I guess I have to wait 60 days. I'm eager to see this. I'm confused, did he make multiple versions? I really wanted to see the version with the HK original music. Is it only a version that mixes and matches the Miramax music? Or is everything after the plane opening the original?

One version that incorporates the HK version with the exclusive scenes from the Miramax cut.
One version that's his preferred edit.

The FW reconstructed version with original sync-sound is very much the movie that I remember watching from a copied VHS back in the day. The original voices of the actors, as bad/goofy as they are, are all part of the appeal.

I know it's been said before, but WB really need to give this movie the restoration it deserves

Maybe someday they will. But I've often wondered if the original negative has been destroyed or lost?

At this point, when it comes to Jackie Chan films, it's probably the only movie of his to not even have an anamorphic remaster of its original theatrical version!

I do happen to have a scanned "grind house version" with hardcoded Chinese subs. It's not full 1080p resolution. But if someone with better resources and skills than me can clean it up and cover up those subs, it'll be the closest we can get.
