Perhaps Taoism Drunkard and The Young Taoism Fighter?

Also, I heard we're finally getting The Champions, hope this is true.

Ha!  September is a stacked month!  Obviously stoked about the Taoism set, but also have never seen the Champions. Great month!  I might have woken up every 10 minutes to refresh UK Amazon last night looking for early info

It's funny now that you look back at the clues that it's quite obvious that it was futbol related but everyone was saying Shaolin Soccer lol ...I even checked CFK to see if they would drop any hints but Arne & his crew kept to the NDA. Looking forward to their segment on the HK celebrity soccer team

Wonder why they skipped Miracle Fighters 2, and released Miracle Fighters 3 & 4 instead.

I don’t think fortune star owns the rights to this one and I’m not even sure there’s a good copy of it. I’ve not seen one better looking than the old vhs copy. But I also don’t know what’s been floating around the back channels

It wasn't related to that at all, at least mine weren't 🤣 My clues were strictly related to the Taoism set, lol. Basically "look to today" was in reference to the US release of The Miracle Fighters and "no second chances, but third and fourth dances"... couldn't get Shaolin Drunkard (the second film), but the third and fourth films. But on that note, Chemical Lemon is right, that's the one FS doesn't have, as it's sadly sitting with First Films... and the rest of that catalog that seemingly no one can get (i.e. no Master of the Flying Guillotine)

So funny enough, even though I'm working on this, I could've sworn it was an October release, lol. If all goes well, it will indeed have the alternate Cantonese track as an option with Yuen Biao's theme song 😉

[ironfistedmonk]

Those Crazy Yuen bastards!  Don't think I've seen Young Taoism Fighter, surprised Shaolin Drunkard wasn't picked up, different rights holder?  

Was gonna grab the HK blu of The Champions but glad I held off now, keep em coming Eureka!

I'm not really objective as I love Wang Yu a lot, but here are some of my favorite movies of his :

Rage of the masters

Iron man

Furious slaughter

The invincible sword

The lantern street

Asia Pol

The sword of swords

Trail of the broken blade

The man from Hong Kong

My son

The brave and the evil

Showdown

The invincible

The fast fists

Seaman n°7

Four real friends

The great hunter

The double double cross

 

I didn't mention his most famous movies at the Shaws' and some other ones, but these ones are very good for me.

 

 

*takes a couple notes* i've been trying to watch Seaman no 7 for a minute now but can't seem to find it

I think you'll like A Queen's Ransom. Tanny Tien looks hella good in this & Judy Brown in her only role in a HK film is kinda sexy too even if I was lmao during her steamy scene with Lazenby.

I place an order for QR tonight. I am not unfortunately into those spiritual kung fus but more serious 70s action feels safe pick.
