Hey guys,

So far i have seen Kungfu Hustle and Journey to the West (The Monkey King) are the only one that is blu ray. Do you know any other movies of Chow that are in blu ray??? I am looking forward to see Shaolin Soccer, From Beijing With Love, God of Cookery on blu!

If you have a region free player, Shaolin Soccer is coming to the UK in September.

I'm with you for these two! Especially since their dvd versions are all crappy.

CJ7 is available, but I was disappointed in that one.

I have the Chinese Odyssey collection and CJ7. I've been wanting to get Kung Fu Hustle, but I've been trying to avoid the US version for the sake of wanting the uncut one from either Japan or Korea. I don't know...I may just give in and get the US one though.

I do want more of his stuff on Bluray though. I've got tons of his stuff on DVD so it'd be nice to get an upgrade.

I wish they start doing a Stephen Chow Vol I, etc. There's alot older films that I would definitely buy on Blu.

Can anyone tell me how good the Korean Shaolin Soccer Blu-ray looks?

https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/Shaol...lu-ray/194284/

Is it the same upscale from the British Blu-ray or is it any better?

I went and head and ordered it shortly after making this post.

It arrived yesterday and I watched it right away. The transfer is solid for the most part, but it looks like a DVD era master and it has the Miramax logo at the start (so I am assuming it's the same as the British version).

The special features have awful audio and only Korean subtitles.

If you just want the movie, this is a decent option and the packaging is very nice.

I have the original Korean 2- disc bluray and the movie disc is identical to the UK Optimum release. The new Korean release must have gotten rid of the English dubbed version and squeezed everything onto one bd.
