Interesting to see what extras this will have. Like buses, Police Story 3 is not available for ages and 2 come along 🤣

Wow - is this the first time 88 and Eureka have both tackled the same movie?  The inevitable comparison reviews should be interesting!  I already preordered Eureka, but might reconsider if there's something especially different about this version.

Ka-Kui insists that there was ever only one bus.  Even though his view was obscured!  Mister Chu is innocent.

Is there a good vendor to preorder RIGHTING WRONGS from that ships to the US? Amazon UK’s shipping cost is for the birds, as is 88’s.

Not yet. I checked a few days ago but there are no preorders up at the moment. Not on the usual sites anyway.

To me , the definite and only  set you need to get for Police Story now  is the upcoming HDR Eureka set that features all three films . There are so many different blu ray versions that I’m honestly starting to think Police Story is…..a bit overrated? Like it’s excellent and I know we should be proud these films are getting the HD treatment, but man ,  7 different releases for the same movie ?  I was hoping First Strike would be getting a release .

If remember correctly Ti Lungs weapon was referred in ancient Ric Meyrs+co book as "umbrella skeleton of death"..Or was it EH..Quite ok title although it sounded funny "back then"...FG2 is great but have to pass it. It`s  about money issue but lack of shelf space and too many titles still in unseen department.+forthcoming months are flooded with interesting titles so some buying plans must be cancelled.+Don`t have pt 1 on BR either.

But Martial Club will be upgraded.

Is Righting Wrongs not available for pre-order anywhere yet? I thought I'd seen it online.

Also at zavvi, I just preordered it.

If you mean titles like THE KILLER and BULLET IN THE HEAD, those titles are in limbo.

Yep but the likes of Once A Thief & Full Contact are getting remastered german releases so possibly 2nd tier Woo is a possibility.

When the dub gives way to the Cantonese theme - magical.  Still anticipating a specific breakdown of extras vs the Eureka version, of course.

 

Have the Eureka already bought, but I will double dip on this easily if it has new extras. After all I double dipped on Police Story 1 & 2 getting both the Criterion and Eureka. Plus, also double dipped on Dragons Forever. The only reason, I didn't triple dip is I don't have a 4K player yet.

I still have my VHS of JUST HEROES, might dig that out and give it a watch soon.
