In the Line of Duty IV (Eureka Classics) - Page 4 - Blu-ray Forum

KamomeShokudo · 03-20-2023, 12:16 AM

I loved III, but man... IV is one of the best action films I've ever seen, along with Royal Warriors, what a wonderful series of releases!

Mr_Orange · 03-20-2023, 12:40 AM

My copies, literally just arrived. I think that might be the fastest delivery to Australia that I have ever had from Eureka. I can't wait to get stuck into them.

Goes off to rip the discs......

Looking at Eureka's screencaps on this website and Cynthia really is a looker that can't be denied, my HKL DVD copy does her disservice

Might have to get it at some point. Still prefer Yeoh yet them doing a duo would have been amazing

I know I've been hypnotised before just staring at her face during the Tiger Cage series

I hope you've not got an OLED screen, because that's going to cause burn-in.

backslashio · 03-21-2023, 02:09 PM

The burn-in of Cynthia's face is worth the cost of OLED imo

She was so beautiful in the 80s and 90s. But this is how she looks today (on the left):

Reminds me of Madonna wanting to look like her own granddaughter.

Look at the enlarged eyes. Like a real life anime character. Yuck!

backslashio · 03-21-2023, 02:31 PM

Sadly she doesn't look natural at all now, almost unrecognisable

Surreal!

Whoa, take it easy, man.

This is all subjective of course, but if you had to ask me right now what the top three Hong Kong action films are, I'd say Police Story 3 firmly as number one, followed by Eastern Condors and In the Line of Duty IV in the second and third spots (not sure which I prefer out of those two yet). All three are very high in my absolute favorite first-time viewings in 2022.

It's sad that women feel so pressured to look young. Natural is so much more appealing.

My copy has been dispatched from Amazon.co.uk. Strange this is shipped before ITLOD 3. Also fuming that the price ended up as £18.55, so much for Amazon always matching the lowest price. Is this them trying to claw back the mispricing?

Any reason why you aren't ordering direct from Eureka?

mediaguy · 03-22-2023, 01:38 AM

still hoping for mine to show ....

Was thinking the same. They even offer free shipping!

Owenjohnston · 03-22-2023, 11:17 AM

Mine is also £18.55 from Amazon for III and IV. I pre-ordered when I had £5 off £15 voucher codes for 2 accounts, so £13.55 each, but pre-ordered when it went live. Are they not supposed to charge whatever the lowest price was prior to release?!

Watched the Blu-ray last night and from what I can tell, it’s certainly the best the film has ever looked on home media by a landslide. Minor issues aside (maybe some images are a bit too soft etc.,), it’s got very good picture quality and even better audio. Even if it doesn’t have all the bonus features they said it would, Eureka still did very well with this release.

Well I did that and not impressed.

Took my Eureka direct orders 6 days to arrive (just turned up) from their claimed shipped date despite the postage label saying Royal Mail 48 hours. They obviously didn't hand off until Monday. No issues locally with my mail as HMV and other orders still on time.

Also why was mine shipped so late as others here had copies shipped two weeks ago despite me ordering from them over a month ago. Are they a one man and his dog operation with only one person doing the post.

Looking at prices and it seems Silver Bullet is their only forthcoming title where the Eureka direct price is less than Amazon. Everything else Amazon are cheaper so sticking with them as get Monday release day or worst case the Tuesday.

Makes me wonder. Does Eureka ship based off who ordered first? Cuz I'm in the USA and I ordered these films on December 23rd of last year. Dispatched out on March 6th. And I got them over here on the 13th.

I'm in the U.S. as well and placed the order on December 13th. Mine was also shipped on the 6th and took about a week to arrive. Someone mentioned that perhaps they shipped international first.
