Was anyone yearning for a 4K release of Fearless Hyena 2?

I know it's probably because of a rights thing but considering that its a Frankenstein patch job that doesn't have much real Jackie Chan in it, couldn't have Criterion left it out of these new releases? Especially when so many other Chan films exist, unlike with Bruce Lee and Game of Death

Yeah but as I said there are so many other Jackie Chan movies to release. They are releasing seven others so why bother with this 8th?

I think it’s just available on their streaming platform.

It's only available on the Criterion Channel, their streaming service. There's a lot of movies on there that they own the rights to but haven't (and might never be) released on Blu-ray as part of the collection. I have seriously high doubts that Fearless Hyena Part 2 will become part of the Collection on Blu-ray. I am surprised it got a 4k remaster at all. 

And I'm sure they would've released other Jackie Chan films instead, but I'm sure it's a rights issue.
