Yeah, that'd be cool.

I dont know if this one has been done yet, but I was thinking of comparing three Tom Yum Goong DVD's. Korean, Thai, HK Discs.

I have the Korean and the Thai, if someone could do some caps from the HK Disc I could set up a thread on this subject.

Hey Mark,
I've got the R2UK Extended cut of Casualties of War on the way. Do you want to do a comparison with the old TC DVD?

Please remember to note the approximate time signatures of when you took the caps and then post them in the thread, cheers.

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 24 Aug 2006, 18:33

I think I'm just gonna keep the original theatrical cut.

I like the film as it is and don't imagine the new additions will change much, but I'd like to hear your opinion of it.

I watched the deleted scenes on the current disc (which comprise most of the restored material) and there's nothing I could see that really enhanced the story or characters.

If you want me to do matching caps from the R2 theatrical I will.

Yes please but then only one has English subs.

I'll do an Apocalypse Now Redux: R4 vs. R1 Complete Dossier comparison in the weekend. Brad can add his Frenchie caps later on.

Good idea.

Can someone do a comparison of:

Miracles (HKL v Joy Sales)

I won't get rid of my HKL at all but according to the CD-WOW specs the Joy Sales/Fortune Star Miracles has deleted scenes from the Taiwan version (rather like Crime Story).
Do you think its worth a double dip?

Second the MIRACLES request.

Sorry if everyone was waiting for me to do it...

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 21 Sep 2006, 18:42

Is "The Canton Godfather" it's original title? Miracles is much better.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 21 Sep 2006, 18:50

No, AFAIK Miracles is the original title (or at least a literal translation of the Chinese title).
THE CANTON GODFATHER or MR. CANTON AND LADY ROSE are AKA titles.

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 22 Sep 2006, 00:52

Literal translation of the Chinese title: Miracles

Original HK-English title: Mr. Canton and Lady Rose.

International title: Miracles

No idea where The Canton Godfather came from, though the old sell-thru UK tape used this also.

Can someone give me some IVL caps from Mr Vampire ?
It's for this comparison:

Thanks.

Anyone got the new MIRACLES yet?

Anyone?

Bueller... Bueller??

Whoa! e-m-s recently released "Full Contact" in Germany in a new HD transfer. I didn't believe how good it looks compared to all other releases out there. Will have the disc by tomorrow or Friday and do a little comparison with the HKL. Bugger I sold my MeiAh disc, but the e-m-s wipes the floor with it anyway.

If I get a chance I'll do a Lawrence of Arabia R1 SE vs. UK R2 SB (when the SB arrives). They should be wildly different.

HungFist · Post by **HungFist** » 14 Oct 2006, 11:14

Anyone got Death Trance R1?

Please do Apocalypse Now Redux R2F first, thanks.

I'm getting THE EYE CE (Tartan, R2) so does anyone else want to supply caps from varients for a comp?

£3.99 from CD-Wow.
