I think i gave away all my VHS tapes, of which there were about two dozen JC films
Same here & had all the classics too.

I can only assume that the Dubs were owned by the original Distributors ... or when the release rights changed, new dubs were needed ?
I remember Bey Logan in the UK having some affiliation with the ‘made in Hong Kong’ label and new Dubs were on those dvd’s st the time.
Back in the late 80’s there were some cinema screenings in London at The Scalia Cinema showing Jackie Chan movies along with Donnie Yen / Enter The Dragon & some other films.
Anyone else go to these ?
Can anyone remember the very first releases in the UK on vhs ?
I remember renting Police Story for the first time & being blown away by Jackie Chan and his incredible JC Stunt Team
Armour Of God soon followed then Wheels On Meals, Project A etc.
All these UK releases had brilliant dubbing tracks & far superior to ANY of the dvd or blu ray releases ... I assume they are lost to history with whoever were the Distributors back then ????
I wish they could recover these dubbing tracks though as they really added to the films and were really funny.
I found this image on the Net of the ‘original’ uk vhs and it appears ‘American imperial’ was the distributor:

Anyone else remember seeing the original dubs.
Would have been great if they could have obtained those for this Police Story release.
They stuck the replacement disc to the outside of the envelope?!?
