Having produced over 1,000 films throughout its existence, and launched the careers of numerous martial arts icons from Gordon Liu to Ti Lung, Shaw Brothers would last until the late 90s when its remake of ''Boxer From Shantung'', titled ''Film/Hero1997'', would be its last major production before it closed down. Nowadays, the former Shaw Brothers studio backlot is more popular as a tourist attraction. It briefly re-opened in 2002, for filming the House of Blue Leaves scene in the first ''Film/KillBill'' movie, directed by Creator/QuentinTarantino.
