Member AlexanderFu Posted June 14, 2022 Member Share Posted June 14, 2022 I had to buy a region free player just to watch Killer Meteors, I can't understand why all of a sudden everything is region B, when before it was A or A/B. Of course, after that I find out how to switch regions on my internal optical drive, but I have a new piece of equipment, always a good thing. only $129.00 total. Did 88 Films do 'To Kill With Intrigue' exclusively, or did other companies? That looks like it was shot onto glass, the best Blu-ray I have seen so far. The way the different color dresses Hsa Feng wears, and the masks, fireworks, flowers....etc. All the color in this movie is as perfect as I've seen in a HD product so far. I like the movie (Wang Tao's father is in it!), but forgetting all that, just by looks, it is the best I have seen. Perfect Blu Ray. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most, if not all, of the Jackie/Lo Wei titles are with Criterion in the US. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Master with OK Fingers Posted June 27, 2022 Member Share Posted June 27, 2022 I have just finished watching Disciples Of Shaolin for the first time and enjoyed it immensely. I have never been a great lover of the SB films. I had seen a few down the years, King Boxer(Good), 5 Venoms(Very Good), 36th Chamber (I'm sorry, but meh), Chinese Boxer (OK), One armed boxer (OK, almost identical to Chinese boxer). This is the first time I have seen a SB film and thought holy shit that was good. I have put it down to the star of the show Fu Sheng. I will be completely honest, I had never heard of him before but he blew me away. What a shame he was taken so young and what could have been? When Fu Sheng is on screen the action is fast paced and crisp, for me not what I've seen in other SB films, What I need to know is, was it him, the choreography or did it all just come together and culminate in this film? I cannot wait to watch another one of his, and I'm hoping that there is more of the same and that this isn't a one off. I have had a look online for some of his others and I have an idea, but I bow down to the more experienced viewers of these films and hopefully someone can point me in the right direction for where to go next. Fu Sheng set the bar for me in this and I want it to stay the same. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of those even have bit footage not on ivl dvds. At least boxer rebellion and four riders. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THE SEVENTH CURSE is a gonzo Hong Kong movie that I enjoy a lot, so getting the choice of multiple versions to watch, plus the plethora of extras including commentary tracks by Frank Djeng, Mark Walkow (a friend, and someone I've never heard an AC from yet), Arne Venema, and @Mike Leeder. Should be some great info from all these dudes. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So: 1. How is the movie considering martial arts/fighting? 2. Looks like a deluxe editon. 88 brings them more often in the last releases. So a question: could it be that they rerelease the first Jackiemovies (operation condor, miracles ...) in deluxe editions? That would be great³. (3. Please please someone release JetLi movies. Thanks.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
