My previously purchased version of A Better Tomorrow is now playing in 4K DV DA. Still the old tile artwork.

[Dr. Seymour Love]

Will the preorder price for these be the cheapest? I haven't bought any Shout titles before on itunes.

[Daitetsujin17]

Just out of curiosity, do the films have hardcoded English subtitles?

Swordsman trilogy is now up for digital pre-order.

Probably not. I haven’t noticed many pre-order price drops aside from Arrow titles.

I will let you know once I buy some.

Thank you!

I wonder if once all these Chow Yun-fat titles are released if they will end up doing any bundles.

OT, sure, but, wouldn't mind a Muta bluray bundle! My VHS tapes from high school & college could use the upgrade.

They released an 8 disc Bluray set for Great Muta's Final Bye Bye Tour spanning his career but I have not seen it yet. It is probably pretty pricey since it is an import.

No kidding, really?? Wow!

I'd definitely like to see it. If you can recall the name or if you happen to find it, I'd greatly appreciate a PM. Thanks for letting me know!

Picked up Hard Boiled and City on Fire for $10.99 each.

Watched Hard Boiled yesterday. Looked and sounded great. The subtitles were a little disappointing with the misspellings and grammatical errors. Reminds me of a bootleg lol.

Did your copy's audio go out of sync during Tequila's office confrontation with his senior officer? Mine did what looked like a jump cut and the audio didn't match up the rest of the movie. I was watching in Cantonese

Hmm...I did not notice that. But, I may need to give it another watch to see if that is the case.

As much as I love having as close to the original audio as is possible, in these cases, one thing I did notice, and it's a slight disappointment, is that none of the new Shout Hong Kong Cinema Classics have Dolby Atmos soundtrack options.

Assuming they will eventually be given as an option on the disc versions being released later (not confirmed), I would hope that these files would be updated with the option.
