Martial Arts Classics Get Some New Attention
Sometimes I focus on new movies so much I forget about movies that helped shaped the genre into what it is today. You may remember me talking about the re-release of Dragon Inn last week, and now there are some retouched images as well as a new poster.
Now, these images look really good for a movie that came out back in 1992. I’m not sure how many people will flock to the theaters to see the same movie with better visuals and sound, but I guess Star Wars is doing it, so why not?
I’d also like to link this video that has been provided thanks to ReelEastHK, which is an alternate cut for Jet Li’s Hero. It is the fight between Jet and Donnie, but there are some extra angles and poses for those enthusiasts out there. I’m not sure how Bey Logan got ahold of this clip, but I’m really hoping he keeps putting out little snippets like this when he gets them.
Sometimes these films get forgotten, so it’s nice to look back at some of these and remember how awesome they are. It’s been over 7 years since I’ve seen Hero myself, I think it’s due time I give it another watch!
