Dreadnaught running time 95 mins uncut?

Dreadnaught running time 92 mins cut(2006) BBFC 

To be honest not to bothered wether it’s cut or not as it involves only animal scene but interesting netherless.

I gotta say…..watching Prodigal Sun,  I  rewinded that fight scene between Frankie Chan and Lam Ching Yi seven times. It’s just so swift and crisp .  Also noticed Yuen Biao doubling for Frankie a couple times. 
 

Bring on Skinny Tiger, Fat Dragon !

100% agree.. that fight has some of the crispest kung fu fight choreography I have ever seen! The only bad thing about it is that its too short!!!

Probably my favorite covers Darren Wheeling has ever done! Excellent work! Definitely pre-ordering since I love both films!

I noticed at the end of the Knockabout trailer, it says a Deleted Scene is one of the special features. I'm unaware of any deleted scenes for Knockabout. I would be amazed if it's some never-before-seen footage!

On the hkl disc there was a feature called Back to red that was an intro with Yuen Biao & Sammo performing moves against a red backdrop. I wonder if that's the scene? If it's not then I hope Back to red is also on the release as it's really cool.

Has anybody confirmed this yet? Irongod2112 did say the print he was working on was uncut but wasn't sure if this would be the final version.

[saltysam]

the 92 minutes would be the pal dvd speedup i imagine.

[Super Ninja]

Terrific new releases, will preorder asap! I have Knockabout HKL, but I don't own a physical copy of Dreadnaught in any shape or form so this is a very welcomed release. Great way to start a year, thanks Eureka!

And yes, there's defo improvement to be seen in the cover art department.

[WaverBoy]

I have both KNOCKABOUT and DREADNAUGHT on the ancient non-anamorphic Megastar DVDs, although surprisingly they were much better than other Megastar and Universe jobs because they had original mono soundtracks, and the widescreen prints were pretty decent for HK DVD releases of the era. Nice cover art too. But I can’t wait to unload them in favour of these new Eureka releases! Eureka is absolutely KILLING IT

Dreadnaught pre-ordered. Glad did not buy scandinavian collection some years ago and now see it 1st time ever as proper version. Great to have Lily Li interview in extra. Only thing don`t like is Bryan "dub" on the cover. If have to go for export name, better call him Beardy or even Postman. But no issues.

[OpiumKungFuCracker]

So the Warriors Two Eureka set doesn't have the old skool english dub? Meh, I'll pass on that. That was the only reason why I wanted to get it.

I would think a sterling new HD transfer for both films might be reason enough — can’t wait for mine, English dub or no

Warriors Two does indeed have the Classic old school English dub.

It even includes the restored English export cut.

Yeah, I was gonna say, I could have sworn I read the dub was included 👍🏻

[Omni Dragon]

I think it might have been the newer Fortune Star English dub that was omitted.

I thought that looked odd too, why not just put Leung Kar-Yan?

He has been known as Leung Kar Yan for so long now, it feels like referring to Yuen Biao as Bill or Jimmy Yuen.

I asked them to change it but Eureka wanted to use Bryan. Not the end of world but still strange I have to admit.

It's strange for me as I don't think i've ever heard him called Bryan before, only Leung Kar-Yan or Beardy.

[Cognoscente]

It's like Bill Yuen instead of Yuen Biao.
