Young & Dangerous series??
Hi, all!!
My wife is a big fan of Ekin Cheng and so
I am planning on purchasing this series of movies, for her.
I was wondering if anyone had any tips on which DVD's I should get. It seems that there might be different companies producing them. If so, is there a difference in picture quality from the different companies???
Thanks in advance for any help in this matter.

Y&D 5 is a pain to watch. but you might as well get the whole series and two of the off-shoots.
Y&D 1,2,3,4,5
Born to Be King (Y&D 7, The last in the Y&D Series, IMHO one of the best)
Y&D 6 (The Prequel) - You can watch this before or after you see Y&D 1
Those Were the Days (Story of Chicken)
Portland Street Blues (Story of Sister 13) -I have had so many defects of this Universe disc though-
These are all pretty darn cheap, that's why I got the whole series a while back.

Y&D series is one of my favorite series. I'm a big Ekin fan myself, and I recommened getting 1-3, and if you like those, you should get the other parts of the series (such as prequel, 3-6)
The only watchable versions are from Mei-Ah and Universe. I wouldn't get any ritek verions because they only have a dub, meaning the original language (cantonese track) is missing. Any DVD without the original track is not worth buying.
The universe discs are much better than mei-ah though.
I wish I bought these dvds cheaply, I bought these dvds when the first came out (these were my first dvds) and they costed me 40 bucks each!
you could probably get these for about $15 each.

I've picked up up numbers 1-5...
Only watched the first two so far, as I've been pretty busy.
They came highly recommended from a friend.

Eh, what's this? Another series for me to get? Goody!
I'll have to check out the reviews...
Based on the comments here though, sounds like I would enjoy them.
cheers,
Gabe

I've bought almost all the series including some of the spinoffs, but I've only watched 1-4 and the prequel so far. The series is awesome. Jordan Chan is badass. He's the main reason why I keep watching more. As for Ekin....eh he can't act. He's always the same in each movie. Bb bb bb bb bb bbut I think its easily overlooked as the series is very enjoyable. Gigi Lai is so cute in this series. ^_^
BTW, a lot of people seem to like the prequel.... but if that's the only Y&D movie you watched, you shouldn't base the rest of the series off of that. I didn't like the prequel at all, but I love the series. The prequel is a totally different type of movie than the rest of the series. (I think it was a different director)
