Member lilmanjs Posted November 23, 2022 Member Share Posted November 23, 2022 Interesting that I've gotten a shipping email from Arrow for my copy. I guess they're just not gonna wait for the street date for the US release? Supposed to arrive Saturday, Monday or Tuesday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Red Lion Posted November 23, 2022 Member Share Posted November 23, 2022 For those of you who either cant wait for the box set to reach them or are struggling to get the funds for the box set and are eager to see the films included, they have all now been added to the arrow video streaming app. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I just looked on HKMDB just to see who else stars in this and Jesus, its like the Chinese version of Expendables. There's a whole trove of well known stars. Just got to see Hwang Jang Lee in another role. Probably wouldn't recognise him without his wicked haircut from Hell'z windstaff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably why then. I figured Arrow was Arrow, no matter which side of the pond you're on. Seeing as Arrow started in Blighty in 1991, you'd think we have priority with America trailing behind us. Nearly £40 quid! You're having a laugh. Thought blu's were quite cheap these days. No way am I paying £40 quid!.

Eureka has the UK rights and have already released the same disc in the UK, it's just the cover art that is different as far as I can see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes mate. Already saw the cover art. I somewhat dislike the later Chinese movies with Western actors. I'm more of a period style setting person. On the other hand I didn't know there was a weath of stars in this movie. Bolo Yeung and Hwang Jang Lee are two stars that I wouldn't have imagined. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Cannibal Holocaust also a coati, a turtle, a tarantula, a boa constrictor and a pig killed on screen in addition to the monkey. Bad joke I know. Now I'm against animal cruelty as much as the next person, but Cannibal Holocaust is an AMAZING film. And the director said later he regrets the animal cruelty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Rando1975 Posted November 27, 2022 Member Share Posted November 27, 2022 I'm definitely interested in Millionaire's Express as the Dragon Dynasty DVD release (as Shanghai Express) is very expensive depending on where you're looking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Rubber John Posted November 28, 2022 Member Share Posted November 28, 2022 A bit late to the party, but I just ordered ShawScope Vol. 1 as it was on Sale for £72. I guess I will have to wait a bit longer for Vol. 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
