Hmmm... cut in what way? Less footage than the Thai version? Because I think Bey was talking about footage that has been shot, but never inserted into any version of the film.

the premier asia is the same as the thai release but the different score.

Exactly. I don't think there is any other difference (apart from picture and sound quality).

How is the new score?

Great, as good and better in many ways.

thelostdragon · Post by **thelostdragon** » 27 Jan 2006, 20:00

I like the new score. I wouldn't say that it fits the film better or worse. It's just a different approach to score the film. Especially, during the final fight, the music is just awesome.

However, I also have to say I'm happy to own all three versions of the film.

Didn't Bang Rajan recieve a different score from PA as well?

I thought the music on BR fitted very well.

Swing Girls is the only film I've seen on your list Bisc - but I liked it

A fun, lighthearted J-comedy with some fine jazz tunes on the soundtrack

BiscLimpkit · Post by **BiscLimpkit** » 28 Jan 2006, 14:50

Aye I knew you enjoyed it.

In fact, every film on that list is Japanese. I'll report back once I watch them all.

Recieved Fist of Fury: Platinum Edition from CD-WOW

It comes with a nice slipcase.

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 31 Jan 2006, 09:21

Also recieved Equilibrium from CD-WOW rentals

grim_tales · Post by **grim_tales** » 31 Jan 2006, 13:55

Brad do you have "Fist of Fury: PE" yet?

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 01 Feb 2006, 18:48

Ordered Full Contact yesterday from CD-Wow, using a 1 pound link & 1 pound voucher combi

, so it only costs me 5 pounds!

I just got a message it has been dispatched. Cool to see the combi working again

Havent seen the movie ever before. Overall reviews/opinions are quite positive, so should be cool..

thelostdragon · Post by **thelostdragon** » 01 Feb 2006, 19:02

I take it you got the HKL version.

So funny that Gary Daniels joins Bey Logan during the audio commentary.

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 01 Feb 2006, 19:06

Yeah, the HKL version (I think, I hope)
Wow... didnt know about GD joining 'B. Log' (from now on I'm cutting his name, as I feel it's more hip so it will appeal to the all-important young demographic. I'm sure B. Log will understand.

)
Gary Daniels had absolutely nothing to do with Full Contact, did he!? So why bother bringing him in!? Like I said, I havent seen the movie yet, so perhaps he is in it. I dont know.

thelostdragon · Post by **thelostdragon** » 01 Feb 2006, 20:30

Gary just happened to be in HK and he and Bey met on a day when he recorded the commentary, so he just took Gary along with him.

BiscLimpkit · Post by **BiscLimpkit** » 01 Feb 2006, 20:52

Ordered Crash. That's the 2004 film... not the 1996 erotic car movie.

Ah, that's cool of Bey. Does it have a positive or a negative effect on the commentary though!? I hope it won't dissolve into chatter...
