Hi all you kung fu film fans

I just wanted to know if any of you have any CINE ASIA dvds in your collection, and what do you think of them. They are a company ran by the people who brought HONG KONG LEGENDS dvds to your dvd players.

All I can say is if you liked HKL then you should also like CineAsia as the whole style and extras are done pretty much the same. The biggest difference is that CineAsia are releasing some Shaw Brothers films due to their deal with Dragon Dynasty, and they also release films from other Asian countries along with the Chinese releases.

I picked up two Cine Asia titles today Chocolate on blu-ray and Raging Phonix on dvd. I have seen the first but not RP. Both start Jija Janin, think I'll be having a double bill tonight.

Chocolate is outstanding, Ive not seen Raging Phoenix yet but everyone I know who's seen it wasn't that impressed.

Cine Asia are a great company, they have bought the rights to Ip Man 2 recently. Unfortunately they dont have any Shaw films, no UK company are releasing them at the moment. Why dont we try and pursuade Arrow to release some? :-)
