Best DVD edition of My Lucky Stars ?

Post by tom2681 »

Hi !

I have the HKL dvd and I'm sick of the cuts (sammo stealing the car - the "rape" joke). :?

-There's the FOX dvd, but it has dubtitles which (according to some reviews) is very annoying. :evil:
-There's the original Universe HK disc, which is non-anamorphic and would look quite ugly on a big screen. :|

Isn't there any other edition ?

I seem to remember that a Sammo Hung - Jackie Chan boxset was supposed to be released by Fortune Star back in 2004. Any news on that ?

Thanks. :D

At the moment the Universe is the best edition... at least until an IVL release make an appearence.

Personally out of those three I'd take the Fox DVD but that's just me. I'd prefer dubtitles over shoddy AV (although it's a close call).

For example I prefer the Fox ITLOD4 DVD over the HKL even with the dubtitles, which are also annoying. The HKL has a much inferior PQ and the only extra worth keeping is the Donnie Yen interview, the commentary is awful.

I think I'm going to wait for a proper IVL release.

I imagine it will be a long wait.
