Don't worry, Fidelity in motion are handling this one!

Edit: On a hunch i listened to the Bey Logan commentary on Project A but he made no mention of her which i thought he would have done considering her later JC film connection, then the Bey Logan commentary on WOM and he states there that during early casting the HK team wanted a local spanish lady to appear in the film and went to a casting agency where she was discovered wanting to get into films.

I didn't rewatch Project A before our Armour Of God commentary so this casting tidbit from online sources does make it into our audio commentary. Be gentle, folks

Right on.

It's nice to see distributors giving feedback on here.

Don't worry, at least you didn't say she was Kam Kong!

Well, if you have never seen it before then I would go with one or either of the Original theatrical Cantonese mono mixes. In all honesty, that would probably be the only logical choice then branch out later.

[WaverBoy]

My fave track is the original English dub with Lorelei at the end. Love the dub for this one and WHEELS ON MEALS too.

I only tend to watch extra features once, or twice at most, so it’s all about the main feature for me.

You have to remember that most of the audios are either Mono (1 channel audio) or Stereo (2 channel audio).

Considering that most new films have 7.1 sound (8 channel audio). This means you can fit 8 mono tracks or 4 stereo tracks in the space of just one 7.1 audio track.

The set also contains audio tracks where it's just the songs that change so that could mean it uses the same audio track for movie and just changes to whichever song you choose.

I think that's how it works.

Is it known how many first prints will be made before they move on to a simple, standard release?

I can't wait to watch this new remaster and the tons of content it has.

If I’m not mistaken I might’ve saw 5,000 somewhere, which I believe was also the amount for The Young Master.

5000 seems an awful lot IMO, I thought the limited runs are usually like 2000-3000 units?

It's one of Jackie's most well-known films and screaming for a high-quality release. Obviously they are hoping to move more units in the premium segment before rolling out the standard edition.

Young Master went through that 5000 pretty quick, and Armor of God probably has much more stature. Then you got like 2000 on EGS, 3 on Robotrix, and 4 on Riki-Oh going speedily. I give this release like 3 months.

Why is "Armor" spelled with a u? Is it due to the British English brought to Hong Kong?

Because that is the correct spelling of 'Armour'

[Rizor]

When I was younger, I used to read this film's title as "Amour of God".

[Stewynewy]

My Armour of God order has been dispatched. Looks like they're starting to be sent out.

[Killer Meteor]

Mine too!

Just got the email myself!
