Nope!

"To compose" is 组成, but a word like that is well into Upper Intermediate territory!

You can't really escape this topic if you're in China for long, can you?

If you just search for 三国演义, they shouldn't be hard to find. You might try a Chinese video site like Youku or Tudou.

There's more than one movie series, and I think there will be more in the future... There re also plenty of cartoons (many of them Japanese).

You're welcome! It can be hard to cover this stuff even at the Intermediate level, because so often the stories include words which refer to ancient titles, territories, traditions, etc. We'll do what we can, though!

Ha ha, sorry I missed this before!

I don't have a closet full of identical clothes, but I'm not even sure how many shorts I own... Wardrobe is not at the top of my life priorities, I guess!
