Shout Factory acquires Golden Princess library

[Beber]

Based on what I've been told, Arrow has indeed redone the color grading of Hard Boiled to better match the Criterion DVD and other sources believed to be more accurate to original prints than what Shout has released. The credits have had additional work done to them too, also for accuracy. Plus, other John Woo films have had additional work done after what Shout has done. So good news and the wait is not too long now until the discs are released.

I wonder if anyone at Arrow has followed these threads
I imagine the open credits will be white and not yellow, with the rest blended in better with the image.
I wonder if we will get the English variations also with the Red and White text if the english dub is selected on the menu.
I'm very excited and can not wait too see them.

I'm looking forward to the Atmos mixes, these films scream out for an expanded, immersive but respectful surround remix like the 88 films 'Dragons Forever' one, which was awesome.

Just watching it now. Credits are indeed white and the grading is in line with the Arrow trailer.

EDIT: Slightly off topic, but there is also a Jackie Chan boxset containing HK cuts of Rumble in the bronx and Who am I also available, June 29th!

Just saw that, little odd Arrow seem to be doing A Better Tomorrow last when Shout did it first. Anyway I'm hoping when Arrow announce it there is the option of just the first movie instead of the box.
