Member saltysam Posted June 17, 2021 Member Share Posted June 17, 2021 Apparently most of the upcoming 88 Releases (Disciples Of Shaolin, Chinese Boxer,Story Of Ricky) have been pushed back a month or so. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinese people speak Cantonese and the Europeans speak English. Fingers crossed. Yes we did do a hybrid Cantonese English track for Armour of God and it came out excellent! It should be on the upcoming release if all goes to plan. 11 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member starschwar Posted June 20, 2021 Member Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) I haven't watched it in anything but Cantonese on the HKL DVD for about 15 years, but... Spoiler Does this mean that the cult leader exclaims, "Oh Jesus!" when Jackie lights the dynamite? Or is my hazy memory confusing specific details of various versions?

Member Kwok Choi Posted June 23, 2021 Member Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) Two of these titles are scheduled for September 27th 2021 release. I have already pre-ordered one of the two stated for September. The last of the three titles has not been given a release date at the moment.

Pretty excited for these, especially Flag of Iron, Nice to see 88 still managing to get some more Shaw's titles released,before Arrow start whatever they have planned. I'll pickup all three. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member LiuYiLong Posted June 25, 2021 Member Share Posted June 25, 2021 For anyone curious as to whats in the 88 Erotic Ghost Story Boxset, here's a quick unboxing video. Will post a review of it tomorrow. It's far from being my favourite Cat3 movie, but I've been trying to support all the HK and East Asian movies that 88 films put out, so picked this one up too. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea i know zavvi, i'll write them the next days. I saw iron monkey on zavvi with the slipcase in the picture but i dont know whether they still sell the limited edition or not. Does anybody have experience in that case (chance for getting the limited edition although sold out on the originwebsite)? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah yes, sorry, I realized that you had talked about the limited releases right after I had posted my answer ! I bought Iron Monkey from them a while ago, but I don't remember if it had the slipcase. I just ordered Hand of death+the other one. I'll let you know if there is a slipcase when I'll receive it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you very much ! I preordered Disciples of Shaolin and Flag of iron. I didn't preorder The Chinese boxer because I already have the German blu rays releases (simple and Inked Pictures too, plus a Belgium dvd in French language, plus the IVL dvd...), but maybe I'll end up ordering it too when there will be discount sales on 88. Maybe I'm mistaken, but it doesn't seem that there are slipcovers for these new releases. And the good surprise when I placed my order yesterday, was that the final prices were cheaper than the ones announced on the links... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be very surprised if they don't, 88 Films generally make first wave slip covers for all their releases, My guess Is that they're still finishing off the details, the Amazon listings are pretty sparse, and I'm pretty sure there will be special features on the discs as well. Amazon pre-orders always go up really early, but I always try and hold off for 88's own pre-order as their member points scheme is well worth being a part off, the points mount up pretty quickly! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm happy to say that @ShawAngela you are mistaken, and @LiuYiLong is correct. These upcoming Shaw Brothers releases from 88 Films WILL all have slipcovers with brand-new artwork from...

Member LiuYiLong Posted June 29, 2021 Member Share Posted June 29, 2021 Had a few folks over on my instagram account curious about all the Shaw Brothers titles 88 Films have actually put out so far, so figured it was worth posting this here too. They're all numbered, and there have been 26 released in total over the past few years (with three more to follow on soon) I'm currently making up a short video breaking down each title and it's extras for my Youtube channel, I'll post a link here when it's done. But for now, here's them all together.... 20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
