The Valiant Ones is finally getting a blu-ray release.

HK All region English subs - Hong Kong Film Archive  https://www.filmarchive.gov.hk/en_US/web/hkfa/rp-hkfa-restored-treasures-4.html  I don't know if they ship or if you have to visit their store. This page mentions other sales outlets:  https://www.info.gov.hk/gia/general/202304/20/P2023041900823.htm  Available now

And a German Region B no Eng subs - available in August 2023 on Tg Vision / Cargo label

Thanks for the link, will be nice to finally upgrade the White Goatee DVD.

You should hurry to preorder the HKFA one, because it seems that it sells very quick and that there aren't many copies that will be released.

I will contact them soon and see what's up. I didn't order it until much later so it may still be in transit.

Edit: Got the notification it shipped today.

It arrived. Had no idea it was going to come with a 96 page book. Will check out the extras tonight.

I see both Four Moods and The Wheel of Life just came out on BLU with English subs from the Taiwan Film Institute. To be honest, I wish 'Anger' was alone on the disc or appended to one of the other films, I will probably never watch the other segments again. The Wheel of Life I'm ok with.

I think that just leaves Sons of Good Earth, All the King's Men and Painted Skin BLUs that need English subs. I see they are all coming out on Spectrum, so hopefully that is coming in the future.

No word on The Juvenizer, I'd still like to see that someday.

I don't care about The Story of Sue San, doesn't feel like a King Hu film. IVL DVD is fine.

Unfortunately those 2 other English friendly Blu rays are not HKFA titles & the SKUs are not showing up yet at the major Asian retailers. I might have to ask my friend in Kaohsiung to pick them up for me.

Where did you see that ? Do you have a link ?

Aren't these movies in the King Hu's second boxset from Spectrum ?

Yes those films are in the Spectrum set but not English friendly. But these two English subbed editions have been out for a couple weeks already.

Thank for the links, but no sites are selling them yet ? I tried to find them for sale somewhere just in order to see what the cases look at and the prices, but except these links, I can't see them elsewhere, and I don't think that bluray.com sell anything, right ?

Not sure if this is the only place, but they can be purchased through the Taiwan Film and Audiovisual Institute shop:

Four Moods - https://www.tfai.org.tw/zh/product/detail/2c95808288528e16018a641710ef033c
The Wheel of Life - https://www.tfai.org.tw/zh/product/detail/2c95808288528e16018a641e4db90340

I tried from there but I don't see any international shipping option & when you try the English site it says the product is not available.
