Is there a good blu Ray of come drink with me? I can’t make heads or tails of the situation on that one and I’d like a nicer copy than a garbage tier dvd or the dubbed streaming version on android

FancyMike posted:Is the dvd really garbage tier? I haven't watched that one but have been watching a few Shaw Bros dvds lately and the Celestial Pictures restorations are usually pretty good. Woof, thanks but I guess that means not really then

FancyMike posted:Yeah the blu-ray situation when it comes to Shaw Bros stuff is really sad I just introduced a friend to King Hu through the criterion channel, but he’s very anti dub so I was hopeful for a blu of come drink with me. I saw it in a local theatre last year and it looked great, so I was hoping that meant there might be a good transfer.

FancyMike posted:As far as I know there haven't been any restorations of the Shaw catalog since the early 00s, so even what stuff there is on blu-ray I would expect to come from the same source as any dvds. There's a number of Chang Cheh and Lau Kar-leung movies I'd kill to see get a proper hd release. I was actually just last night comparing right next to each other the dvd and prime video (i think hd, it says 7gb/hr on the quality settings) for My Young Auntie and the video looked pretty much the same to me with the dvd audio sounding a little better. Also, My Young Auntie is a great action comedy and the Prime version is not dubbed like a lot of their Shaw Bros stuff is. It's not Dirty Ho level great, but a good time. Thanks for the rundown, I’ve only seen Touch of Zen, Dragon In , and Come Drink With Me so I’ll defintiely hunt down Legend and Lee Khan when I can

I, Butthole posted:The DVD sets of House use a Massive Attack knock off theme song, in Australia at least. It never aired here with the original Teardrop credits either, so when I tried watching HD rips it was an actual surprise when Massive Attack started playing. Streaming in the US gets you the knockoff, too, but the subs still say Massive Attack is playing

Especially with right now and Do the Right Thing. i would guess it's a rights thing, newer/more popular criterion titles are definitely on the channel less frequently and for shorter time spans. maybe it's a programming thing to keep people in month to month though

FancyMike posted:If you like the two King Hu movies Criterion put out (and even their Dragon Inn came out three years later than Eureka's from the same restoration), the other ones with recent restorations have been getting (sometimes inferior) US bluray releases and are all fantastic movies I can't recommend enough, though a little less wuxia. Just not from Criterion, so a lot fewer people will ever notice. Legend of the Mountain from Kino, Fate of Lee Khan and Raining in the Mountain from Film Movement. And Raining in the Mountain is at least streaming right now on Criterion Channel. When the gently caress are we getting a good copy of Come Drink With Me

Franchescanado posted:Wait, really? But Black Swan is also a remake of Perfect Blue... This is the first time I've heard Red Shoes described this way. All the lesbian and identity confusion stuff is from perfect blue, the hallucinatory dance sequences are straight out of Red Shoes and they pretty much the same ending, as would Perfect Blue if it ended like 5 minutes earlier instead of Rumi and Mima both surviving. Remake might be a bit strong but it’s a super clear and heavy influence.
