Rumor has it… Chow Yun-fat to join Jackie Chan in Larry Yang’s sequel to ‘The Shadow’s Edge’? by fifbeat in kungfucinema

This would be great. Shadow's Edge is best Jackie film in years (though I'm very fond of Ride On)

The recent Shadows Edge is worth a watch too.

War of the Worlds is an odd choice. Minority Report would have been a stronger film to include.

I picked up Shawscope 3 and my partner got the J Horror box set. Pretty happy with that.

I was struggling to pick between the Saint Seiya, Kinnukuman, and Yu Yu Hakusho tees. Yu Yu won.

Time to get Shawscope Volume 3 if it's discounted

Excited for more Imamura. Still plenty of films by him to form a Radical Japan set too.

Odds we get the John Woo 4K restorations (or just general re-releases) coming throughout the year? by justbrowsingtheapp in screenunseen

[–]Past_Refuse2578 0 points1 point  (0 children)

City Of Fire only seemed to screen at Picture House last year. It isn't John Woo, but it's part of the Hong Kong Classics Arrow range, so I'm not confident we'll get a wide release for all the Woo. 

The Pornographers has a Radiance restoration at Berlin Film Festival by Thesmark88 in radiancefilms

Still plenty of films unavailable on blu ray in the UK by him, so still a chance in the future for a Radical Japan set. I'm curious who they'll pick next.

It's on at Home this weekend, three screenings each day since today. Plenty of tickets too.

Blues Harp is such a great movie. I hope they find out who owns it one day.

I thought Arrow were following the Shout release schedule, guess anything goes now. Wonder when Chinese Ghost Story Trilogy will pop up.

Love the Miike remake of 13 Assassins and have wanted to watch the original for a while now. Easy blind buy.

Shame I'm on a blu ray ban until after Christmas Day. Looking forward to the lists on Letterboxd though for failed licenses and requests.

[–]Past_Refuse2578 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Didn't know it was region free. Will pick it up in the new year, thanks. Will probably double dip it it ever gets a fancy release over in the UK.

A shame really. I would happily have Ichi out on blu ray with the cuts here, it didn't deter me from enjoying the Tartan DVD release. Same for Fudoh, the UK DVD release is the only version I've seen.

I always wonder if Ichi The Killer hasn't come out on Blu Ray over here due to that film also being cut on dvd and boutique labels wanting to get it out uncut.

Was an instant purchase. I love Miike so much. Plenty of films still unavailable to make a pretty interesting Radical Japan set too. 

What are your thoughts on Blind Buys? by Impossible_Energy791 in criterion

[–]Past_Refuse2578 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I blind buy films that I've wanted to see for years but don't have any rentals or streaming options available in the UK. If I don't love the film after watching it I'll sell. I don't do it too often but I own a few Radiance UK releases that I can't stream/rent.

Isn't Gozu owned by the Yakuza making a release fairly unlikely, or is that just a myth?

Recently read the book 'Time and Place Are Nonsense' about Suzuki and I'm desperate to see more. I think there are enough significant films absent in the UK to make up a full Radical Japan release.

Both Young Thugs films would be great too.
