But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to turn to.

New Fist of Fury Limited Edition (1976 -- Hong Kong) Almost five years after breaking all Hong Kong box office records with the instant classic "Fist of Fury," his last collaboration with the late Bruce Lee, director Lo Wei got to work on a sequel. It would be the first major leading role for Lo's latest discovery, a young actor who had been a stuntman on the original film but would soon be as massive a star as Lee. His name: Jackie Chan. Shanghai, 1910. With the Jing Wu martial arts school in shambles and pressure from the Japanese armies to suppress a Chinese uprising after Chen Zhen's martyrdom, Chen's fiancée Li Er (Nora Miao, reprising her role from "Fist of Fury") escapes to Japanese-occupied Taiwan to hide at her grandfather's school. Despite her attempts to lay low, she runs afoul of karate master Okimura (Chan Sing, "The Iron-Fisted Monk"), who plans to take over all of the Chinese-run schools in Taiwan. Amidst all of this, a young aimless thief, known only as Ah Long (Jackie Chan), befriends Li Er after unknowingly stealing the nunchaku once wielded by the late Chen. Will he give into his fears, or will he learn the martial arts of Jing Wu and fight alongside Li Er against the Japanese? Considered to be one of the few "official" sequels to a Bruce Lee film, and now freshly restored in two different versions, "New Fist of Fury" is the first spark that would eventually lead Jackie Chan to becoming the worldwide star he is today.

Antonio Moreno ("The Searchers") was her equal in terms of talent and sex appeal. The director Herbert Brenon ("Beau Geste") was one of the greatest directors of his day and he was assisted by the legendary cinematographer, James Wong Howe. Cast members Wallace Beery and Adoph Menjou's brilliant performances add to the pure joy of the film. Together, cast and crew created one of the great romance epics of the silent era. Restored by Eye Filmmuseum and archivist Rob Byrne using material from archives around the world, "The Spanish Dancer" is a joy to behold. The film is action-packed, witty, and romantic with huge sets and a cast of thousands. Brenon keeps the adventure going full steam ahead while Negri and Moreno show why they were huge stars of their day. Negri, a trained dancer from her days at Warsaw's Imperial Ballet, was happily matched with famed choreographer Ernest Belcher (father of Marge Champion and mentor to Gwen Verdon, Cyd Charisse, and Maria Tallchief) to create dance pieces unlike any others of the silent era. Formats: Blu-ray. Extras: Audio commentaries by film historian Scott Eyman and dance historian Naima Prevots; restoration demonstration.(Milestone Film & Video).
