Member The Silver Fox Posted January 30, 2009 Member Share Posted January 30, 2009 I know they have a studio building or something , but does anybody know if the 'town' on Clearwater Bay still exists? My wife is from the Philippines and we are going to visit soon and I want to stop in Hong Kong for a couple of days so I wanted to find out. I also want to load up on(legit) DVD's while I'm there so any suggestions on where to buy would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Asmo Posted February 1, 2009 Moderator Share Posted February 1, 2009 what was their last film?Drunken Monkey? Yes. Corey Yuen Kwai is supposed to direct a remake of "Vengeance" for Celestial, that might be as close as we come to a 'new' SB movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Mike Leeder Posted February 8, 2009 Member Share Posted February 8, 2009 TVB had been using the back lot for a lot of their TV series, and when TVB moved further into the New Territories into their new studio at Tseung Kwan-o, the backlot got closed down. I'm not sure how much of it left standing, next time I'm at Celestial or Shaws i ll have a look Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
