Not really my cup of tea. I'll stick with KICKPUNCHER.Oh shoot. Sorry. Then i cant remember who the other person i'm supposed to tag that was also a fan of this movie.
BUT, you havent seen this film yet?????????!!! Blasphemy! Go watch it! It's called The Protector on our side. Came out in 2005.
All these fights look choreographed within an inch of their life.This movie has some of the best fights I've seen. Tony Jaa makes Jackie Chan look like cartoon.
Those covers are SWEET! @AlienKing Thanks for the tag Amigo! Man, I feel sorry for your bank account!AHHH. Holy Jesus! I love all the covers, but especially C and D.

I remember when Tony Jaa first came out, his thing was that he didn't use any stunt doubles and didnt use any wires either. I dont know if that's true for his movies now but it's true for this and Ong Bak.All these fights look choreographed within an inch of their life.
(Like when movies have sword fights that have people making swords clank together, and you know the characters are not even going for a an actual physical body blow)
yes, totally agree. and the fight sequences are complete takes, not hollywood-type quick edits which are actually stitches of short takes to give the impression of a continuous sequence.I remember when Tony Jaa first came out, his thing was that he didn't use any stunt doubles and didnt use any wires either.

He must be using trampolines then. There are shots in here that could not be done without assist.I remember when Tony Jaa first came out, his thing was that he didn't use any stunt doubles and didnt use any wires either.

(Or is he really running and jumping 30 feet over a guy ?!)
He's the real deal man! Have you never seen any Tony Jaa films? I'm a bit surprised.He must be using trampolines then. There are shots in here that could not be done without assist.

And the one-shot staircase sequence? That was so beautiful. I've been waiting a LONG time to see ANY limited edition for this movie. All I have right now is the Amaray.yes, totally agree. and the fight sequences are complete takes, not hollywood-type quick edits which are actually stitches of short takes to give the impression of a continuous sequence.
his somersaults off the wall and running on top the shoulders of many men are all without wires.
i especially like the sequence when he took down 50+ men and we can see clearly how he did it, not the chop chop close-up edits. gee, i need to watch it again. wonder if this release would have a better transfer with a solid bit rate than the US release?
Won't this release be only German sub, just like the current German Amaray?And the one-shot staircase sequence? That was so beautiful. I've been waiting a LONG time to see ANY limited edition for this movie. All I have right now is the Amaray.
I hope it's a better transfer. Also, it says this has a 20min longer version. I dont think i've seen that one.
Funny thing about this movie, When it was first released, I *unknowingly * pirated it, watched it twice, and then it got a limited release in North America about a year after. So i took about 10 of my friends from school at the time to watch it in the theatre. For some reason, there was a huge line up before the movie. But all of us just went in front of the line and stood there, no one said anything .
Probably. That is always the kicker- getting a foreign film from another foreign country almost guarantees that there will be no english subs.Won't this release be only German sub, just like the current German Amaray?
I think the 20 min longer is the same as the current US release 110 min. The current German release is only 90 min.
I'm going to ask a friend to check out the HK release because blu-ray.com lists it having LPCM 7.1 audio. If that is correct then I hope it has the best video transfer too.
True. Let us know what you find.Won't this release be only German sub, just like the current German Amaray?
