I was thinking about it,
but the lack of English audio tracks on Enter the Dragon turned me off. It was originally in English.
The Other sets from North America aren't as good quality, video and audio wise.
But I don't know, I just prefer them over the Asian ones, even though overall the Asian Ultimate Bruce Lee is better quality.
Just my opinion.

Here's the best Bruce Lee box set available in my opinion:

I have both the HKL (R2) and IVL sets. Slightly better pic quality on the IVL but it lacks the english dubs (which are really funny) and the hilarious Bey Logan commentaries. IMHO, those commentaries alone put the HKL above the IVL set. Stay away from the FOX set. They are the worst ones; non anamorphic and only the english dub. Fox was suppose to release the IVL set in R1 last October but still nothing 5 months later.

The best set is in my opinion is the IVL set. It has Enter the Dragon and Game of Death 2, which are really good. HKL doesn't have that, but HKL, like mrhan (nice name!) said, has extras. The commentaries are great but it also has the reconstructed Game of Death. The Korean set is the same as the IVL set but lacks those two movies.
Picture and sound go to IVL but extras is easily HKL. What's more important to you?

Thanks! Someone finally noticed why I use that name. I've been using it for 8 years now and no one ever asked me why. As for the original post; I think he should just get both. However, I think he should also get the R1 2 disc ETD since it is better than the IVL version; contains the original language and the cool Blood and Steel doc.

I have the HKL set. At the time of its introduction, I asked around and the consensus was that only ETD featured Bruce Lee's real voice.
Is this true of the IVL set? Do any of its language tracks feature the original actors voices?
In the IVL "Way of the Dragon", what language does Chuck Norris speak with the Original Cantonese Soundtrack ?

No prob, mrhan. I love Jim Kelly's delivery, 'Bullshit, Mr. Han, man.' Classic.
Anyway, here's a piece of info. Bruce Lee dubbed the african-american gang member from WotD.
I agree, getting with both sets is the best idea. The extras are great on the HKL set and the IVL set has more movies, and DTS tracks (and is NTSC, which I prefer...).

Pulled this out 'cause I didn't want to start a new thread. Anyways, is there any truth to the rumour that HKL is going to release the uncut version of The Big Boss in 2006.
Check out pics of the cut scenes.

Well,
