Which of the film genres is your favourite? There doesn't seem to be a poll option so we'll have to do without <_< |

Did you try clicking the "New Poll" button, Nate? Topic: my favorite genre is sci-fi, followed by horror. |

I'd have to say my favorite genre is (classic) horror/sci-fi. |

Horror for me, then sci-fi, then martial arts. |

Josh, are you into the Shaw Brothers martial arts films or the more modern films or both? I used to watch the Shaw Brothers films when I was young, but admit, many of them blurred for me, as far as knowing what titles I was watching. In the past year or so, I've gotten into them more, again and also have picked up a lot of the Dragon Dynasty releases of non-Shaw Brothers films. |

I watch both from time to time, though admittedly, I haven't seen as many of the old 70's films as I'd like. The ones I saw as a kid are a blur as you said, and I really only remember bits and pieces of many of them. Recently however, I watched the classic Last Hurrah for Chivalry, it's a great samurai tale and I believe it was one of the first films directed by John Woo. |

I love the fact that the classic Shaw Brothers films are seeing R1 releases, now. I'd highly recommend; The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, that is a great little film. This morning, I watched the Dragon Dynasty release of, Invisible Target and thought that was a solid effort, too. |

Thanks, Kimi, I'll check that one out. I too enjoy seeing the Shaw films re-released and I'm glad Dragon Dynasty has been putting out all these martial arts films, new and old. The presentation and quality of these DVD's are top notch. |

You're welcome, Josh...I hope you do enjoy it, but I think you will, it's quite good! I agree, Dragon Dynasty has added some excellent bonus features to the releases, as well. :) |

Old thread, but looks like I never posted in it. Mine would be sci-fi or fantasy. |
