The Owl vs Bombo Carry on Pickpocket By Hook or By Crook Filthy Guy as The Filthy Guy Dirty Tiger, Crazy Frog Enter the Fat Dragon thanks in advance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Omni Dragon Posted September 11 Member Share Posted September 11 First of all welcome to KFF. I know Enter the Fat Dragon has an English dub: Also, Filthy Guy: As for the others while I've not come across English dubs for them, I wouldn't be surprised if they have or had English dubs. English dubs were a big part of the exporting process, even beyond the English-speaking world as it was often easier for some countries to translate from English rather than Chinese. They were often the version used to sell to exhibitors at film markets as well. Finding out about the original English dubs for The Big Boss and Rumble in the Bronx, that Hong Kong TV stuff dubbed into English for export to Indonesia plus other things, makes me think there's a lot more missing dubs out there than we realise, I do think the ones with involvement from the bigger studios, like Golden Harvest and D & B, likely would have had English dubs commissioned for them. I'm less sure about the other studios, like Gar Bo in the case of Dirty Tiger, Crazy Frog. I also wonder if for some of those movies it was felt the comedy wouldn't translate. Although that didn't seem to stop them dubbing other strange comedies if they had big action sequences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Battojutsu Posted September 11 Author Member Share Posted September 11 Thanks very much dude, while I enjoy Kung Fu films subbed my preference and main enjoyment is from the old school dubs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
