Why can't the current martial arts films capture the texture of the 90' s martial arts films?

First of all, as far as my personal understanding of the film is concerned, the texture of the film is restricted by many factors, not only the clarity of the film source itself, but also the influence of lighting, scenery and photography; The change of a certain factor can change the original texture of the film. Therefore, film texture is a very broad concept.

Secondly, the texture of martial arts films in the 1990s cannot be generalized. Every movie has a different texture because of its style and photography. It is also difficult to draw a conclusion if we want to give a unified texture to the martial arts films of the 1990s, but there are many representative martial arts films to discuss, such as Tsui Hark's films.

Thirdly, if there is a style in Tsui Hark's martial arts films in the 1990s, besides Cheng Xiaodong's unconstrained martial arts guidance, there is also a low-level photography technique originated from Tsui Hark, which makes the movements of the characters more vivid and extraordinary. Coupled with the bohemian character of the characters themselves, Tsui Hark's films have the texture mentioned by the subject.

Of course, to say that the current martial arts films basically rely more on special effects technology. However, the means of the 1990s were not only time-consuming and laborious, but also failed to keep up with the needs of the times. In addition, the director of martial arts films (such as Tsui Hark) is originally a technical controller, so he must treat his works with the best technology to improve his film technology.

From a technical point of view, it is entirely possible if today's martial arts films reproduce the style of the 1990s. Helpless, film is a commercial art, and the producers and producers are forward-looking and money-oriented. They will definitely consider the market, audience and influence, and will not choose to make a retro film.

Finally, from the director's point of view, they will remake their own electric works, but they will never repeat their own works. Moreover, under the influence of capital power, 99% directors will not remake the martial arts films of the 1990s because of personal feelings. Instead of this, it is better to directly repair the old film.
