it's a DVD-9, smartass. and i want YOU to compare the 2 DVDs once the HK one is out. let's see if you admit which is better... but you won't, as you're a internet hero.

and tell me which brentwood dvd is better. Please :)

you know, you're a laughing stock. I can sense your hatred right over here, you're just empty words and nothing behind it. i really feel sorry for you.

No, its proper PAL and a DVD 9 - I can see it in front of me. Please don't lie.

The German DVD is fine indeed.

And as those Fortune Star Legendary Collection DVDs are mostly DVD-5 I do not see a problem.

Furthermore the HK Video-CD was cut. And it is always a gamble with Fortune Star DVDs if they will be uncut or not.

If you have a credit card you should be able to order the DVDs from amazon.de.

It is easy if you have an Amazon account be it Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk.

Stupid thing is the Germans give Martial Arts Movies funny and sometimes stupid titles.

So for a non native speaker it is hard to find out what is what.

E.G. The Tournament has the title Todestritt der Gelben Katze something like Deadly Kick of the Yellow Cat.

Just don't ask. :tongue:

For the 5 bucks this will cost, I will grab the Joy Sales release, if only to compare the subs to the German DVD. I wonder if they will use the same translation?

The thing I notice about the German releases is the timing in their subtitles is sometimes way too fast. I've seen it on Seaman No. 7 and a couple of others: excellent translations marred by subtitles that go by too quickly. Or maybe my eyes are getting old, lol.

Well, Angela Mao has great kicks, and she's Taiwanese?, and lastly a woman, sometimes referred to sexually as a kitten, so I can somewhat understand how they'd come up with that.

It's racist, sexist and derogatory, but a great number of the films from that era had questionable titles that simply wouldn't fly these days.

Just got around to watching the new Joy Sales DVD---I haven't seen the other versions, but this print looks GREAT! Awesome movie, too--maybe my favorite Angela Mao one. Can't go wrong with this one at $6.

The German DVD is proper progressive PAL (Joy Sales is PAL>NTSC with blended frames/interlacing), contains the English dub and better subtitles.

Both this and the Japanese King DVD are uncut - I imagine Joy Sales is the same, but like 'Stoner', it maybe a different master. The Joy Sales VCD is missing two segments (during the Thai fight and towards the end when the duo are informed of the school's current state prior to leaving).
