Member Master with OK Fingers Posted January 23, 2023 Member Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) Does anyone know if there is any of the special edition box set releases that were released again with only a slipcover? I didn't realize that the 2nd run on The Young Master came with slipcover? I thought it was just the Box style release and then a standard blu-ray case version. I recently picked up The Young Master with a slipcover only after noticing someone's tweet of their collection. I would love a slip for AOG, did Armour of God have a slipcover release? Also Righting Wrongs, I would love a slipcover for this as well. I just like the uniform look of the slipcover. The height of the boxsets look so out of place on the shelf lol Edited January 23, 2023 by Master with OK Fingers 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member thelastweaponmaster Posted January 24, 2023 Member Share Posted January 24, 2023 Any chance of the older "classic" Shang-kuan Ling-feng films to be released such as "Back Alley Princess" or Chinatown Capers" or the Hui Brothers classics such as "Security Unlimited" or "Games Gamblers Play"? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member panzer Posted January 24, 2023 Member Share Posted January 24, 2023 I would LOVE to see some Hui Brothers get restored and released. The Private Eyes and The Contract are hilarious movies. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member AlexanderFu Posted January 24, 2023 Member Share Posted January 24, 2023 Snake and Crane arrived, and to tell you the truth I was not expecting such a nice package. 88 Filma nailed it with this one. Only thing is that the poster is so big, I'm not sure what size frame (again!). I almost bought a few frames beforehand, but I'm glad I didn't. Props to the package designers! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll buy this if it is a major improvement over that as I think this movie is underrated big time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised if the Shout one was a new restoration as I don't think they do stuff like that themselves. But I don't know for certain, I'm only speculating. 88 Films want to improve on everything with this one to top their previous release which was one of their first four Jackie Chan releases. They've learned a lot since then and upped their game in major ways, so I think it's going to be pretty damn good. 11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Drunken Monk Posted January 26, 2023 Member Share Posted January 26, 2023 I've never seen Battle Creek Brawl so avoided buying it first time around. I may have to support 88 Films this time around and pick this one up. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Yihetuan Posted February 10, 2023 Member Share Posted February 10, 2023 I remember 88 was supposed to release a slew of CAT III films this year. Taxi Hunter and The Untold Story are the only 2 so far or did I miss any other announced title? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
