I posted this in the toys thread but it should live here too.

Also those extras on the Criterion Police Story are pretty great. Started going through it all this weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it. Will get to the sequel in the coming days.

I already pre-ordered this and I'm still waiting for my Takeshi Kitano 1/6 as well as my HEX Shaw Brothers figures to be released. Both are past their release dates.

Got around to Police Story 2 over the weekend. Another one I hadn't seen in a few years. Not as good as the original but still a very solid film. That finale in the fireworks factory is gold.

And man, the outtakes at the end, when Jackie cuts his head open and that other dude wipes the blood away - ouch. The things that these guys put their bodies through, it's insane.

As amazing as his martial arts skills are, having now seen more of his stuff, I have to say he's an action star in the most genuine sense of the term. I had only seen stuff like Rumble in the Bronx and Rush Hour before I knew Ian, but his 70s and 80s stuff is truly amazing.

Allison, you guys need to watch the ARMOUR OF GOD movies. It's Jackie as an Indiana Jones type character. They are a lot of fun.

I'll see if we have it or if Ian knows of it. :up:

We do, in fact I said on Sunday 'we should watch the Armor Of God movies, cause they're like Jackie Chan doing Raiders Of The Lost Ark' movies, hah.

I thought it sounded familiar.

It looks like Eureka used Tony Stella's artwork on their Meals On Wheels release without his permission, the signature is even visible in the booklet. He's understandably raising a fuss on twitter right now.

Watched Twin Dragons last night for the first time in ages. Man, that Fortune Star DVD looks like shit! I know it's out on Blu-ray in the US but it looks like it only has the English dub. Does anyone know of a decent Blu-ray release with the proper Chinese audio on it? I'm not finding anything out there. I'd like to upgrade from that DVD.

The best copy available is the Japanese extreme edition Blu Ray with custom subs. I don't believe it has Cantonese mono audio though.

Jackie has a cameo, alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger and Rutger Hauer, in The Mystery Of Dragon Seal: Journey To China, coming out later this year.
