A Grand Collection of God of Gamblers I & II

Mei Ah released 2 new box sets with "Digitally Remastering from HD Master."
I was waiting for a rerelease to pick these up...

A Grand Collection of God of Gamblers has the two Chow Yun Fat films...
God of Gamblers
God of Gamblers Return

A Grand Collection of God of Gamblers II has the two Stephen Chow films...
God of Gamblers 2
God of Gamblers 3 - Back To Shanghai


Fortune Star/IVL has also released the two Armour of God movies in a box set as well.

My question would be, why would you want a copy of God Of Gamblers' Return?

(I finally got the remastered GoG last year, and got GoG2 at the same time, and watched it for the first time, and think it's awful.)

But, to each their own.

I liked the movies, I own both when they were released individually, but I don't think it's worth to upgrade. No special extras there I presume.

Man, I hope Jackie Chan's Miracles gets a similar spruce-up.

I bought ALL the GoG movies last year when they first came out. What really pisses me off, though is that Mei Ah released Fight Back to School 1 and 2, but never released part 3. Now the only way to get part 3 is the new box set. Watch this: I'll end up buying the box set, and then Mei Ah's gonna release part 3 a week later.

Now, if only Holy Virgin vs. the Evil Dead could get a DVD release...

What's wrong with the HKL edition?

The Fight Back to School movies are hilarious, apart from perhaps the third one (which, by the way, is the only one Wong Jing directed). From what I remember, the first two were just amazingly funny.

You've got a nice list, there, Krayzie. I'll pick up the Fight Back to School and Armour of God box sets on my next order.
