Lucky Stars movie series
I did a search and the *one* other thread didnt really answer anything.
Are these all the movies in the "Lucky Stars" series?
Winners & Sinners
My Lucky Stars
Twinkle, Twinkle Lucky Stars
Lucky Stars Go places
Return of the Lucky Stars
How to meet the Lucky Stars
Also, what links these movies as a "series" aside from actors playing similar roles and the name "Lucky Stars"?
And, if those are all in the series, where could i find the last three movies? Especially "How to meet the Lucky Stars"?

I would also count 'Ghost Punting' in that series but I don't think that's ever been released on DVD.....
I'll have to go home and check what I have...I know I have the first three, not sure about any of the rest.

I have the first three movies in the series, but aside from being the same/similar actors and the characters being bumbling ex-cons there isnt alot that ties the first few "Lucky Stars" movies to "Winners and Sinners".

"Winners and Sinners" is pretty widely considered the first in the Lucky Stars series, but the only real tie is the star line up. The others have a certain vague continuity, at least in characterization.
As far as I know "How to Meet..." has only been out in vhs and vcd formats, I need that one as well for my Sammo collection(75+ and growing).

YesAsia had "How to meet" on VCD some years ago but not anymore.
I do recall from "Twinkle, Twinkle" that they run into the guy with curly hair (John Sham) and someone calls him "Curly" (From "Winners and Sinners") and he says something like "my name isnt Curly".
It also seems that Richard Ng is the one who appeared in most (if not all) of the movies in this series.
