Amazon parcels get delivered separately from Canada Post (thank Gren Phalder!) The strike ended Tuesday, but they're going to be backed up for weeks. Probably still won't receive anything I ordered in the last month til January.
Hey Jessie, I am skipping this one as I am the first Golden Harvest set. I have Beach, Taekwondo and Skyhawk (all of them are excellent by the way) and Eureka are releasing Shaolin boxers in March. The other films I don't care for really, I am selective with Jet Li but too much under cranking for me. I am pretty sure Arrow produced an Angela Mao double set with Hapkido and Lady whirlwind, well worth picking up. As for Chuck, I think I will agree to disagree with you on him. Always good to hear your thoughts.
Ah.. so you already own the films you need from this set? Fair enough. What's your thoughts on Chuck Norris? As for the Angela Mao double set, that's awesome I had no idea! Thanks for the heads-up there 🙏😊🙏 I appreciate you checking out the video despite not having interest in this particular box! Thank you 🙏🙏🙏
@thesharphandpath Beach of the war gods is farking brilliant, a real epic and probably my favourite Jimmy Wang Yu film. Taekwondo is superb and a great showcase for Angela Mao, although I think Broken oath is her best film (Eureka recently released it) Skyhawk is also very very good. Chuck Norros, too wooden for me, I struggle watching him so I haven't bothered with Slaughter. Wasn't Delta force voted worst film ever? 🤣 My biggest gripe with Shout is locked audio and subs, you can't switch choices in the middle of films. Eureka are the only label that get everything right (mostly) but I know I live in the UK and don't have to pay for shipping and import tax. Always happy to support mate.
@mitchsfridaynightsongclub2594 Ohhh... Okay. Yeah Delta Force might be the worst, but I wouldn't know as I haven't seen any Chuck Norris films outside of Sidekicks and Way Of The Dragon. I guess I'll be finding out if I like his stuff or not pretty quick with Slaughter and the 4 pack I got comin haha. Nice to know that Beach, Taekwondo, and Skyhawk are gonna be good! I'm pretty excited to dive into these Golden Harvest flicks 😁😁 Also, I don't think I've noticed the menu locking thing yet 🤔 I usually just leave the settings once I select them at the start.
@thesharphandpath the locked subs and audio is a huge pain. Shout do it and on the latest Shawscope Arrow have done it, even though they didn't in the first 2 volumes.
glad to see you got a package shipped to you - is the strike over? let us know watcha think of the movies!

Thanks for the unboxing. Shout are apparently looking into the tight cases on these. They may be doing replacements.
Happy to share my thoughts on this release. Was pretty excited for it! Interesting to hear that there may be replacements 🤔
Come on ! Classic english dub is part of the fun.
@@collectthemall I agree?

@mitchsfridaynightsongclub2594 That is definitely an odd problem to have. Funny how I've never noticed 😅😅
Yeah the cases are way too tight for this case, I literally had to bend the case to pry it out.
I had to jam a finger in one side to pry it out lol. You'd think they'd test these things first before approving a run.
