DVD Talk review of 'Rocky Anthology'
I read Ian Jane's DVD review of Rocky Anthology at http://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/read.php?ID=13671 and...
Anyone know if they finally got the subtitles right during the fight scene in Rocky IV this time? On the previous two DVD releases, they omitted the very import translations of Drago, his manager, and the consulate guy. All it says if you turn on the subtitles is... 'speaking Russian'. This is a very bad omission from the theatrical and VHS releases... it totally changes the essence of the movie.
I am wondering if this version has corrected the problem before I spend hard earned money buying it for the third time.

The subtitle problem was fixed prior to this release. MGM quietly released Rocky IV with an anamorphic transfer and fixed subtitles after the initial box set release.
