Re: Asian Movies in HD!
I wasnt sure if FK counted as a true "starring" role or not or more a supporting role, with Jet he's certainly one of the top stars in it

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
I was thinking of picking up the HK BD of 'Curse of the Golden Flower'.
Its much cheaper at DDD House than Yes Asia but DDD seem to show the cover of the US release so was wondering which version they sell.

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
I have the Sony R1 BD of Golden Flower... any reason why you're after the HK release?

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
No reason really, it just seemed reasonably cheap (for a HK release) with better art

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
highly unlikely.it's not Fotune Star releasing these. i imagine they'll be ports of the french releases with english subs added and an english dub replaceing the french one.grim_tales wrote:36th Chamber Trilogy in February:

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
Saw this on Blu Ray.com, but Drunken Master is coming (doesnt say when) from Twilight Time (!)
https://www.facebook.com/twilighttimemo ... 7077334959
Seems an odd title for a company like that to release, I hope at least its Full HD with a good translation.

I hate Twilight Time - an outfit based on greed who use Limited Edition status as an excuse to fleece consumers with £30 price tags.

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
There should be no reason to make it such an LE, but when it does come to TT, perhaps that means Sony or another company could release it in the UK?

Re: Asian Movies in HD!
I'm in the States and they annoy me. Look at the price of their BD of Breaking Away (unless this is an OOP price.) They have had several I've been interested in, but really just wanting them to be massed released.Markgway wrote:I hate Twilight Time - an outfit based on greed who use Limited Edition status as an excuse to fleece consumers with £30 price tags.
