Marshes of Yang

Ninja Checkmate

My Life´s On the Line

Shaolin vs Lama

2 On The Road

City of Darkness (this it seems will also be out)

Gerd Ma Lui

Gerd Ma Lui 3

5 Fighters from Shaolin

Gold Hunters

[Guest vengeanceofhumanlanterns]

The Hot The Cool And The Vicious

Killers Game / the green jade statuette

Point The Finger Of Death

Secret Of The Shaolin Poles

Challenge Of Death

Ferocious Monk Of Shaolin

Eagles Claw

Unique Lama

The Green Dragon Inn

Eagles Claw vs Butterfly Palm

There are more of course and I'd like these with the original english dubbs option as well. That would be cool.

[Guest Ninja Sinai]

My list of 10 movies that I think deserve a Celestial style glass remaster in widescreen would have to be..

#1. Rebellious Reign – Shapes galore with a ballistic end fight!

#2. Snake In The Monkeys Shadow – It will be a fine fine day when a remastered version of this finally sees the light of day.

#3. Bloody Treasury Fight – Tan Tao Liang classic!! There has to be a wide version of this somewhere!

#4. Strife For Mastery – Man what I would give for a wide remaster of this! From what ive heard through many collectors is that a widescreen version of this classic doesn’t exist! I just hope that’s not the case but after trying to hunt one down for a very long time.. im starting to think it may be true.

#5. Heroes of Shaolin (AKA Hero of the Wild) – Wicked wicked flik!! Only downside I thought was the music. Def needs a remaster!

#6. Choi Lee Fat Kung Fu – Man how I would love to see a glorious remaster of this classic! Big respect to Toby for putting out a nice widescreen print. Now all we need is remastered version where we can see the actual true colours.

#7. The Victim – One of the best end fights ever!!

#8. Mystery Of Chess Boxing – Ive already seen a glass widescreen original language version of this on the big screen. So I know the print exists. Now all we need is Toby to put it out on dvd.

#9. The Challenger – Glad to know this one is finally on the horizon!

#10. The Loot – Same as above!

[Guest Northern B]

..Shaolin Plot! Superb movie

btw some great titles already mentioned

[Guest Ninja Sinai]

Shaolin Plot has loooooong been promised by HKL.

As far back as 98/99 I think.

However still no sign of it.. im hoping this year is the year I finally get to watch this.. as ive been holding off buying it waiting for the HKL release.

I saw a clip of this yeeears ago in the now legendary Flashlegs Shop in Clapham when Flashlegs Pete played me the final clip where Casanova Wong turns up and tears up the screen!!

[Linn1]

Here's what I know. If I said yes, that means they are being worked on right now or they're done. Maybe mean I know the print is being thought of. No, there's little chance in the next year or so. Please note, this STILL doesn't mean they'll be out this year.

Gold Hunters-Yes

Secret Of The Shaolin Poles-Yes

Ferocious Monk Of Shaolin-Yes

City of Darkness-yes

Shaolin Plot-Yes

Five Element Ninja (Chinese Super Ninjas)-yes

8 Masters-Yes

The Rebellious Reign-Owned by FS, comes out this year or next

Gerd Ma Lui-coming, but it will be full screen

Gerd Ma Lui 3-ditto

Shaolin Vs. Lama-Toby is supposedly doing this. He's got the print at least.

Shaolin & Wutang-Maybe

The Green Dragon Inn-Maybe

2 On The Road-Maybe

Heroes of Shaolin (AKA Hero of the Wild)-Maybe

Fatal Flying Guillotines (uncut)-Maybe

Blazing Temple, The-Maybe

5 Fighters from Shaolin-Maybe

[Guest Ninja Sinai]

Tarantino????

[Linn1]

correct. The copy he has is the only one I know of that's uncut. It has extra footage, including longer fights, and at least one more full fight scene. He showed it at one of his film fest a year or so ago. A friend who saw it was blown away by the fact that it was uncut.

[Guest Chinatown Kid]

So the chances of Chinatown Kid being released remastered and uncut looks good huh Linn?, that info gives me a reason to cheer!!! Know anything about Crash releasing Dynamo remastered as well?

[Guest Shaolin Dog Paw]

if Tarantino was a true fan, why would he hoard the uncut version and not give it to the fans?

It just seems confusing, he doesnt really need the money but would still make a decent profit from releasing the uncut version. Maybe he likes having a gem in his collection that no one else has?

[Linn1]

I just don't think he's even thought about it really.

[Guest MikoHazuki]

Thanks for the info Linn. I'm ecstatic to see SECRET OF THE SHAOLIN POLES in widescreen, finally! Any new release has to be better than the crappy blurry fullscreen version available.

[bobo]

lets hope that tarantino doesn,t hoard any english dub shaw gems. anyway 10 movies i would like to see remastered are --DEEP THRUST--BROKEN OATH-- REBELLIOUS REIGN--SHANHAI KILLERS--BEACH OF THE WAR GODS--DELIGHTFUL FOREST--DUEL OF THE IRON FIST--NEW ONE ARMED SWORDSMAN--LIFE COMBAT--SACRED KNIVES OF VENGEANCE--of course all uncut with the english dubbing. in fact i want all the english dub SHAWS remastered.

[Guest thundered mantis]

:eek

[Guest Yakuza954]

I remember reading that the crowd went wild after they saw Tarantino's uncut Snake in the Monkey's Shadow. And while I thought the movie was enjoyable, I didn't think it was that good. I assumed his version just had the extra monkey vs snake scene, but if it had longer fights AND an extra fight, than it makes more sense if the crowd went crazy. It's probably a better movie altogether.

My top 10 List (didn't include stuff slated to be released by Joy Sales):

1. Five Fighters from Shaolin (I see this listed as a "maybe". Here's hoping..)

2. Fists and Guts

3. Tiger over Wall

4. Fistful of Talons

5. Call me Dragon

6. Kung Fu Supermen

7. The Lama Avenger

8. Iron Dragon Strikes Back

9. Shaolin Temple Strikes Back

10. Dynamite Trio

[Guest HANZOSTEEL]

Id love to see a Shaolin & Wutang redone properly.

Me too that's a true classic.

Im suprised a lot of the movies made the list. Some i have never heard of but now have taken

the time to learn about.

[Guest JAZZYMONKEY]

MY CHOICES WOULD BE:

1.TWO TOOTHLESS TIGERS-SAMMO HUNG,WANG LUNG WEI AND SUNNY YUEN.

2.THE MASTER STRIKES-MENG YAUN MAN

3.DEMON STRIKE-WANG JANG LEE

4.THE BLOODY TATTOO/THE LOOT-DAVID CHANG

5.AVENGING WARRIORS OF SHAOLIN(I HOPE CELESTIAL COMES OUT WITH THAT BY THE END OF THE YEAR).

6.KUNG FU VS YOGA-ALAN HSU,CHIEN YUET SUN

7. THE BUDDHA ASSASINATOR-MENG HOI,WANG JANG LEE

8. MISSION:KISS AND KILL-LEE I MIN,LUNG FEI

9. KUNG FU COMMANDOES-JOHN LIU,ROBERT TAI,ALAN HSU

10.THUNDERING MANTIS-LIANG CHIA JEN,CHIEN YUET SUN

[Guest Ninja Sinai]

Aaaah..

Mission Kiss & Kill - How could I forget that one.

Linn told me quite a while back that a possible remastered widescreen release of this was on the horizon.. any update on this Linn??

By the way.. when will those darn Eastern Star releases finally see the light of day!! If I remember correctly the first titles have been ready to be pressed for quite a while now.
