Not just the superior picture but also for having lossless 5.1 audio, something the US bluray lacks. Here's hoping for the same extras though. Maybe some Mike and Arnie commentary???? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bringing this list of hints back up as it seems like the circled clues are going to be receiving a 4K UHD release (e.g. the circled "D" is for the Drive 4K release). I wouldn't be surprised if "DF" was a 4K release for Dragons Forever... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member AslanBey Posted February 7, 2022 Member Share Posted February 7, 2022 Can someone summarize in short, whag kind of movies "the seventh curse" and "drive" is?? Are they (nice) martial arts movies? Worth picking up? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok there is a fightesque scene where monks attack some other people in the seventh curse but it looks like this is definitely not my cup of tea. Drive looks interesting though. I dont know anything about it but i'll check it out. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I highly recommend it being one of Mark Dacascos very best playing a man named Toby Wong. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Drunken Monk Posted February 8, 2022 Member Share Posted February 8, 2022 I have no idea why they would bother but MVD have announced that they too will be putting out a UHD release of Drive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the original Hong Kong theatrical poster for THE KILLER METEORS, and yes, it is epic cool! I'm not sure of the artist's name, but they did lots of poster art back in the day. Based on the style and technique it looks like the same artist that did other classic painted posters like THE NEW ONE-ARMED SWORDSMAN and SHAOLIN MANTIS. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It captured the likeness of the cast members so well. Besides Mark of course. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Ramji Posted February 8, 2022 Member Share Posted February 8, 2022 (edited) Yo! What’s up, been a long time. So I’m umming and ahing over the upcoming Black Cat release. Obviously in an ideal world I would pick up everything but money is tight and there’s so much coming up I might have to prioritise a little. I’ve never seen it but it kinda looks a bit cheap and not particularly exciting? No great action/stunts etc. Am I in the wrong?
