Fantastic prints of both movies. Ihad seen them in the 90's on poor quality VHS. It was as if I saw both movies for the first time. Killer Meteors all in all was a perfect 10 +. Shaolin Wooden Men had a few over cranking but otherwise fantastic. GD Y-Y @GOLDEN DRAGON YIN-YANG I didn't pick up this release and haven't seen it. I'm curious if this one has the footage missing from the first US DVD release. Does it begin with JC's character in a dark room with candles, where they show the Chinese symbol for an animal style, then he performs it. Then same thing again, with another animal style, doing it for each of the five main animal styles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member massa_yoda Posted December 21, 2017 Member Share Posted December 21, 2017 I think it does @KUNG FU BOB, but I will confirm tonight if GD doesn’t get back to you before then. Update: yes, the beginning is Jackie with a black background (and candles) fighting against five masters, each with a different animal style.

Thanks @massa_yoda. Good to know that all the people that bought the Shout! Factory release aren't getting the heavily truncated version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too saw them in the day on crappy VHS prints. A real joy to see Jackie in this way. GD Y-Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member reason108 Posted December 22, 2017 Member Share Posted December 22, 2017 Damn, I may be a little too late to this. I had forgotten. I may have to see if I can get them still. But, to have them uncut would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to wait for the rumored 4K remaster of SHAOLIN WOODEN MEN that is supposedly coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
