Even more i would like to see the JetLi classics. FongSaiYuk getting the deluxe treatment with KungFuBob artwork would be mesmerizing.

 

Oh yeah, I'd love that!

Better yet, a FONG SAI-YUK double feature that includes the sequel too. The blindfolded alley fight when Jet uses all the katanas is one of my favorite scenes he's ever done.

Well 88 Films since your listening here's my Hong Kong Action wish list not a huge one since you and other labels have fulfilled many of my requests so thanks a bunch for all the work you and others have done at getting our favorites out there in their best video quality possible

Girls with guns

Angel and maybe Angel 2

Killer Angels

In the line of Duty 1-4 or 1-5

Dreaming the Reality

Princess Madam

Hong Kong Action

Jackie Chan's Who Am I

Hard Boiled-Long Shot I know but who knows in the future what will happen

The Killer- Same as Hard Boiled unlikely but I am sure should the opportunity arise you will make a huge attempt at securing the rights

I have to second just about everything mentioned already. But specific to SB also want to list a few that might not be on the radar or might have some obstacles getting or releasing. In particular now that 88 is releasing in the US maybe a couple movies that likely can’t be released uncut in the UK.  And as a general overview in addition to the always reliable chang cheh and Lau kar Leung, anything Sun Chung, Kuei Chi Hung, Chu Yuan, or Tang Chia is generally pretty great. And anything from Ho Meng Hua that’s tacky and tasteless also rates pretty well. Some random wishes in no particular order. 
 

Black Tavern

Finger of Doom

Valley of the Fangs

Duel for Gold

Kidnap

The Tea House

Big Brother Cheng

Big Bad Sis

Kiss of Death

The Drug Connection

The Lady Exterminator 

Deadly Angels

Killer Snakes

Revenge of the Corpse

Bamboo House of Dolls

Hong Kong Godfather

The Criminals (any of the series)

Murder Plot

Gangmaster

To Kill a Mastermind (obviously)

Demon of the Lute

Love this messages to 88! 

 

Dear 88 Films, 

much thanks to your contribution, we've been living a collector's dream and we still are. It's a wonderful dream to live. Times are crazy, prices are going wild, but we're here. Ordering, supporting, sharing the joy that comes with every new announcement, here where the family is. For all you've done to bring joy to our lives, thank you.

Now, do we want more Shaws?

Yes we do!!

Among your releases, there have been a few personal favorites of mine already, so as far as my wishlist goes, I'll take any kung fu and wuxia you send our way. However, there are a few that would mean more than others. 

First of all, more Lau Kar-Leung! Yes, Martial Club is preordered and I proudly own Shaolin Mantis, 8 Diagram, Legendary Weapons and Spiritual Boxer (sending photo as proof). Thanks for those! 

Add another vote to the following films already mentioned above by fellow memebers: The Kung Fu Instructor, Five Superfighters, Secret Service of the Imperial Court, Three Evil Masters, Treasure Hunters and Golden Swallow.

Here are a few more suggestions: Blood Brothers, 14 Amazons, Fastest Sword, The Imperial Swordsman, Clan Feuds, The Eunuch.

Till the next Shaws batch, I'll be looking forward to Tiger Cage trilogy and Righting Wrongs!

Stay great!

 

Love,

SN

Hello 88films, please do continue with the kung fu cinema of some variety. I love the Shaws but like a lot of others on this board I love to go a little further. You've exposed a lot of cult film fans to Shaws, perhaps now is the time to hit them with some underground goodness? 

The Loot / The Challenger

Would be a great place to start!

Whats up fellow fans?  I love the time we are living in.  It is so great for a kung fu fan.  I have been watching for many years back when many of us caught the bug here in the states, during Kung Fu Theater and Black Belt Theater.   I have all of the martial arts releases from 88, Eureka and Arrow.  I am missing a few booklets and slip covers.  Does any one of have any leads on these?  

88 - Crime Story

88 - Killer Constable

88 - Miracles

88 - The Protector

Eureka - City Hunter

Eureka - Drunken Master

Eureka - Wheels on Meals

Eureka - Zu Warriors

Like i said, i have every release but those above i am only missing the booklets and slips.  Has anyone seen these individual things for sale online?  Thanks in advance.
