November 27.

my HT not yet complete, no enough budget for the sound setup, maybe in two month time will complete, so watching mkv and wait for the time to get the real deal.

Online stores will usually hold their Black Friday sales about 1 month in advance rite?

No. Based on the past experience, if not mistaken, the really great deal only last few hours and may be also need to include "while stock last"...

Based on my limited knowledge of Black Friday sales (only knew about it last year), the sales will go for weeks before the actual Friday (and beyond...) but 'THE' sale will only run for several hours only on the Friday itself (maybe 8-9 hours tops! ) and features the most attractive new & popular releases . Last year, the so-called 'new & popular' titles are like Transformers ($10), Iron Man, Indy 4 & Kung Fu Panda (all $15), amongst others....

Note your diary.... I mean your hphone, iPhone, pdas or whatever nowadays...

I did a 20 minutes of fast review for 'Once Upon A Time In China' late yesterday night
One statement that is being circulated in the net about the PQ that I'd like to correct is
'This is definitely not a DVD upscaled version'

Movie:4.5/5
The storyline is the best among the OUATIC series. The fighting scenes are awesome and enjoying, eventhough not as good as OUATIC 2 (where the fighting scenes are designed and choreographed by Yuen Wo Ping, who choreographed the action scenes in Matrix). This in fact is one of the best movies directed by Tsui Hark which won him numerous awards including Best Director. Because of this movie, Hong Kong movie industry revived the martial art craze and started to produce tons of martial art movies. It's also the turning point for Jet Lee to become a renown international action superstar.

PQ: 2/5
This is the most disappointing part. Like I said, this is definitely not a DVD upscaled version. Fortune Star had done their part to make it a HD version. But the fact is it is a bad transfer, though not as bad as Tomb Raider. I don't know whether they do not have the technology or just being lazy to do a proper transfer, or the film stock itself is too bad in condition for restoration. It's very obvious DNR is heavily applied throughout the film, too heavy till you can see the colors and the shape of objects are distorted. For grain hater, you can hardly see any grain in the film, though you might still get to see some grainy effect in fast action scenes. The people face is waxed, but the effect is not natural. It looks like all those people are putting up a heavy make up.

AQ: 3.5/5
The Cantonese Track is in Dolby TrueHD 7.1. I don't have a 7.1 set-up, but even running at 5.1 the effect of the movie is considered good. The bass is not the biling balang type, but you still can feel the LFE on the punching scenes. The surround effect is also good, as you can hear the whistling sound of the ships coming from surround speakers.

I don't have the Remastered DVD version to do the comparison, but only the cheap speedo ayam version which is far worse. Overall it is still a good movie with a great in-depth storyline. The weakest link still lies on the PQ. If you don't mind the PQ, it's still worth for collection. Now I will wait for the release of 'Once Upon A Time In China 2' to see whether Fortune Star will make any improvement on PQ.

Thanks for the indepth review. No I need to make up my mind.

that film have the greatest cast ever for a porno, three oscar winner

i watch it before, dont feel it is that bad, just the directory went overboard with some of the more "extreme scene".

have to wait until hong kong movies born into really blu.......

I just received a new BD, but that surface of that BD got lot of scratch marks. I just wrote Amazon for a replacement copy.

But the main point is I don't why I order this movie in the first place. This movie got bad review.

"Flesh for The Beast (Uncut) Blu-ray" This is the movie name.

...sounds more like Flash For Some Flesh

Bro, out of curiosity.... eventhough there's a lot of scratch marks on the disc but it still plays fine without any frozen frame or locked images, right? the amazing of blu-ray disc hard-coating

yeah this Tough Coat is pretty tough.. if normal CD or DVD, sure hairline scratch liao.

always complain...
later your name will kena ban from amzon..

BD not even out yet

I do agree with the critics that Transformers 2 is quite a disappointment from the 1st... but with awesome PQ, AQ coupled with megan foxy, it's a must buy nonetheless

the fembot from Australia no good meh?

the one with the nice tongue??
