Still no release date, even in China. A 2014 date is listed for the Chinese market so if it does ever get released there domestically I'm sure it won't be too much longer after that it will show up for streaming & cable.

Following up on this one, the Chinese release date is now December of 2015. If it gets released it'll mark nearly five years of post-production work.
