Member punt44 Posted July 30, 2009 Member Share Posted July 30, 2009 Hi Yall, Does anyone have screen caps from this release? It says it's widescreen with english and chinese versions. However, I noticed the comments were the print was dark and grainy. Can anyone confirm? Thanks. http://www.hkflix.com/xq/asp/filmID.551208/qx/details.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Shaolin_Fox Posted July 30, 2009 Member Share Posted July 30, 2009 Yeah, I made the error of getting their 1st version of this, its just an exact copy of the Xenon DVD, with menus and everything I won't buy this until I see some convincing screen caps and reviews, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Grady-San Posted July 30, 2009 Member Share Posted July 30, 2009 There releases have ALWAYS been crap... Hopefully one day a decent legit release will float to the surface. Until that happens, look around... I have seen a decent Widescreen, English Dub (Cantonese w/ Eng Custom Subs) using a French print floating around on the traders market.

Member Shaolin_Fox Posted July 30, 2009 Member Share Posted July 30, 2009 ^ Should look at that section more often. I hope some of those guys sell their stuff since I've never really been into trading (Nor have stuff that people would be interested in). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, there's a triple whammy of this crap at this one mall I go to. They have the largest FYE on the east coast, so of course half of their MA section is made up of bootlegs from PanMedia, but on top of that, there are two "foreign flix" kiosks on both sides of the mall... one just around the corner from FYE! Ugh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member greenfan Posted July 30, 2009 Member Share Posted July 30, 2009 Yeap! ...is that bad? If you do a search on this forum for the words 'Panmedia' and 'Douchebag' you should see a significant amount of results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member punt44 Posted July 30, 2009 Author Member Share Posted July 30, 2009 Well, ok. The purpose for this thread was to find some screen caps of this release (or whatever the hell this release is bootlegged from). This was not to start a fight about Panmedia and how horrible and terrible they are yadda yadda yadda blah blah. We've been over this countless times.Yes, this company is terrible and all, but where am I going to find a release of this film in widescreen, in English and Chinese, for under $10 and in my own region code? Tell me where and I'll pick it up. If not, STFU about Dragon Dynasty this, Media Blasters that. Dragon Dynasty probably won't even be around in two years, and guess who will be bootlegging them for future generations to consume??? Oh and FYI, I bough Dragon Dynasty's Fist of Legend AND Tai Chi Master...these were truely terrible releases and technically flawed discs. I bought the Panmedia version of Tai Chi Master and it played PERFECTLY. With absolutely no slow down problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is... finding the widescreen english version can easily be done with the right attitude. Something sir you clearly don't have. And I bet by pissing on people w/ the attitude.has surely ruided any chance of help from people who have it. Just my 2 cents is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member David Rees Posted August 1, 2009 Member Share Posted August 1, 2009 People buy from Panmedia and then moan that theres no official release. Its because these pirates have flooded the market and the niche market is now so small that legit companies cannot sell enough copies to make a profit so dont release them. Ask around the fan forums (this being a good example) and try and do a trade, dont give these thieves your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The main reason Panmedia can have some what decent prints is because they are using them without paying for them and the companies that do....BCI goes under due to lack of sales.

Well, all people seemed to care about were having those old English dubs, so they use that to justify buying from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Killer Meteor Posted August 1, 2009 Member Share Posted August 1, 2009 What's up with all the Panmedia questions lately? I agree, its suspicious. I mean, does Panmedia sound REMOTELY like a legit kung fu company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member HAZ Posted August 2, 2009 Member Share Posted August 2, 2009 Hi, The widescreen Shaolin vs Wutang was created by a fan for a very popular torrent site. Whoever runs Panmedia downloaded that & is now selling that same DVD for 10 dollars. If you want to pay him money after hearing that, its your business. With almost no effort, you too can have this DVD. Check google or your favorite torrent spot. It's been out for a long time. It's a pretty easy find. peace h Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member VenomsFan Posted August 2, 2009 Member Share Posted August 2, 2009 panmedia has been around since the Ground Zero days. they provided versions that otherwise would not be available. now that dd and tokyo shock are releasing you think it would stop. as long as sites like hkflix host such libraries, they will always be around. in my opinion that's where it needs to stop.

Sad thing is, I keep getting e-mails from HKFlix saying "PANMEDIA SALE THIS WEEK!" At least the Media Blasters releases have halted HKFlix from selling PanMedia's discs of their films. When looking up Five Element Ninjas, they showed the PanMedia release as being unable to ship due to Media Blasters' copyright. I don't think you see Dragon Dynasty doing that with any of their DVDs. Ironic since they used to block imports of films they had the rights to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they used to block but don't anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member jalvarez82 Posted August 6, 2009 Member Share Posted August 6, 2009 An official widescreen remastered version of this classic is long overdue. Hopefully one day we'll see one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Grady-San Posted August 6, 2009 Member Share Posted August 6, 2009 Last I heard/read... Dragon Dynasty owns the US rights to this, so who knows maybe one day they will release it (if they are around long enough). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
