Member HAZ Posted October 28, 2013 Member Share Posted October 28, 2013 The reviewer can see a difference between the original blu ray set & the re-release? What the heck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member HAZ Posted October 28, 2013 Member Share Posted October 28, 2013 Millions of dollars wasted for nothing new and shit that doesn't work. Do you think this cost millions? If so, Shout Factory is nuts! I am positive this set is going to be deeply discounted in 6 months or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member newgen2005 Posted October 28, 2013 Member Share Posted October 28, 2013 Just finished my homemade fixed Blu-ray of Fist of Fury! I used the original upscaled set which contains the Mandarin audio track. Took all the audio tracks from the upscaled set (removing the upscaled video) and added the tracks to the new set HD video. Stuck it onto a 50gb disc, now the Fist of Fury disc is how it should be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member reason108 Posted October 29, 2013 Member Share Posted October 29, 2013 Just got my set over the weekend at a discounted price from Groupon. Other than the missing mandarin track from the FOF blu, its not a bad set. There are a few glitches here and there on disc 11. But, can`t tell if its in the source or the production of the disc. The Disc 11 menu sounds as if it has 2 different soundtracks laid over one another. I like some of the extras. Bob Wall is, well, he is very opinionated. At this point, this could become my favorite BL box set (even with some of the issues). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuck it onto a 50gb disc, now the Fist of Fury disc is how it should be! I could not get past that minty blue-green look of FOF that is on the HD transfer. I ended up just watching the dvd instead. At least it does have the mandarin soundtrack. I would hope that at some point in the future SF would color correct this and add the mandarin track back in and perhaps release this on a single disc release.

Member winehouse Posted October 30, 2013 Member Share Posted October 30, 2013 I have a new level of respect for their operation now. In this day in age it is very uncommon for "CONSUMERS" (I do not care for that demeaning title for human beings) not getting screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Asmo Posted October 30, 2013 Moderator Share Posted October 30, 2013 I assume it's implied that further runs of the box set will get the corrected FOF? I don't really want to buy the set in future and have to go about replacing a disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
