Here's hoping we see more of this sort of thing in the lead up to Stephen Chow's latest, CJ7, hitting screens in Hong Kong. Classic Chow martial arts comedies Royal Tramp 1 & 2 are getting the deluxe remaster treatment, both films being fully restored and packed with a third disc of extras for release on December 24th. Loosely based on the same source material as the classic Duke Of Mount Deer television series these films were some of Chow's earlier successes and feature fight choreography by Hero and House of Flying Daggers choreographer Tony Ching! Yes, these are pretty much a must.

I pre-ordered these last night, I'm psyched!
Good lord, this is the third re-mastered versions of these films to come out on DVD. I bought the original re-mastered version, then the recent re-re-mastered and now they have a re-re-re-mastered version coming out!
I'll be curious what the extras are. Otherwise, will be hard to buy these again until a HD-DVD or Blu-Ray version comes out.
