Upcoming English-friendly GERMAN DVDs & Blu-Rays

[wmcguire18]

I was told there was an English friendly remaster of THE IRON MONKEY with Chen Kwan Tai but couldn't find it on German Amazon, anyone know what the title is in German or kind enough to provide a link?

German title is" die schule des shaolin"

It`s probably same version as vengeance video but it has added scenes inserted with original language+eng subs as not so great vhs quality.

No, it looks way better than the VV version.

Thx for correcting. Someone said years ago they are equal in quality but as never owned VV disc said probably in original post.

Own both and while not perfect, the German DVD is a vast improvement, save for the re-inserted bits, they still look rough, but on the whole a clear upgrade.

Does the Eureka Blu-ray of Iron Monkey contain these bits, or is it cut?

Can the German Blu of Fantasy Mission Force be had anywhere besides Amazon Germany? I’m looking for a good ship-to-U.S. option.

Eureka released the Donnie Yen Iron Monkey, the German release mentioned is the 1977 film of the same title (normally 'The Iron Monkey') with Chen Kuan Tai.

When it comes to the 1993 film Eureka's BD is uncut.

It's not the same Iron Monkey. The Eureka one is the one with Donnie Yen, not Chen Kuan Tai.

Sorry, I hadn't seen that someone had already pointed the mistake.

Anyone have comparison screenshots of the VV vs German DVD?  The VV version looks perfectly acceptable to me.

Finally received my mediabook of Warrior and the Ninja and if you're a fan of Jaka Sembung then pick this one up. I'm glad all three films in the trilogy are now available in HD. Rita Zahara kicks major ass in this and overshadows Barry Prima IMO.

Yeah, I'd also like to know where can you get the other two in HD?

Also, not sure they stopped at three...

They were available on netflix in other countries with a VPN. someone managed to rip them and now they are widely available as 1080p webrips. Here are some screenshots from Warrior and the Blind Swordsman. They actually look better on my OLED than these screenshots.

Which of these German releases of Fantasy Mission Force is the best? Anyone seen one or both of them?

[Asmo]

Do you know if the second one is the cover for a blu-ray or DVD?

Oh I love this film. I'd be all over a Bluray of this. Great cast as well.

Frank Djeng confirmed on Facebook that it will have English subtitles, as he is redoing them himself!

I oversaw the new English subtitles and Frank kindly verified the translations (made changes, etc).

With English subs? Sweet! That's a must have, huge upgrade.

Bonusfilm "Infernal street" looks more interesting but at least main features lady in cast who was in "ambitious kung fu girl" so that is +.
