Does Armour of God 2 exist with Jackie Chan dubbing his character? IIRC, last time I tried to watch it it had a different voice.

Some people know, but, obviously they aren't allowed to say, I would imagine. So, no idea how long before it sees a blu-ray release. Too bad they can't release them all at once then we could just get what we want when we can afford it. But, figuring they have some kind of business model they have to follow regarding releases to stay "in the black".

I know, I know. I'll probably end up watching what I have.

The US Dimension Films release of Operation Condor featured Jackie Chan’s voice but the latest Blu-ray edition from 88 Films is the full original release version, so it uses the original English dub produced in Hong Kong.

Awesome, after this release and Eureka's Star's set I believe I will have all of Jackie's films I love on BR!

Not be "actually...", but the Operation Condor export dub was actually produced in the UK.

Same dubbers as Magnificent Warriors

Drunksnake · 01-14-2021, 12:18 PM

Would like a Brandon Bentley or Kung Fu Bob commentary again, or both! Maybe another great collaboration?

Reading about all of these songs for the movies makes me wish there was cd's for theme songs for different HK movies. Back in the day I tried putting together my own disc and looked on napster and other mp3 sites. I found quite a bit, but not being a cantonese or mandarin speaker made it pretty hard. I still listen to that burnt cd to this day LOL. Are there compilation discs like this out there? I am in Mississippi and about as far away from a Chinatown as you can be.

Did something similar only with cassette tapes. The ones I couldn't find online I crudely recorded with the tape-players built in microphone of the TV.. Same goes for a bunch of great Sega Genesis tunes

Seems like the track is missing from every version available for purchase online. From Apple music and Spotifys releases as well

Making a Spotify playlist is probably your best shot. There are actually quite a few already on Spotify. This one is quite comprehensive

I don't know if it's something that could be done, but i would like a little featurette about Alam Tam. Who he is, his career, some clips of his songs...

This, and maybe a music video if there is one. From one of the songs featured in the film.

Ken81 · 01-16-2021, 07:52 AM

I do wish there was a way to get an interview with Lola Forner regarding her participation in this movie and Wheels on meals. I have been waiting for that since the HKL days, but still no luck. Maybe she is hard to track down

I'm used to the lorelei track with the silence break at the point where Jackie falls. Think that was in the channel 4 broadcast I taped in the 90s.

Same, my big bro taped it off tv in the early hours when they broadcast it during their Jackie season and the Lorelei song sounds so perfect over the end credits

I'd love an interview with Lola. Never heard or read anything from her about her Hong Kong pictures.
