Chang Cheh’s company name card before the opening of Just Heroes (CN Entertainment Blu-Ray)

Technically supposed to be a part of the Golden Princess library that Shout licensed earlier this year,  Just Heroes ended up exempt from this due to the film being bogusly acquired by Star Alliance Movies. This is supposedly caused by SA’s acquisition of the Hong Kong Chang He film company’s films (Chang Cheh’s post Shaw company). All home video releases of the film (before the CN Entertainment Blu-ray) including the 1992 Golden Cinema City HK LaserDisc and 2000’s Metropolitan French DVD/VHS would be licensed though Golden Princess and Asian rights holders of GP library, Fortune Star (distributed through Media Asia at time) respectively. Though Chang Cheh is listed as an executive producer on the film, it was always a Golden Princess distributed/Magnum produced film same as The Killer. Chang Cheh’s company never has owned the rights to the film itself. Knowing the resources and money that Shout has, it would be beneficial for them to rescue to this film from its legal limbo and give it the 4K restoration and release it deserves along with the rest of the Woo classics they have already restored/released in 4K such as A Better Tomorrow, Hard Boiled, and The Killer.
