Shaw Scope Volume Two/ 2 Collection NEW SEALED BLU RAY **CELLOPHANE TORN**

Picking up where Volume One left off, this sophomore collection of Hong Kong cinema classics draws together many of the best films from the final years of the Shaw Brothers studio, proving that while the end was nigh, these merchants of martial arts mayhem weren#39;t going to go out without a fight! Armed with stunning special features and ravishing new restorations, this boxset is even bigger and bolder than the last one.We begin with kung fu master Lau Kar-leung#39;s instant classic The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, in which his adoptive brother Gordon Liu achieved overnight stardom as the young man who unexpectedly finds spiritual enlightenment on the path to vengeance; Lau and Liu followed the original with two comically inventive sequels, Return to the 36th Chamber and Disciples of the 36th Chamber, both included here. Already established as a genius at blending dazzling action with physical comedy, Lau himself plays the lead role in the hilarious Mad Monkey Kung Fu, coupled here with Lo Mar#39;s underrated Five Superfighters. Next, we once again meet Chang Cheh#39;s basher boy band the Venom Mob in no less than four of their best-loved team-ups: Invincible Shaolin, The Kid with the Golden Arm, Magnificent Ruffians and culminating in the all-star Ten Tigers of Kwangtung, co-starring Ti Lung and Fu Sheng.After Lau brings us perhaps his best high-kicking comedy with My Young Auntie, a playful star vehicle for his real-life muse Kara Hui, we see Shaw Brothers fully embracing Eighties excess in our strangest double feature yet: Wong Jing#39;s breathtakingly wild shoot-#39;em-up Mercenaries from Hong Kong, and Kuei Chih-hung#39;s spectacularly unhinged black magic meltdown The Boxer#39;s Omen. Last but certainly not least, Lau Kar-leung directs the last major Shaw production, Martial Arts of Shaolin, filmed in mainland China with a hot new talent named Jet Li in the lead role; it is paired in this set with The Bare-Footed Kid, a reverent remake of a Chang Cheh classic with Johnnie To (Running Out of Time) in the director#39;s chair and Lau back on fight choreography duties, in arguably the ultimate filmed tribute to Shaws#39; everlasting cinematic legacy.Limited Edition Blu-ray Collection ContentsHigh Definition (1080p) Blu-ray presentations of all fourteen films, including nine new 2K restorations by Arrow FilmsIllustrated 60-page collectors#39; book featuring new writing by David Desser, Jonathan Clements, Lovely Jon and David West, plus cast and crew listings and notes on each film by Simon AbramsNew artwork by Mike Lee-Graham, Chris Malbon, Kagan McLeod, Colin Murdoch, Kung Fu Bob O#39;Brien, Lucas Peverill, Ilan Sheady, Tony Stella, Darren Wheeling and Jolyon YatesHours of never-before-seen bonus features including several cast and crew interviews from the Frédéric Ambroisine Video ArchiveTwo CDs of music from the De Wolfe Music library as heard in several of the films, exclusive to this collectionDisc One – The 36th Chamber Of ShaolinBrand new 4K restoration by Celestial Pictures and L#39;Immagine RitrovataNewly restored uncompressed Mandarin, Cantonese and English original mono audioNewly translated English subtitles, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubBrand new feature commentary by critic Travis CrawfordBrand new select-scene commentary by film critic and historian Tony RaynsInterview with star Gordon Liu, filmed in 2003Interview with cinematographer Arthur Wong, filmed in 2006Shaolin: Birthplace of a Hero and Elegant Trails, two archive featurettes with Gordon Liu produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003Tiger Style: The Musical Impact of Martial Arts Cinema, a newly filmed overview of Shaw Brothers#39; influence on hip hop and other music genres, featuring music historian Lovely JonCinema Hong Kong: Swordfighting, the second instalment in a three-part documentary produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003 and featuring interviews with Gordon Liu, Lau Kar-leung, Cheng Pei-pei, John Woo, Sammo Hung, Kara Hui, David Chiang and othersAlternate opening credits from the American version titled Master KillerHong Kong and German theatrical trailers, plus US TV spotImage galleryDisc Two – Return To The 36th Chamber / Disciples Of The 36th ChamberUncompressed Cantonese, Mandarin and English original mono audio for both filmsNewly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubsInterview with star Gordon Liu, filmed in 2003Citizen Shaw, a French TV documentary from 1980 directed by Maurice Frydland, in which Sir Run Run Shaw gives an all-access tour of the Shaw Brothers backlot (including behind-the-scenes footage from Return to the 36th Chamber), remastered in high definitionHero on the Scaffolding, an archive featurette produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003Alternate opening credits sequences for both filmsHong Kong theatrical trailers for both filmsImage galleries for both filmsDisc Three – Mad Monkey Kung Fu / Five SuperfightersBrand new 2K restorations of both films from the original negatives by Arrow FilmsUncompressed Cantonese, Mandarin and English original mono for both filmsNewly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubsBrand new commentary for Mad Monkey Kung Fu by martial arts cinema experts Frank Djeng and Michael WorthNewly filmed appreciation of Mad Monkey Kung Fu by film critic and historian Tony RaynsInterview with actor Hsiao Hou, filmed in 2004Shaw in the USA, a brand new featurette on how Shaw Brothers broke America featuring Grady Hendrix and Chris Poggiali, authors of These Fists Break BricksHong Kong and US theatrical trailers for Mad Monkey Kung FuHong Kong theatrical trailer and UK VHS promo for Five SuperfightersImage galleries for both filmsDisc Four – Invincible Shaolin / The Kid With The Golden ArmBrand new 2K restorations of both films from the original negatives by Arrow FilmsUncompressed Mandarin and English original mono audio for both films, plus Cantonese mono for Invincible ShaolinNewly translated English subtitles for both films, plus optional hard-of-hearing subtitles for the English dubsInterview with action director Robert Tai, filmed in 2003Poison Clan Rocks The World, a brand new visual essay on the Venom Mob written and narrated by author Terrence J.

If you've changed your mind and no longer want an item, you can still request a return, but the seller doesn't have to accept it. If the buyer changes their mind about a purchase and wants to return an item, they may need to pay return postage costs, depending on the seller's return policy. Sellers can provide a return postage address and additional return postage information for the buyer. Sellers pay for return postage if there's a problem with the item. For example, if the item doesn't match the listing description, is damaged or defective or is counterfeit. By law, customers in the European Union also have the right to cancel the purchase of an item within 14 days beginning from the day you receive, or a third party indicated by you (other than the carrier) receives, the last good ordered by you (if delivered separately). This applies to all products except for digital items (e.g. Digital Music) that are provided immediately to you with your acknowledgement, and other items such as video, DVD, audio, video games, Sex and Sensuality products and software products where the item has been unsealed.

Refunds

Sellers have to offer a refund for certain items only if they are faulty, such as: Personalised items and custom-made items, Perishable items, Newspapers and magazines, Unwrapped CDs DVDs and computer software. If you used your PayPal balance or bank account to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your PayPal account balance. If you used a credit or debit card to fund the original payment, the refunded money will go back to your card. The seller will effect the refund within three working days but it may take up to 30 days for Paypal to process the transfer. For payments funded partially by a card and partially by your balance/bank, the money taken from your card will go back to your card and the remainder will return to your PayPal balance.
