Member INCspot Posted November 2, 2011 Member Share Posted November 2, 2011 I notice that of all of the editions of Jackie Chan's older movies (pre-Snake in the Eagle's Shadow) that he made for Lo Wei, it seems like while there are English, French, German, Japanese, and American releases, it doesn't seem like there are any Hong Kong versions of these older movies - or if there are, they're pretty rare (like the Winners Video release of Shaolin Wooden Men). Jackie's Lo Wei movies aren't as good as some of his later work, but they're still entertaining, and it surprises me that companies like Mei Ah or Deltamac don't release these movies like they have Dragon Lord, Snake in the Eagle's Shadow, etc. Is there a reason for this? Rights issues, lack of interest in Jackie's older films, etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Petie Posted November 3, 2011 Member Share Posted November 3, 2011 I know that there is a pretty good Hong Kong Legends version of "New Fist of Fury" that you might want to check out. But bear in mind that it is Region 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member David Rees Posted November 3, 2011 Member Share Posted November 3, 2011 I think its just lack of Interest in Hong Kong. There was a good remastered HK dvd of Fearless Hyena and a Korean remastered release of Spiritual Kung Fu Available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
