I picked up a few Chan DVDs at Kims in NYC, I was in total geeek mode being that I dont get out there often so I made a boobo on one of them.
I think this Thunderbolt DVD is by Thakral, it is Full Framed and has no English audio or Subs, not sure if its Region one or All, dosnt say.
My question is if anyone knows of any other release of this flick on DVD?

Thanks a bunch
Doc

I don't believe so. I have the HK offical VCD, and at least it's letterboxed.

Thunderbolt DVD releases:

NTSC:

- China Thakral All region, Full Frame, Eng Subs
- Taiwan Funny All region, 2.35, Eng Subs, Mandarin only

PAL:

- Scandanavia, 2.35, PAL, No eng subs
- Germany, 2.35'ish, PAL, No eng subs
- France, 2.35, PAL, English (Dunno if this is a full dub, I doubt it, probably refers to the one or two lines of english in the film as does the German rls) and French listed audio.

The Funny dvd is probably your best bet for NTSC with subs, at the disadvantage of Mandarin only...Going to Taiwan anytime soon? The thakral dvd is liveable for the price, but not much beyond that due to the full frame transfer.

Yhanks a bunch for the info.
Guess I'll just hang onto this one till I find the other one.
That kills me though!
I did get Armour of Gods 1 and 2 from Media Asia and Mega Star.
AOG 2 is bare boned just the movie with subs, has this been released in a better version?
Better yet, send me in the direction of a list of some sort so I dont torture you with questions!

You might be able to find this cheaper, but that's a start...

Only HK $25.00 = $3.21 US! It'd be about 7 dollars shipped.
