Member Drunken Monk Posted June 18, 2021 Author Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 If anyone has missed the news (and if rumors are true), Arrow has picked up the rights to over 50 Shaw Brothers movies. Eureka, 88 Films and now Arrow are going to ensure I go broke. 8 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member LiuYiLong Posted June 18, 2021 Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Well they already teased out last year that they were working on releasing the 36th chamber of Shaolin, but no idea yet if the announcement will be for one single release, their slate of Shaw's films to come or a boxset of films. Exciting times!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member saltysam Posted June 18, 2021 Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Think if they have over 50 Shaw titles it will depend on how the first titles sell. Could bung them on their streaming channel. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Drunken Monk Posted June 18, 2021 Author Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Do you think July 9th is an announcement date or do you think it's a release date? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member saltysam Posted June 18, 2021 Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Announcement date i think,Arrow usually announce titles a couple of months in advance. I reckon this will be a late August or September release. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member ShawAngela Posted June 18, 2021 Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Are these Arrow releases region free ? I hope that they won't release the same titles as the other companies and that they'll be amazing in their choices as Spectrum has done for their future releases. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member saltysam Posted June 18, 2021 Member Share Posted June 18, 2021 Arrow will always be Region B for their UK only releases and Region A for their USA only releases. When they have rights for both territorires they are Region A/B. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member wmcguire18 Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 On the Hong Kong Cinema Appreciation Facebook group someone mentioned that there was some kind of internal Arrow memo that indicated the first release would be a box set, but please take it with a grain of salt. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member FightingFool Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 Arrow usually unless remember wrong announces titles on last friday of month. But maybe they do exceptation with Shaws?Personally wish they go for less known swordplay flicks but cannot complain if do obvious better sellers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member saltysam Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 Have a feeling it may be a 36th Chamber box set, i've had the very good HK set for years if it is. Heroes Of The East, Blood Brothers and my favourite Shaws The Killer i'd like to see. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A boxset with all David Chiang/Ti Lung's movies would be good, or with all the Venoms movies, of with all Fu Sheng/Chi Kuan Chun's movies, or with all Wang Yu/Lo Lieh's movies...It would be GREAT ! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member saltysam Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 I want Anonymous Heroes, it's fantastic, the IVL i have was a non-anamorphic early release and the subs go off the screen when you zoom the picture. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Irongod2112 Posted June 19, 2021 Member Share Posted June 19, 2021 I was originally going to be involved with Arrow and the upcoming Shaws but sadly had to decline because of other projects. That being said you are all gonna be very happy when you see the announcement! 10 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Iron Head Rat Posted June 21, 2021 Member Share Posted June 21, 2021 Hoping for Dirty Ho/3 Evil Masters or 5 Superfighters or perhaps one late 60's one 70's & one early 80's boxset 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member FightingFool Posted June 21, 2021 Member Share Posted June 21, 2021 WIsh they are able to reach some people who starred or directed those movies and create some nice extras. Some 88 Shaws have good special features, some not. It`s probably not easy task but arrow is company with resources and connections... Would like to red lotus trilogy boxset. OK with 36 chambers movies tho not keen on sequels so think hoping more single releases than boxset. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Lotus for historical value would indeed be a great release 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opposite here lately, but besides forthcoming Shaws spaghetti western boxset vengeance trails change that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Kwok Choi Posted June 23, 2021 Member Share Posted June 23, 2021 Once upon a time IVL used to create polls on this forum asking fans to choose one film from a list of Shaw titles that fans would like to have on Blu-ray. They honoured the result and the winning title was released albeit vanilla if I recall correctly. Any idea why this was stopped? Is IVL still in business? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
