Azumi 1 and 2 (the dvds look terrible) and The Rebel would make great blus.

I voted for the Rush Hours, but they're not Asian movies. I would've picked Super Sentai.

In order of preference:
1. Returner
2. Shichi-nin no Samurai (七人の侍)
3. Shaolin Soccer
4. Azumi (both movies actually but mostly the first)
5. Nihon Chinbotsu (日本沈没)

Also interested in: Gororo, Gojoe, Machine Girl, Saikano, Youkaidaisensou (妖怪大作戦), etc

Except for Shaolin Soccer, I'm very looking forward to lots of Japanese movies

A bit off topic but are both Rush Hour movies considered Asian movies? I thought they were Hollywood products

Except by all reports the Weinsteins have botched all releases of the film in the U.S. so far...first with the dubbed & cut atrocity, and more recently with the excessive contrast of the Dragon Dynasty release.

I'm not really holding up a lot of hope for good BD releases of HK's early '90s films in particular, given the source quality seen in the past, but I wouldn't mind being surprised.

But have you seen the work Celestial Pictures has done (at least I think it was that company) with their work on older HK cinema. Someone on here posted a video of it awhile back but I can't seem to find it. I think that you could possibly be surprised with what you see on some releases.
