I had already owned about half the movies in this set already on dvd/blu-ray already, but I pre-ordered it anyway. Very glad I did. Great quality and tons of great extras again.
Alas this one is no longer mine, I gave it to a friend who had to sell his for financial reasons, but for the brief period on which it was mine, I had a very loving relationship with it 🤣 Such great films in here
Otaku is a generous dude! I bet he is extremely busy doing the restaurant business! I like his videos and his love for these movies! He is the Shaw Brothers guy!
From what I understand the hours he works at the restaurant are absolutely insane, and restaurant work is super stressful. Thankfully he has countless Shaw and chanbara movies to keep him calm! He's a great dude, and I love his channel, too.
I'm so lucky I ended up with this so long before the release date, I feel like I need to watch at least one of the films in here to justify getting it so early.
Something I just found out on Amazon last night was that a 7-movie Jackie Chan collection is coming out in January from Shout Selects. Did you know this? At some point it would be good to bring this up when you do another upcoming releases video.
I actually just got contact info for the PR person at Shout handling that release and am going to contact them before I record anything in case they have screenshots or anything like that I can include in the video
I'm so jealous! I heard that some people got these really early but you did a really good job of keeping it quiet. I'm still on the fence whether to buy this straight away or wait and pick it up later for two reasons; 1. Vol. 1 went down to £80 here in the UK not long after release and 2. Arrow's recent issues with QC and having to issue replacement discs on quite a few of their new releases.
Yeah I imagine the price will come down quite a bit if you wait. This is definitely a set that if someone had not sent it to me I would wait for the price to come down. Just at first glance this one doesn't have some of the issues people had with the first set, such as the artwork seeming unfinished
I've been meaning to a video on Boxer From Shantung for absolutely months and just haven't gotten around to it yet, in part because i haven't watched the interview with John Woo yet, which I really want to watch before I do the review.
🤣 wine dine and 69 indeed! I feel bad I've had this for over a month at this point and still haven't watched any of it. I'm pretty sure that makes me a bad person.
@@hkcinemasociety I would love to see a review of Boxer's Omen, I love how that movie starts out with one plot then completely abandons it to go full on bat shit crazy! That and Seeding of a Ghost are nutz!
@@PurityThruFire Boxer's Omen is so insane it's basically it's own genre. It's one of the most batshit insane movies I've ever seen, but also has this really incredible psychedelic spiritual angle to it that seems like it accidentally migrated over from a Jodorowsky movie.
Boxer's Omen came out before the Category III classificaiton existed, but as best I understand it, it is not one of the films that was retroactively given a Cat 3 rating.
@@rubenvilla1675 Oh most definitely. It's super grotesque body horror. If it came out in the US in 1983 it would probably have been rated X. It's just so disgusting, and on purpose, in a really insane way.
From what I gather, the label was very angry with the disributor who sent this out super early, so I'm not surprised they haven't send it out themselves yet.
I honestly have no idea how Flip was able to get this so early, he didn't tell me, but I'm happy it happened. I'm gonna have to start using that expression more often 😂😂😂
@@hkcinemasociety Postal Strike in UK so mines in transit somewhere Lol, great video Will, just waiting for Iceman Cometh pre order come available I got £13 off collecting points from 88 Films.
@@Timelord007 wow great price on iceman! I still haven't ordered either version of that film. Too bad about the postal strike. Our postal service just keeps getting more and more expensive because the government is defunding it in the hopes of privatizing it
@@GaryReyes777 I was hoping to finish Vol 1 before digging in to 2, but I've been getting so many movies recently I'm honestly a little overwhelmed by it all!
@@hkcinemasociety yeah i feel for you bro :) lol ... I just have to watch for my own viewing pleasure, you have the weight of the world waiting for your videos ... Thanks for your videos tho. It's appreciated.
@@GaryReyes777 Thanks for the kind words! 've been trying to get more videos out recently, but every time i seem to get my act together and watch a bunch of movies, something gets in the way of me shooting the videos.
The Kid with the Golden Arm artwork looks amazing!
I really dig that one. I gotta look that artist up.
Nice - looking forward to this collection. Some classic kung fu movies in there!
I'm gonna have to dig in soon to justify getting it so early
This set makes my end of November/December… I will watch the lot - probably take me until new year
I'm thinking of binging Shaw movies in December.
I'm so hyped for this boxset, so many classics in this. Can't wait for the end of November
It's basically a greatest hits package. I can't wait to dig in

Ten Tigers from Kwangtung is absolutely fantastic! You're in for a real treat there!
So excited to check that one out
I haven't seen all of it but I would love too
Love it. Mine arrives Nov 21st
I need to watch at least one of these discs before everyone else starts getting their sets to justify getting mine so early!
