This is a list of every known Hong Kong film that had an extended edition released on a Japanese Laserdisc pre-DVD era City Hunter (1993) [PCLP-00477] https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=3564 Dragons Forever (1988) [G78F0295] https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=1372 Heart of Dragon (1985) [SF078-5089] https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=2705 Police Story (1985) [PCLP-00086] https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=2706 Police Story 2 (1988) [G92F0316] https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=842 AFAIK that's all of them, but if there's any that I'm forgetting, please feel free to mention them. Except for City Hunter, all extended versions have been released on Blu-ray. |

I remembered another one: The Protector (1985) (Hong Kong Version) https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=1304 While this version is on Blu-ray, I'm unsure if the LD it was released on is G88F0051 since I'm unsure about the running time. |

If I remember correct the japanese version of Protector with Jackie Chan was a special edition ??? The Japanese edition has three versions of the movie, but HK and Japanese versions are not English friendly, and are in standard definition only. The Japanese extended version containing scenes from both other versions and outtakes credits (~105min). The Extended japanese version contains the following scenes that were NOT included in Jackie Chan's Hong Kong edit: - Billy Wong & Garoni learning about the massage parlor from a native HK police officer after talking to Superintendent Whitehead. - Billy Wong & Garoni discussing their plans outside of the police station after getting scolded by Whitehead - Benny Garucci & David Ho talking in their car after picking up Garucci from the airport (exclusive to the Japanese version) - Benny Garucci meeting with Harold Ko at Ko's office to exchange money. Like the HK version, the Japanese cut is still missing the funeral scene This is Jackie's best cop movie, love the fight scene between Bill Wallace and Jackie at the end of the movie |
