Asian Movies in HD!

I wouldn't expect decent extras for movies such as those anyway.

Without knowing anything about the film, the title "Behind the Yellow Line" sounds really racist.

It's a reference to the voiceover on the tube train platform.

Oh right, thanks. We don't have subways in NZ. I wish we did though, would solve the horrendous traffic problems in Auckland. My Dad reckons they should build a monorail.

Tom, can you add

Sukiyaki Western - Django (English Language) (Blu-Ray) (Japan Version)
http://global.yesasia.com/en/PrdDept.as ... 005182336/

ordered that and CJ7!

There's not too much point in keping the first page up to date, it's already missing LOADS of Japanese releases.

Please list them then, so Tom can add them.

There is every point maintaining it. Tom just needs some help that's all.

Shinobi is not a keeper, unfortunately.

I heard that was the case.

The film and disc looks woeful, but at least it has Mono.

Is the PQ as bad as they say?

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 02 Apr 2008, 14:51

The pq is very average,you wouldn't know it was a BD but it's better,much better than the dvd.for less than a tenner i'm quite happy.

That's a German BD right? I presume it won't have English subs?

I like the new title and also keeping the original too, it's probably the best re-title yet.

saltysam · Post by **saltysam** » 04 Apr 2008, 21:57

it's not out until may,maybe it will (hopefully)

That's not likely though right?

Until now no e-m-s release ever had English subtitles and only German subtitles are listed on their site:
