That's pretty weak of them though...:wondering

I see their reasons though..Someone who has stacked points could grab bunch of sale priced movies without using a dime at checkout..Hopefully Inspector wear skirts is on schedule that would be nice double88 feature with Last hero for near future.

I grabbed Righting Wrongs while it was discounted.  I've never seen it before and intend to watch the Ultimate Cut.  Which ending (titles only, no spoilers please) - do you all feel is most appropriate for the movie?  Is one considered by the film makers to be more representative of their vision to the best of available knowledge?

Anyone got the 88 films release of Twin Dragons? Was looking at a review on bluray.com and the picture quality gets slated quite a bit.

That guy literally hates everything and is a terrible reviewer with the worst takes!! Twin Dragons looks and sounds great, it's definitely the best you're gonna get considering 88 Films was not allowed to do a new scan. They did an amazing job with what they had to work with! If you like the film I doubt you'll be disappointed in this release. :)

Here's an example of how (un)reliable he is as a reviewer...

"Twin Dragons is a lot like The Hard Way. It is silly, fast, and very, very loose in that most special way only films that emerged during the 1980s can be. Of course, Twin Dragons and The Hard Way emerged during the early 1990s." (Reviewed by Dr. Svet Atanasov from bluray.com)

He emphatically states something, then completely contradicts it a few words later. :neutral:

88 should grab some classic Chow Yun-Fat titles. I'd gave everything for nice Bluray of ALL ABOUT AH LONG or AN AUTUMN'S TALE.

STORY OF WOO VIET needs also a decent release...

This one is gonna have a brand new Cantonese Dolby Atmos track using all original effects plus something VERY special I can't talk about. ;)

Trust me it will definitely be worth buying even if you have the excellent Eureka release which I also worked on. :)

Instant purchase for me also, as I arrived late to the limited Eureka edition party and I refrained from buying the standard edition. 

 

Pity is not a new remaster, will it be by chance region free? I know free BD players are the way to go nowadays, but anywalockquote widget

But it's not 4K my friend. It's the same remaster that Eureka used years ago, with a better audio track and at least a juicy extra/very special thing that may be worth the price of admission alone, according to our man @Irongod2112. Plus I bet some more extras and excellent packaging 88 Films has us accustomed to. Hence my desire of it being free region...

I didn't say it wasn't a 4K release or the same master. :)

Will there be a Atmos track for the second film?
