Guest morgoth Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Sweet. Are Joysales movies sold in any stores? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chinatown Kid Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I have the Screensound DVD from Australia and the quality is great, anyone know if the Joysales version is worth upgrading to or is the Aussie DVD still the best around?

Guest chen lung Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 It has nice extras and the international version for sure (we don't know what JS will offer, even if it does say 'English'). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chinatown Kid Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Thanks chen lung, I guess I'd better wait and hear some opinions on this Joysales version before upgrading because the Aussie DVD may still be the best.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dager in the cotton Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 stick with oz print it's a great disc, loved tha footage of jimmy arriving at the airport in his MFHK suit, talk about bring your own wardrobe productions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest killer meteor Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Oz print is cropped from scope to 1.85:1. That's terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Linn1 Posted April 2, 2007 Member Share Posted April 2, 2007 while I like the extras on the disc, the film being cropped could use some improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Shaolin Patriot Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 However, missing from the list of extras is the director's commentary, which I understand is available. Perhaps it is an Australian rights issue to include it on discs other than region 4 (Australia). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Chinatown Kid Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Well if the JS version has the original 2.35 aspect ratio I will consider upgrading, I doubt it could beat the extra's on Screensound Australia's version though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shukocarl Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 A nice extra would have been to bring Jimmy & George together for a chat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Chinatown Kid Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Please let us know Tommy, I saw on Yesasia that the aspect ratio is 2.35:1 w/s so if that's true I'll be upgrading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Markgway Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 Menucaps confirm that it will be the English language version. There's not even a Chinese language option on the disc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Brigadier Chow Posted April 4, 2007 Member Share Posted April 4, 2007 I think this must be an error on the part of DDD.House. All other Fortune Star releases have been in Cantonese/Mandarin w/ eng sub option. Unless this film was originally filmed in english, which I doubt.

Guest Chinatown Kid Posted April 4, 2007 Share Posted April 4, 2007 I think this film was originally filmed in English being a Australian/Hong Kong(Golden Harvest) co-production. The director, Brian Trenchard Smith, was Australian. I believe they dubbed it in Chinese for the HK release. Tai Seng was selling the chinese dubbed version on vhs before it became available on DVD by Screensound Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Linn1 Posted April 5, 2007 Member Share Posted April 5, 2007 it was originally English. But I'm shocked it doesn't at least have a Cantonese or Mandarin soundtrack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest killer meteor Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Game Of Death and Game Of Death II didn't have Chinese tracks because FS used the English versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Markgway Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 I can only assume there's no Mandarin language track than matches the English language version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chen lung Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Spannick said the Mandarin version on VHS was shorter than the international English version, so that's probably why. Look at 'Game of Death', that didn't have Cantonese/Mandarin because they were differently edited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
