Member Burnout29 Posted July 9, 2019 Member Share Posted July 9, 2019 What's the significance of the random eagle about to painfully land on one of Sammo's arms on the cover? Or maybe he's gonna pinch that dodgy looking wig off his head. That hairdo is tinkering on the same level as the simple JC Project A hairdo. Other two look much better. It's been ages years since I've seen any of these films so got a foggy memory on bird life in these films. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the taiwanese cut is supposed to be longer,but think thats lost Now I'm confused too... they advertise the films as completely uncut for the first time, and then say Eastern Condors is actually an edited version? Wouldn't that qualify as being cut? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member De Ming Li Posted July 9, 2019 Member Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) That's an bonus extra, the main feature will be of course the full uncut version. Edited July 9, 2019 by De Ming Li 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member TheFlyingPanda Posted July 9, 2019 Member Share Posted July 9, 2019 I'm supper stoked about Eastern Condors I hope its the definitive release. Of course the whole pack with The Iron-Fisted Monk and The Magnificent Butcher ( Two of my favorite ) Sammo films is a Treat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannot believe it is getting an uncut release here in the UK - how times have changed! Stunned to read that some are complaining about this set! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member saltysam Posted July 9, 2019 Member Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) i've seen comments on BD.COM about not liking animal cruelty (hate it myself) but i don't think i've seen anyone complaining about the set except for maybe one who thought Prodigal Son rather than Condors should be in the package.

Member Killer Meteor Posted July 9, 2019 Member Share Posted July 9, 2019 I must admit I HATE the sex scenes in IRON FISTED MONK (both rape and brothel). Very seedy. I bet Fung Hark-on had trouble getting a date after that film. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was on a poster for Eastern Condors: (in front of a rising sun (a symbol of the East/eastern). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anyone has the soundtrack CD for Dragons Forever can you please send me a PM... ASAP!! I'm also looking for a few HK VCDs so if anyone here has a big collection of VCDs please contact me.

Moderator thekfc Posted September 14, 2019 Moderator Share Posted September 14, 2019 I got the delay release email 2 days ago from Amazon "Hello,Unfortunately, the release date for the item(s) listed below was changed by the supplier, and we need to provide you with a new estimated delivery date based on the new release date: "Three Films With Sammo Hung (Eureka Classics) Blu-ray" Estimated arrival date: October 14 2019 - October 16 2019" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member thundered mantis Posted September 19, 2019 Member Share Posted September 19, 2019 I was psyched and all hyped with this BD release, but I just watched the trailer on my pc and thought video quality was like subpar DVD? Worst than FS editions for Eastern Condors and Magnificent Butcher. I watched them on a 2K monitor, dunno if that ruined the thing. The other Eureka releases I have seen are truly impressive in terms of PQ. What do you think? @Irongod2112? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other Eureka releases I have seen are truly impressive in terms of PQ. What do you think? @Irongod2112? Please don't go by the compressed YouTube trailer. The new restorations for all three films are excellent! The new 2K scans are very similar to what Last Hurrah for Chivalry & Hand of Death looked like. Bottom line is all three films have never looked or sounded better. Probably even better than the original theatrical runs. Please spread the word and if sales are good we can get even more HK films like this. Edited September 19, 2019 by Irongod2112 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member thundered mantis Posted September 20, 2019 Member Share Posted September 20, 2019 You got me on the hype side again!! Gonna buy both Lasth Hurrah and preorder the Sammo´s pack NOW. Thank you very much 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
