Chris Poggiali or Frankie? 1 hour ago, Niklaus Vogel said: I am very disappointed that Frank Djeng is not involved in doing the commentary. First TAI CHI MASTER, now this. I am so glad Frank did the commentary for both FIST OF LEGEND (Superb) and BODYGUARD FROM BEIJING (excellent, especially all the parts about Hong Kongers' anxiety of the China handover) but why couldn't 88 Films let him do these three as well? For period films like TCM and FSY 1 and 2 having Frank explain the various cultural elements and especially Josephine Siao's wordplay humor would've been most welcome. Yes, definitely a bit of a letdown for sure. Frank could've had a field day with this one 56 minutes ago, Drunken Monk said: Peter Glagowski says both films are totally uncut.

Member lilmanjs Posted September 4 Member Share Posted September 4 The Project A set on their own site says shipping now, but am curious what that exactly means. Like if you got it through them direct, you get it well before October 15th? Or that no matter where you pre-ordered from, it will ship out soon? Wish they'd make it more clear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admit I got second hand embarrassment when they (Frankie and Pete G.) interviewed Bruce Le during his Game of Clones Drafthouse tour. I mean KingSigy was okay but Frankie needed to tone it down a notch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get how or why he has such a big following on Twitter. But good for him I guess. Edited September 4 by bickle14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member AslanBey Posted September 4 Member Share Posted September 4 I'm a big fan of master KungFuBob. He is also a little reason why I buy 88 releases. But I find the project a and fongsaiyuk main coverarts kinda boring. Both doesnt reflect (in opposite to all of his other artwork) the action and fun and entertainment etc. of both movies. I find this disappointing because on the shelf one will first see the main coverarts (which is not as inviting as the single coverarts). But the coverarts for the single movies...... those are delicious master. Nice nice nice. I hope they come with posters. Thank you for your effort. 10/10. Exactly what those movies deserve. And considering the release itself: Yessssssssssssssss baby. One of my alltime favourites. Thank you very much 88. Keep them coming. Maybe next one "new legend of shaolin" (please)?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Killer Meteor Posted September 4 Member Share Posted September 4 Good news. 88's release of THE SHADOW BOXING has the correct Cantonese audio track, contrary to the packaging. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Yggdrasil Posted September 4 Member Share Posted September 4 8 hours ago, Yihetuan said: So this was cut for animal cruelty (horse falls) for its original UK release but has it survived the BBFC this time? I remember two UK releases many years ago of a horse charging through a straw wall and the other falling off a cliff into the river below. One was called The Blade and the other one was Blade of Fury. Both equally shocking and more importantly both equally shocking they escaped the BBFC unscathed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Katakuri Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 It’s amazing how once a certain actor’s floodgates open, we get all kinds of releases from all boutique labels. Case in point Jet Lee. Whose floodgates you want to see open soon? For me I’d love to see Andy Lau’s early career get the boutique label love soon. I know we’ve had a couple already, but he’s done so much in the late 80s and throughout the 90s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of fans shit on this movie but it's an underappreciated classic. 2 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordering directing from them and it will ship now. The indie retailers will likely ship it early too. Amazon or someone like that wouldn't.
