Lady Vengeance: Korean 2-disc vs HK Vidéo (french)
Note: both editions have the fade to black version.
Only the french disc has DD5.1 tracks. The korean disc only has DTS.

French:
Wow, I wasn't expecting such a difference. Look at the guy's hair.
+There's a slight yellowish tint on the korean disc.

French:
Once again, the french disc is much much sharper.

OK, overall the korean disc isn't too bad.
Still, the HK Vidéo is 10x sharper without using edge-enhancement.

Now I'm just "that weird french guy with a cat avatar who comes to BnB once a year for no reason and then disappears again".

I never said that.The Korean DVD wins for me by having DTS on the F2B. Does the French Colour version also only have DD5.1?
I said:
Because the korean fade-to-black version has no DD5.1. Only DTS.Only the french disc has DD5.1 tracks.
On the french discs:
There's a french DTS track for the colour version.
There's a korean DTS track for the F2B version.
There are DD5.1 tracks on both versions (and for both languages).
OK. Still, if you look at the last shot... kinda like VHS vs DVD.It's sharper yes but not by much.

Well the Colour version is messed up then only offering Korean DD5.1, at least the F2B offers both over the Korean DVD.Tom2681 wrote:On the french discs:

Dubs don't count in my book, the French studios do like to go overboard with their stupid dubs. Why not include Korean DTS and DD5.1 on both cuts with a French DD5.1 on both cuts? French DTS shouldn't have been allowed.

About the soundtrack:
I think it's only fair.
The average french movie-goer prefers dubs.
He gets a french DTS track on the colour version.
The average french purist prefers the original language.
He gets a korean DTS track on the director's preferred version.
Everybody's happy (at least in France ).

The French are stupid then , fair far from it. Do many average French Movie-goers even know what DTS is? I think not hence why bother? Give DTS to both cuts.Tom2681 wrote:The average french movie-goer prefers dubs.
Give DD5.1 to Average Joe it's all they'll understand anyway.
Thankfully the British DVD creators seem to no longer inflict such stupidity on to us, see British Films/DVDs are better at something. I can only think of 3 Tartan DVDs (for example) in the last 5 years which have English dubs (IA-IA-IA3) and I doubt Tartan created them.

Oh yes.The French are stupid then .
Of course they do:Do many average French Movie-goers even know what DTS is?
Average Joe - "Euh... DTS is good sound, oui... good sound."
FYI: 87% of the french population have never watched a subtitled film.
At least 50% don't even know that they CAN watch these films in their original language.

There was only an English dub on IA1, Tartan's IA2&3 only have Catonese tracks. Their Hard Boiled remaster had a number of dub tracks though:- English 5.1 & mono IIRC.Thankfully the British DVD creators seem to no longer inflict such stupidity on to us, see British Films/DVDs are better at something.
