Hi!! I hope you're having a good day!! I'm taking Mandarin right now, and for one of my assignments, we have to choose a movie in Mandarin to watch as a class, and I was thinking of doing one of the movies in the Wandering Earth series since you recommended it, but I didn't know if it would be better to start on Wandering Earth I or II, since Wandering Earth II is a prequel, which would you recommend watching first?? Thank you, and I hope you have a great rest of your day!!

omg hiii!!!! obviously im biased but the second one is superior in almost every way so go for that one if u want the better experience LOL

but to give an actual answer: theyre both pretty good standalone films! obviously there are references to the other movie and some recurring characters but you can watch either one first and not miss anything. It's kinda like watching the star wars prequels first and then the original trilogy, if that makes sense? so pick the one that seems most interesting to you from the description and/or trailer(s) etc, you'll probably want to watch the other one afterwards anyway skdkfkf

i watched the 1st one first and then the 2nd one but only bc i was in france when i wanted to watch an andy movie and they didnt have any on (french) netflix except for the great wall (2016) which btw sucks balls so i watched that in the airbnb my family rented akdkdkf

#i do want to stress that i *personally* really enjoy these movies and their themes and the way they were made #but that doesnt necessarily mean everyone has to agree akdkfkflf like ik some ppl think theyre dogshit (those ppl r wrong tho♡) #the reason why 2 speaks more to me is bc theres sm more threads that all come together #and in a way it feels very pacific rim-y how humanity will unite and support each other in the face of disaster/impending doom #like it's so hopeful and KIND and also.
