From Netease:

Jin Ping Mei or The Plum in the Golden Vase (金瓶梅) is sometimes considered to be the fifth classical novel after the Four Great Classical Novels. It is the first full length Chinese fictional work to depict sexuality in a graphically explicit manner. Known for centuries as pornographic material and banned officially most of the time in China, the book is nevertheless surreptitiously read by many of the educated class. The newest film “Jin Ping Mei” featuring Japanese adult film stars will air in Japan in February 2010.

[From MOP:] Avatar is a 2009 epic American science fiction film written and directed by James Cameron who also directed Titanic.  The making of the film took 10 years. The film is estimated to have cost over $300 million to produce, and another estimated $200 million for the distribution and other costs, thus totaling to about half a billion dollars.

To worship this epic film, one netizen photoshops various stars into his own epic work. Sheng Dan Shi Zuo Pin = things that Sheng Dan Shi made

Chinese name: 变鬼(609猛鬼套房)
