As long as I get a OCN 4k Killer with a good encode and no Rovata grade I will be happy

A Chinese Ghost Story Trilogy has a remaster BD release (Maybe two different transfers?)
City on Fire has a remastered BD release
Prison on Fire Series has a HD release I think

I don't think these have HD releases.
I think a German label released SD upscales under a remastered banner, maybe even bootlegs.

Good to know, thanks CSchmidlapp

Prison: I didn't know, I was just told that by someone that the two got a remaster.
ACGS Trilogy: I compared the old upscaled FS HK BD and the "remasters" and they looked different. Need to find that old BD to compare again.
COF: was this the German upscale? Need to look at it tonight haven't watched it.

I think these were all releasd fairly recently on the same label, 'Cargo Records' in Germany.
They released The Killer and Hard Boiled as well.
As far as I know there unofficial bootlegs and the company is registered as a florist!
@MrBrown I think you gave this information to me?

Its a guess your refering to these though, and Ive not seen them personally.

I'm not sure that ABT II and III were remastered, just the first one. Or if they were they might not have been released yet.

Has everyone taken a look at the World Cinema Library label UHD releases of A Better Tomorrow and Once a Thief?

The City on Fire is the same one as you posted, bummer it's an upscale. The Ghost Story that I have does have a different color timing although it doesn't look good.

Both ACGS appear to be upscales. Odd about the color. I guess the Germans did a color pass on the upscale.
