Nah, you just wish you was able to author DVDs with custom subs. :D
You'd see french DVDs under a different light, then.

Born to Fight - with English subs... from a label called "Red Sun". Hmmm... looks like a bootleg to me. The text on the back of the cover is in Thai and under it in English. The cover art seems to be copied, too.

LOL!

I'd edit that post as well. It's "instead" and not "insteaNd".

Besides... a full-stop is missing as well. :D

If you're after the original cut w/ original score than the R4 is fine. You have to remember that the film was low budget and thus probably shot on cheap film stock, so there'd be not much improvement probably. Plus you get English subbed extras.

Eastern Eye's Ong Bak is a good option for most people, but I'm gonna get the thai dvd. It cost about 6$ and has better picture quality. I don't care about extras that much (I hardly have enough time for movies...). And since the subbed bootleg was based on the thai dvd, I won't have to time subs myself.

I don't know how born to fight compares, but again the thai disc is so much cheaper...

Oh, big price difference is a good point. Fair enough.

Anyway they look almost exactly the same to me and I'm happy with my R4.

Batman; The Animated Series Season 2 4-disc set, for 7,50 euro!!!
It was 10 pounds at bol.com, used a voucher-code to get a 4,50 discount, making it 5,50 plus 2 euro shipping...

It's the first time I'm using that etailer, and it's Dutch only it seems, so I'm hoping it will all go well.

edit: Also just ordered Ultimate Spiderman vol. 1 hardcover ( :D ) for 15 pounds at play.com! It's 352 pages or something.
