no need to thank me. btw, musta yung bruce lee mo?
nyaiks.. pressure..
anyhow.. my simple opinion regarding the bruce lee collection (by spectrum studio):
packaging- never seen anything like this before...
- very elegent thick silver leather-like (paper ala LOTR extended) cover for the case with chinese characters inscription
- collectible case has a magnetic lock to fasten/close the large wallet-like boxset
- sturdy binding, tin ends in every page, foil to cover sides of page, big bruce lee commemorative photos opposite each disc holder
- gold inscription on top of every disc holder
- elegant felt-like black cloth in case interior
- comprehensive booklet (in chinese) detailing the life of bruce lee. many collectible pictures premiered in the book.
transfers and soundtracks- superb cantonese dts audio soundtrack for all 4 films
- superb transfers except for the way of the dragon (kinda out of focus in some parts) not sure if they have found the original negative of this film
- subtitles in english
- unedited anamorphic 2:35:1 presentation of all 4 films (with some mild nudity and violence)
features- menus are easy to navigate and elegantly designed
- interviews with celebrities (US and Chinese stars/fillm makers/influencers) regarding bruce lee
- trailers (old and new) of each film
- archives of bruce lee's photos
- Star Movies documentary about bruce lee
overall, this is a collectible and (i must say with no strings attached) a show off dvd set tribute for one of Time Magazine's 100 Most Influential People of the 20th century. this collection, though not complete, is particularly better than its r1 release. it is evident that much effort and labor have been given to produce this collection.
price though is slightly higher than an average boxset.. near LOTR gift set price..
but it's worth it..
hope our producers/studios here in manila would be inspired to produce something with this caliber of craftsmanship.. this dvd boxset proves that it is indeed possible..
more similar asian dvd boxsets please...
cheers.
