No rush CJ, sorry to hear that. I'm also then I guess that I've yet to notice all the out of sync problems you guys do.

I have to say that the IVL Project A's do look better than HKL. The 5.1 tracks are just okay, but I don't really care because mono is included. If you want to save some cash, just get the Zoke versions. They're dirt cheap and identical to IVL's.

The thing is no version is perfect it seems. You just have to pick the best of a bad bunch.

The mono is a downmix so you might have trouble finding someone who's bought it.

Could someone please compile a list of the dud Bond UEs? A second list of chronicling the worthwhile UEs would be much much appreciated as well. Thanks.

Except for Goldeneye (and maybe Tomorrow Never Dies) it's all subjective which is dud or not.

hey,

you were still asking for comparison long after I posted the above links. At any rate, you're welcome.

Fearless R2UK anyone ?
I've got the R1US.
I used to be "the man who loves the movies you hate".
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've got the R2 (UK) on order - but probably won't get it until after the New Year now.

Oh, and I can't capture optional subtitles.

Have you posted a comparison on Bullets ?
Are you sad because I haven't put it in the database ?


Tell me about it, so I can either:
-Explain to you why it's a pathetic comparison and why it will never find its way into the database. :lol:
or
-Humbly apologize for having forgotten to add such a brilliant comparison to the database. :oops:


Feel free to PM me about it.

Is this actually a film or some perverted contest between you and Tom?

Huh ? :D
Mine is bigger than yours, kid. No comparison is necessary.

Does anyone have the Happy Together R4 DVD? A comparison between it and the R1 SE would be good.

I can add the R1 SE captures. The only three "English subtitled" versions worth considering are the R1 SE, R4 and HK R3 Remastered but seeing as the latter costs a small fortune I don't expect anyone to have that.

I'm thinking about "possibly" selling my R1 box set and picking up another copy of Happy Together along with the 4 Korean Remastered DVDs of: ATGB, DOB, CE & FA. I don't like ATGB "that much" but I do like DOBW and now I have CE/FA on order it makes more sense.

The UK R2 is a mess. So if anyone has the R4 speak up :D

No, but it's anamorphic and mono so I would expect it's the best version.
