That looks amazing, I'll be running out of wall space soon! Out of curiosity, how big is Chow Yun-Fat's role in the movie? It's a rare one from him I haven't seen. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member AlexanderFu Posted June 30, 2022 Member Share Posted June 30, 2022 I ordered Flag of Iron and Legendary Weapons of China. 1st I got them on Amazon, and they sent me regular Discs when the description said 'Special edition'. Back they went. I told them the situation and they resent. Same thing. Back they went. So I said eff it and went to the 88 Films site. It cost a few $ more, but they get to N.Y. quick from The U.K. (Royal Mail beats the snot out of USPS any day! I hope Louis Dejoy, or whatever the hell his name is gets indicted with tRump!) Bottom line, I got both of them in Special Edition with the posters, which is what I was after if the 1st place. My suggestion is screw Amazon, go to the 88 site and get the better product! I bought everything they had, especially Killer Meteors and Human Lanterns - even got To Kill With Intrigue since it looks so good (No Poster though). In fact, the only 2 that didn't come S.E. was The Chinese Boxer and The Spiritual Boxer, I guess because they were released so long ago. Great customer service also! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adding onto that, every time I've preordered from the 88 Films website, I have received my order 1-2 weeks before the official release date, despite it shipping from the UK to the US. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I collect movies mainly, Thank you so much, that is very kind of you! I was lucky to get the Slipcover version with the poster from 88 Filma after Amazon sent me just the disc only version twice, which I sent back twice. If any chance some older slipcases/posters like Chinese Boxer, Spiritual Boxer or To Kill With Intrigue from 88 Films are for sale, please PM me! And thank you again for the king offer . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator KUNG FU BOB Posted July 2, 2022 Administrator Share Posted July 2, 2022 OH DAMN!!! 88's version of RIGHTING WRONGS will have 3 official versions of the film (Hong Kong Cantonese, Singaporean Mandarin, and English dubbed Export Cut) and a "hybrid cut" and an "ending randomizer" with even more previously unknown endings! Holy Hong Kong classics, Batman! Hard to believe how far Asian home releases have come since the days of we-were-lucky-if-we-could-find-a-shitty-quality-pan-and-scan-dubbed-bootleg or a re-edited, re-scored, re-named MirimAxe version.

Having the privilege of doing one of the audio commentaries for this I'm Happy to report the new re-master is beautiful. It's a real anomaly of a film from this era and Yuen's acting is incredible. A nearly perfect noir. If you haven't seen it, it's an absolute classic. Just don't expect tons of the usual action (which actually makes the movie great. 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday I was looking onto the bluray.com forum and there's a pretty informative thread on this 88 films release. On that thread, I think it's OldPangYu, clarifies the alternative endings have been edited by himself as "whatifs". So no new ending footage. I most surely will get only the 88 Films release anyway, as it's way cheaper and I'm sure it will also be great!! Kudos to VS anyway, as they managed to get some very juicy extras on their package. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think @KUNG FU BOB already said this but I was told by Frank Djeng theres actually a third ending with this edition that hasn't been released before. Based on what I was told, its really interesting! 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
