Royal Warriors - Michelle Yeoh (1986) - Queen's Pier, Central

The finale of the car chase takes places in the same location as the film's proper finale, so I'll post about that at the end. In the meantime, determined to get revenge for his wife and daughter's deaths, Yamamoto secretly makes a deal with some local arms dealers, headed by HK movie stalwart, Eddie Maher. Yamamoto is picked up by the landing steps of Queen's Pier in Central and taken to a cargo ship moored in the harbour. Sadly, like the rest of the old Central waterfront, Queen's Pier is a distant memory (it was demolished in 2008), though not so long ago the idea of it being re-erected at the same site, as a monument, was being discussed. I have no idea whether this has/will happen.
