished, if she'll allow it, he'll ask her marry him.

I hope it's not too much to ask, but this seems like it'll be interesting. Have a good day/night!

I love this idea!

Thank you so much for being so patient btw, I just needed to procrastinate for a while to get my mojo back

You’re only a handful of centuries old, but you’ve made a good impression on the population of China as a powerful and just being

And you met the stone monkey during his time battling demons when he was nearly overwhelmed but you provided backup

The two of you gradually became good friends (despite his arrogant attitude)

It seemed that Monkey was missing the little voice that was supposed to tell him to quit while he was ahead, so you acted as that voice

Most of the time, he listened

And you found his rambunctious attitude weirdly charming

Sure he could be a bit of a shmuck at times, but he was nice enough to you (you got special treatment since he saw you as an equal (he’s also lowkey a simp for you))

After a while, his fondness for you gradually became not-so-platonic

And you can each tell you’re into each other (neither of you are great at hiding it) but neither of you have really made the first move

Monkey’s reasoning being that he wasn’t sure if he’s good enough for you (although he wouldn’t say that out loud)

However, unbeknownst to either of you, the Dragon King had his eyes on you and had every intention of making you his queen as he conquers the world

So when Lin gave away Monkey’s staff and gave DK the necessary power to get his greedy claws on you, he was furious

Knowing that someone else had affections for you was one thing, but no one disrespects you like that and gets away with it

after being trapped beneath Five Phases Mountain, he felt sorry and disappointed

he was glad that the Dragon King couldn’t have you, but now, neither could he :( and that broke his heart

then you visited the mountain with Lin to see him one last time, and it was very bittersweet

despite his imprisonment, he was glad you were safe now, and told you that once he gets out, if you’ll have him, he would like to be the one to to marry you

before Buddha could close the mountain, he took your hand in his, kissing it and telling you he loved you

Five hundred years was a long time, but luckily, you were patient (and immortal)

Dragon King – the god of water and dragons in Chinese mythology

Many dragons appear in Chinese folklore, of which the Dragon King is the leader. Also known as the Dragon God, the Dragon King is a prominent figure in Chinese art and religion. He is adopted by both Taoism and Buddhism and is the ruler of all water. Known as Long Wang in China, he has both human and dragon forms and can switch between dragon and human forms. Despite his intimidating and ferocious nature, Long Wan is regarded as a benevolent deity who brings good luck and chi energy to people living near the sea.

The Dragon King is a Chinese water and weather god. He is regarded as the dispenser of rain, commanding over all bodies of water. He is the collective personification of the ancient concept of the lóng in Chinese culture.

In East Asian cultures, dragons are most often shown as large, colorful snakelike creatures. While the dragons sometimes have qualities of a turtle or fish, they are most likely seen as enormous serpents.

While some named dragons are associated with specific colors, the dragon king can be shown in any shade. Like other Chinese dragons, he has a “horse-like” head, sharp horns and claws, and a hair-like beard.

Like many weather gods around the world, Long Wang was known for his fierce temper. It was said that he was so ferocious and uncontrollable that only the Jade Emperor, the supreme deity in Chinese Taoism, could command him. His human form reflects this ferocity. He is shown as a noble warrior in elaborate bright red robes. He usually has a fierce expression and poses with a sword.

During the Tang dynasty, the Dragon King was also associated with the worship of landowners and was seen as a guardian deity to protect homes and subdue tombs. Buddhist rain-making rituals were learnt in Tang dynasty China. The concept was introduced to Japan with esoteric Buddhism and was also practised as a ritual of the Yin-Yang path (Onmyōdō) in the Heian period.

龍王 〜 中国神話の水と龍の神 

中国の民間伝承には多くのドラゴンが登場するが、龍王はそのリーダーである。龍神としても知られる龍王は、中国の芸術と宗教において著名な人物である。道教と仏教の双方に採用され、すべての水の支配者である。中国ではロンワンと呼ばれ、人間の姿と龍の姿の両方を持っており、ドラゴンと人間の姿を行き来することができる。その威圧的で獰猛な性格にもかかわらず、ロン・ワンは海の近くに住む人々に幸運と気のエネルギーをもたらす慈悲深い神とみなされている。

龍王は中国の水と天候の神である。彼は雨を降らせる神とされ、あらゆる水域を支配する。彼は中国文化における古代の「龍 (ロン)」の概念の集合的な擬人化である。

東アジアの文化では、龍は大きくてカラフルな蛇のような生き物として描かれることが多い。龍は亀や魚の性質を持つこともあるが、巨大な蛇として見られることが多い。

特定の色を連想させる龍もいるが、龍王はどのような色合いでも描かれる。他の中国の龍と同様、「馬のような」頭部を持ち、鋭い角と爪を持ち、髪の毛のようなひげを生やしている。彼の人間の姿はこの獰猛さを反映している。彼は精巧な真っ赤なローブを着た高貴な戦士として描かれている。通常、獰猛な表情を浮かべ、剣を持ってポーズをとる。

世界中の多くの気象の神々と同様、龍王は激しい気性で知られていた。あまりに獰猛で制御不能だったため、玉皇大帝にしか彼を指揮できなかったと言われている。

唐の時代、龍王はまた、大地主の崇拝と結びついて、家を守り、墓を鎮める守護神と見なされていた。仏教の雨乞いの儀式は、唐代の中国に学んだ。この概念は密教とともに日本に伝わり、平安時代には陰陽道の儀式としても行われていた。

// SPOILERS FOR THE NEW MONKEY KING MOVIE //

I love monkey king attitude, like that's such a him thing he's so accurate,

"argh! Buddha speaks in riddles! No one understands him." The jade emperor was so real for this

the dragon wing of the west sea was so fruity for what

"I have a challenge of you, great sage.."

"not interested! ..what it is." I LOVE THIS MOVIE.

also despite the timeline being kinda messy on how things went, everything is in order. Him becoming king, becoming immortal, havoc in heaven, Buddha's challenge and trapping sun wukong under the mountain and journey to the west

Also idk why they made the dragon king evil, because I personally don't remember the guy wanting to dominate the world with the staff but I don't mind, that was fun!!

And Buddha is so wise, calm and friendly I love it (I know he's supposed to be like that, but it's fun to see it.)

the movie was so fun!! Wukong's so accurate but also real silly and fun. my favorite guy.

ALSO WUKONG'S IMMENSE LOVE FOR HIS STAFF AJSPDPS he destroyed like three gods because they took away his stick.

AND THE SCROLL AND SEALS THE MOUNTAIN. UUUHUHHHUUGHUHHJ

"And monkey? I'm sure he'll be out in no time.. 500 YEARS LATER."

AND TRIPITAKA LAMOAOAPAPAPPA he unleashed the horrors, canon

THE HEAVY METAL Y'ALL 😭😭

Now that I realized, the moment Tripitaka finds wukong, lin is probably dead.

While I am on the topic of Netflix's Monkey King, I have two thoughts about the character of The Dragon King.

WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD! SPOILERS AHEAD!

Thought 1: I was a bit dubious of making the Dragon King the main antagonist of the story, since in the original novel, Ao Guang isn't actually an antagonist, but rather a reluctant ally to Sun Wukong. This Dragon King does work as this strange mix of a watery Hades (Disney) and a male Ursula, but I was wondering about the choices behind it (don't get me wrong, I love water and sea-themed villains, I am just curious as of the adapting process). But having watched the movie now, I realize that this is actually another homage to Chinese culture - just not to the Journey to the West per se.

Netflix's Dragon King is ACTUALLY based on the character of the Dragon King from the animated movie "Nezha Conquers the Dragon King". You know, the late 70s Chinese animated movie? This movie was one of the big reasons people believe that, in "The Investiture of the Gods" novel, Ao Guang was a vicious being of chaos - when in fact he was not. It was in this movie that the Dragon King was depicted as a destructive antagonist all about causing storms and water-based disasters, and it also from there that the whole "The Dragon King eats children" comes from (the same "eat children" joke that the Netflix movie uses). Plus, the color palette or the new Dragon King and Nezha's Dragon King are also very similar, so the homage is pretty clear.

Thought 2: I am dumb sometimes - it took me a long time to understand why the Dragon King's final kaiju-like form looked like a bloated Godzilla. At first I thought they were just making a fat Godzilla joke or recreating the "giant Ursula" feel from the Little Mermaid final. Then I noticed that each time he was hit by the Monkey King, water flew out of his body, but I thought it was just some cool special effect. It was only when his body started twisting itself that I finally understood the joke: that the Dragon King had turned itself into a giant water balloon.

Which actually fills one of the eventual plot-holes there could have been. Indeed, it is shown that in this universe only the Immortals can become giants (Monkey King only gains the ability to grow in size when becoming fully Immortal), and yet the Dragon King is clearly not one of the Immortals given the way he talks about them. So how could he grow giant? Well here's the answer: he "cheated", he rather gorged himself with sea water like a giant sponge. It is basically the fable of "The Frog that wanted to grow as big as a Bull". Plus, of course, there is the obvious metaphor and image of the Dragon King growing as big and bloated as his own ego. Which in turns serves as a "mirror" for the Monkey King, because while he grows even bigger than the Dragon King, it is also the moment where Monkey snaps and becomes a madman (well, a mad monkey), his ego having grown even bigger than the one of the Dragon King.

The Original Location of the Ruyi Jingu Bang Has an Actual Geologic Site!

In a delightful coincidence given that we just finished Chapter 3 of Xiyouji for this book club, I happened to stumble across the fact that there is an area in the world which local people--in particular fishermen--believe to be the spot where Sun Wukong found (and stole) his golden cudgel. This is the Dragon Hole, the world’s deepest underwater sinkhole at just over 980 ft, located on a reef in the South China Sea. Blue holes are sinkholes that form through erosional processes in blocks of limestone while the limestone is on dry land and before the holes are flooded by sea-level rise.

Long called the “eye” of the South China Sea by locals, viewed from above the Dragon Hole looks dark blue due to its great depth compared to the light blue of the water on top of the reef. 

I’ve included a few photos below as well as a link to an article detailing more about this amazing piece of planet Earth’s features. It’s always a wonderful thing when mythology and geology combine!
