When the uprising is crushed by the fearsome general Tien Ta (Lo Lieh), San Te seeks refuge in the Shaolin temple andbegs them to teach him how to fight. His persistence impresses the chief abbot and San Te begins his training, determined to avenge his comrades and liberate the people. Gordon Liu is back in Return to the 36th Chamber, this time as conman Chu Jen-Chieh, who makes up for his lack of kung fu skills by posing as San Te to stand up to the Manchu oppressors. But when his cover is blown, Chu decides to seek help from the real San Te at the Shaolin temple. Disciples of the 36th Chamber introduces another legendary folk hero Fong Sai-Yuk (Hsaio Hou), a rebellious teenager who must learn discipline from San Te at the temple, while the Manchus plot to put an end to the Shaolin order once and for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a legacy that stretches from the Ninja Turtles to the Wu Tang Clan, the \u003cem\u003e36th Chamber of Shaolin Trilogy\u003c\/em\u003e is one of the most enduring martial arts sagas of all time, lovingly presented in this stunning special edition packed with extras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLimited Edition Features: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh Definition (1080p) Blu-ray™ presentation of all three films\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUncompressed Mandarin, Cantonese and English mono audio on all three films\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptional English subtitles for the Mandarin and Cantonese soundtracks and English subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing for the English soundtracks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible sleeve featuring original and newly commissioned artwork by Ilan Sheady\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 1 – The 36th Chamber of Shaolin:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K restoration by Celestial Pictures and L'Immagine Ritrovata\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAudio commentary by critic Travis Crawford\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelect-scene commentary by film critic and historian Tony Rayns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterview with star Gordon Liu, filmed in 2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterview with cinematographer Arthur Wong, filmed in 2006\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eShaolin: Birthplace of a Hero and Elegant Trails,\u003c\/em\u003e two archive featurettes with Gordon Liu produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eTiger Style: The Musical Impactof Martial Arts Cinema, \u003c\/em\u003ean overview of Shaw Brothers' influence on hip hop and other music genres, featuring music historian Lovely Jon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCinema Hong Kong: Swordfighting, \u003c\/em\u003ea documentary produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003 and featuring interviews with Gordon Liu, Lau Kar-Leung, Cheng Pei-Pei, John Woo, Sammo Hung, Kara Hui, David Chiang and others\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternate opening credits from the American version titled Master Killer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHong Kong and German theatrical trailers, plus US TV spot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage gallery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisc 2 – Return to the 36th Chamber\/Disciples of the 36th Chamber: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInterview with star Gordon Liu, filmed in 2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eCitizen Shaw, \u003c\/em\u003ea French TV documentary from 1980 directed by Maurice Frydland, in which Sir Run Run Shaw gives an all-access tour of the Shaw Brothers backlot (including behind-the-scenes footage from \u003cem\u003eReturn to the 36th Chamber\u003c\/em\u003e), remastered in High Definition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eHero on the Scaffolding,\u003c\/em\u003e an archival featurette produced by Celestial Pictures in 2003\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlternate opening credits sequences for both films\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHong Kong theatrical trailers for both films\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImage galleries for both films\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specs: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry: Hong Kong\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePicture: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e2.35:1\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLanguage: Mandarin\/Cantonese\/English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSubtitles: English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRuntime: 115\/101\/93\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Discs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Arrow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48510697439403,"sku":null,"price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/2768\/6315\/files\/Shaw-Brothers-Presents-36th-Chamber---January.jpg?v=1793725383","url":"https:\/\/goodieemporium.com\/products\/36th-chamber-of-shaolin-return-to-the-disciples-shaw-brothers-presents-blu-ray-arrow-chambers","provider":"Goodie Emporium ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
