Is the one armed boxer an identical release though? Maybe their use of identical isn’t a strict interpretation of that word. I’d be fine with Arrow just scooping up the rights to films in the US that Eureka have in the UK but running out of time sounds more like a cooperative situation where Arrow is just distributing distributing eureka disc in the US. id be up for either version of this relationship to become more frequent. It seems like there’s more and more cooperation between labels to get good quality releases out. Third Window Films has been partnering with other labels a lot recently in order to afford the restoration and rights for several 90s and 00s Japanese films that would have never made it to disc otherwise. It’s really a great time for blu ray 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member bickle14 Posted May 14, 2022 Member Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) Watch the end of this video where they talk about what Frank is working on next. It sounds like the rumored Bruce Lee 4K set is confirmed. He also mentions a Jackie Chan box set. This definitely has to involve at least Police Story 3 UHD. Maybe Arrow will put that out if it's just the single film. But, if it is indeed a box set, then maybe Eureka is going back and re-releasing 1 & 2 in UHD and including 3.

A nice and plausible boxset could have Devil Hunters, Fatal Termination, Angel Terminators 1 and 2, Dreaming the Reality, A Serious Shock Yes Madam, Godfathers Mafia Blues and Widow Warriors. And maybe other movies like Lethal Panthers, Angel Enforcers, Princess Madam, Beauty Investigator, Way of Lady Boxer, and Dream Deadly Woman. Keep in mind I'm naming movies that I know have HD masters, that why I left out some others, like Killer Angels. Another boxset I'm dreaming is a 90's wuxia collection, with movies like Deadful Melody, Moon Warriors, Zen of Sword, 13 Cold Bloded Eagles, Handsome Siblings, Three Swordsmen, The Assasin, Invincible Constable, Legend of Liquid Sword, Deadend of Besiegers* and Sword Stained with Royal Blood*. Again, I'm naming movies with HD masters, maybe there are more I'm missing. *These movies are HD but from some prints with dual hardsubs. At least those are the copies I saw on the internet.

Dreaming the Reality is coming soon from Shamrock Media in Germany from a new HD Master,Beauty Investigator's HD version is cut and cuts down some important scenes as well unless another HD version which is uncut exists,Princess Madam from whats been said on here has rights issues, I assume Killer Angels could come in the future and as for boxsets I assume In the line of Duty 1-4 will come and besides it Angel 1-3 as well maybe or just Angel and Angel 2 but who knows what label will put them out I assume only the most well known films will get releases 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member wmcguire18 Posted May 19, 2022 Member Share Posted May 19, 2022 I really hope Police Story 3 is getting a separate blu release because I'm not double dipping on the first two and I've got the HKR for 3, which I'd like to upgrade but don't have to. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That'd be pretty sweet! We know Spectrum are working on Fire Dragon, that'd be my pick for your boxset.

Line or two missing and some tiny errors in Shawscope subs otherwise stellar work. 12 monkeys and Henry are at least movies with issues, maybe there is more. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member paimeifist Posted June 20, 2022 Member Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) Anyone else find some of the content in the Shawscope volume 1 booklet to be poorly written and just downright weird - particularly within the “film notes” sections on the movies? For the Chinatown Kid section, we get two paragraphs about how the scene of Fu Sheng spitting symbolizes Cheng and Shengs relationship, and also “illustrates Changs definition of good film making.” There were several other times I could hardly make sense of what was written, but hey, maybe I’m just a bit slow. I enjoy much of the booklet, the pictures and the more factual writings are cool… ….but I hope they get someone else to write the “film notes” next time, and/or stick to more fact based writings on more of them…. I noticed all of them were written by “Simon Abrams.” Edited June 20, 2022 by paimeifist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
