My Disciples of shaolin and Chinese boxer are on their way since yesterday or the day before, according to 88.

Oh, yes, I remember about the cover art, @KUNG FU BOB !

Maybe you could do covers for Spectrum too ? They speak English, too.

Regarding the plot of Disciples, I would say that the plot is also similar to the one of The Big Boss..

I have been approached by Spectrum about something they are working on. :bigsmile:

I agree, DISCIPLES does have a BIG BOSS feel to it.

I got my copy of Disciples through yesterday, rushed out a quick unboxing video for anyone still to get their hands on it or curious to see what's inside the box :)

Really happy to see some excellent @KUNG FU BOB sketches inside the booklet this time around as well as the glorious cover art.

Please stick around to the end of the video for a wee update on my next giveaway for the channel,

which I'll kickoff very soon.

No just a dedicated 88 films fan like you and every member here that also goes for Eureka too. I'm just your normal orderer who usually orders day 1 and i ordered this from 88 films.

@KUNG FU BOB's artwork is glorious, as ever.

Just a great packaging of a great film all around.

Thanks brother @Karlos! And YOU have an excellent article published in the DISCIPLES OF SHAOLIN booklet- congratulations!

Shiiiiii......

Damn ....

Does the man in the middle show his middlefingers 🤣🤣🤣

Hahahaha, no! It's a character played by Gordon Liu and he is doing some ritualistic, magic hand postures with double-fingers. I guess I should've made that more clear. :tongue:

I think they knew my work because they are Hong Kong film fans and saw the stuff I did for other releases.

Does anybody know if you rent 88 Films titles via Amazon Prime you get different language options? There's a couple of movies that I didn't pick up but I thought I might rent, Story of Ricky being one but when I found it on Prime it looked like just the dubbed version. I've never rented a movie on Prime before and I don't know if there are options to change to Cantonese with subs, i'm not interested in dubbed versions.

it's incredible. after the package (pre-ordered) from Zavvi was lost, I reordered directly from 88 films and it is 2 weeks since I have not received anything and the tracking is blocked. Ricky Oh I can't have it. I give up and will only buy from Amazon in the future.:laluot_20:

I'm consistently blown away by your art Bob!!! I need one of those old school montage posters with all of your covers in a compilation or something :D I know it's been said countless times, but I'm loving the covers brother!!

 

Also, I'm constantly having to pinch myself with all of the Shaw Bro/Old School Martial Arts love these days... I'm still having PTSD from the days of luckily getting one dvd release a year... At first my wife was like "Oh cool, a new Karate movie is coming out for you" now it's "...wow great more karate movies, don't you have enough?...." :lol:
