Updates for existing entries at the main scope filmography:
The 1976 film currently listed as DRAGON DIES HARD was released in its native Taiwan as BRUCE LEE WE MISS YOU. The latter title is currently listed as an AKA, but it now becomes the film's primary title, while DRAGON DIES HARD becomes an AKA.
Online clips confirm ELIANA, ELIANA (2002) was shot with anamorphic lenses.
LA FELICITÀ NON COSTA NIENTE (2003): This is currently listed as an incomplete entry, because until now I hadn't been able to confirm whether it was shot in 'CropScope' or anamorphic Technovision. It turns out the film was shot in 'CropScope'.
The entry for FINAL MISSION FINAL at the Hong Kong Movie Database (HKMDb) avers that the 1980 copyright date is estimated rather than confirmed, so I've added a question mark next to the copyright year.
Also at HKMDb, the director of FISTS OF DRAGONS (1977) has finally been identified. Same goes for FOUR HANDS OF DEATH (1977).
An online trailer for FOUR FAST GUNS (1959) confirms that it was shot in Superscope 235 rather than anamorphic.
JAWS OF THE BLACK DRAGON is an AKA for THE EIGHTEEN JADE ARHATS (1978).
LEGACY OF DRACULA: THE BLOODTHIRSTY DOLL is an AKA for BLOODSUCKING DOLL (1970). Though currently listed as having been shot in Panavision, there is no such credit on the film itself, though it was shot with anamorphic lenses.
NINJA HEAT is an AKA for BLACK LIST (1972).
SAFETY NOT GUARANTEED (2012): Currently listed as an incomplete entry, since I hadn't been able to confirm whether it was shot in Panavision or 'CropScope'. In fact, it was shot in 'CropScope'.
